ABB manufactures a wide range of process and industrial
process controllers and recorders. From the latest high
visibility, secure videograhic recorder to single loop controllers
and indicators, the ABB range can be used across a wide
spectrum of applications, even in the harshest of environments.
A clearer view of your process

Based on over 150 years of experience – since Taylor
started to provide customers with instruments to
help them better control their business – ABB has
developed a comprehensive family of process control
instrumentation that meets the demanding re-
quirements of a broad range of industries – water/
waste, paper, metals, food, chemicals, pharmaceuti-
cals, oil & gas. The range includes process con-
trollers, digital indicators, videographic and chart
recorders, all of which share the same high standards
of reliability and flexibility and each capable of
withstanding the harshest of process environments.
Many of the products in the range can be configured
