ABB India and Witt India Partner to Boost Safety and Efficiency in Infrastructure Projects

ABB India and Witt India, a top manufacturer of tunnel ventilation systems, are setting new standards in tunnel ventilation technology. ABB’s advanced smoke extraction motors are now being used to improve safety and reliability in key infrastructure projects across India. This partnership aims to make road tunnels safer and more efficient for commuters.

ABB’s smoke extraction motors power Witt India’s Banana Jet Fans, which are essential for managing airflow, controlling smoke, dispersing pollutants, regulating temperature, and enhancing energy efficiency in tunnels. These systems ensure safe and comfortable tunnel environments, meeting high safety standards. Notable projects using these systems include the Rewa-Sidhi Tunnel in Madhya Pradesh and the Kuthiran Tunnel Highway in Kerala.

“Together, with Witt India, we are driving progress in infrastructure safety and efficiency, ensuring secure and smooth travel through India’s rapidly expanding network of road tunnels. ABB’s focus towards innovation will ensure high-quality solutions enhancing safety for commuters. The integration of ABB’s smoke extraction motors and jet fans in these tunnels aim to augment safety standards as they provide effective smoke management by rapidly extracting smoke during fire incidents, ensuring clear visibility and safe evacuation routes,” said Sanjeev Arora, President – Motion Business, ABB India.

This collaboration showcases the commitment of both companies to innovation, reliability, and safety in infrastructure development. Infrastructure is a key driver of India’s economy, aiming for a $5 trillion milestone in the next three years. As India undertakes numerous projects, increased capital expenditure is accelerating sustainable development.

“With our strategic partnership with ABB India, we are transforming safety and operational efficiency in key infrastructure projects in the country. Our collaboration represents a focal point in our mission to elevate safety standards and enhance efficiency across India’s vital infrastructure projects. ABB’s motors combined with our Banana Jet Fans provide unparalleled efficiency to tunnel operators resulting in reduced OPEX and CAPEX costs. With ABB’s innovative solutions complementing our commitment, we are poised to deliver state-of-the-art tunnel ventilation systems, ensuring safer travel experiences for all,” said Vinod Kumar Jalagam, Managing Director, Witt India.

ABB motors are designed for high reliability and performance under extreme conditions, handling temperatures of 250°C and 300°C for up to two hours. These motors ensure dependable operation during smoke extraction and save substantial energy when used with VFDs during normal operations. Their successful deployment in critical tunnel projects across India enhances safety and sets new standards in tunnel ventilation.

ABB Motion, a global leader in motors and drives, focuses on creating a more productive and sustainable future. With over 140 years of expertise in electric powertrains, ABB supports customers and partners in achieving better performance, safety, and reliability with its innovative, energy-efficient solutions.

ABB is a technology leader in electrification and automation, committed to a more sustainable and resource-efficient future. With over 105,000 employees, ABB connects engineering and software to optimize manufacturing, movement, power, and operations.

WITT India Pvt. Ltd., an Indo-German joint venture with WITT & SOHN AG, Germany, specializes in high-efficiency jet fans, axial flow fans, and radial (centrifugal) fans. WITT & SOHN AG has over 70 years of experience in industrial fan technology and noise and vibration control.
