ABB 17ATEX2237X Smart Sensor For Mounted Bearings

ABB Ability Smart Sensor for Mounted Bearings, model V1, is a battery-powered wireless device certified for hazardous locations under SIRA 17ATEX2237X, designed to mount directly to Dodge mounted bearings to monitor bearing health. It combines temperature and vibration sensing and streams data via Bluetooth Low Energy to ABB Ability apps or compatible gateways, leveraging the Nordic nRF52832 SoC for reliable wireless performance. The Ex ia IIC 150°C (T3) Ga and Ex ia IIIC Tl 46°C Da approvals cover operation in demanding environments, with ambient temperatures from -30°C to +105°C. This compact sensor is built to withstand harsh industrial conditions and provides remote visibility into bearing condition without intrusive inspection. Typical applications include conveyors and material-handling systems in mining, cement, and grain-handling operations where mounted bearings are common, enabling maintenance teams to track wear, misalignment, or lubrication issues and make informed service decisions based on real-time health data.
