Increasing Motor Performance through Sensors
Industrial Motor Sensors
Learn how sensors are providing data to improve efficiency and reliability of various types of industrial motors.
Bringing Efficiency to Your Motor Applications
From reducing unscheduled downtime to planning time for preventative maintenance, TE Connectivity’s (TE) sensor solutions measure and monitor industrial motor’s vibration, temperature and position to confirm your factory floor is operating efficiently. Accurate measurements in harsh environments and conditions expand the reach of sensors to various types of equipment and processes. More specifically, our engineered sensing solutions meet unique requirements in a variety of motor applications including large equipment operations to more precise functions. Additionally, sensors with multiple digital output signals and wireless sensor technologies are enabling factories to transform into smart, connected operations.
