Industrial sensors are various types of sensors used in various industrial scenarios such as energy, petroleum, chemical, metallurgical, power, mechanical manufacturing, automotive and other industrial manufacturing processes. They generally refer to devices and equipment that can convert the sensed force, heat, light, magnetism, sound, humidity, electricity, environment and other measured quantities into electrical signals for output in the industrial manufacturing process.

Deploying sensors and sensing technologies has multiple advantages, including predictive and preventive maintenance. They not only ensure faster transmission of measurement data, but also improve accuracy, thereby improving process control and enhancing asset health. The new sensors are capable of wired and wireless transmission, providing real-time, continuous data feed from assets and processes. This allows supervisors to have a more comprehensive understanding of the process factory. Enterprises utilizing sensors are more connected, secure, and agile than ever before.
