AKRON Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full AKRON product range. Below are the major product families we service.
AKRON Process Controllers
Single and multi-loop process control systems for temperature, pressure, and flow regulation. Common issues include transmitter signal loss, PID tuning drift, and relay contact wear in humid Indian industrial environments.
AKRON Analog Signal Conditioners
4-20mA transmitter conditioning modules and isolation amplifiers used in chemical dosing and batch processing. Failures often stem from moisture ingress, component corrosion, and calibration drift over time.
AKRON Temperature/Pressure Transmitters
RTD and thermocouple interface modules with digital output. Typical faults include sensor excitation failures, output signal clamping, and EEPROM data corruption in high-vibration applications.
AKRON Datalogging and Display Modules
Graphic display panels and event recording units for process monitoring. Repair needs include LCD backlight failure, SD card read errors, and communication protocol timeouts.
AKRON Modular I/O Chassis
Distributed input/output termination for PLC and DCS integration. Common issues: relay chatter, input module power supply failure, and digital isolation optocoupler degradation in metal fab shops.
AKRON Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS)
Hardwired and programmable safety controllers for emergency shutdown and interlock logic. Failures include solenoid coil burnout, manual override switch failure, and proof-test interval violations.

All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common AKRON Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in AKRON equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓AKRON process controller output signal stuck at zero — Relay contact oxidation, DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) IC failure, or power supply collapse on the output stage. Common in high-humidity textile and chemical plants where corrosive vapor accelerates contact degradation.
- ✓AKRON temperature transmitter reads erratic or drifting values — RTD lead resistance imbalance, cold-junction reference circuit failure, or excitation current source malfunction. Vibration-induced solder joint cracks are prevalent in mill and press shop installations.
- ✓AKRON datalogging module loses stored event records — SD card memory failure, corrupted file allocation table (FAT32), or backup battery depletion. Power surges from unshielded motor cables near the display unit can also corrupt flash memory sectors.
- ✓AKRON analog signal conditioner output saturated or clamped — Input overvoltage protection diodes failed short, amplifier rail supply rail collapsed, or incorrect gain resistor value from field modification. Moisture contamination in conformal coating allows leakage between PCB traces.
- ✓AKRON modular I/O chassis unresponsive to PLC network commands — Isolated RS-485 transceiver IC failure, termination resistor network open circuit, or software addressing conflict due to DIP switch misconfiguration after power surge.
- ✓AKRON safety controller solenoid valve fails to de-energize — Solenoid holding coil short-circuit, holding relay contact welded by inrush current, or freewheeling diode failure allowing back-EMF spike to hold the relay armature.

Frequently Asked Questions — AKRON Repairs
Do you repair AKRON equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete AKRON product range - process controllers, transmitters, signal conditioners, display modules, and safety systems. We offer door pickup and delivery across India from our central Vadodara facility. Clients in Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata routinely send equipment via courier or use our local pickup service. Typical turnaround is 5-10 working days for standard repairs.
How do I troubleshoot an AKRON controller showing ERR-15 fault code?+
ERR-15 on AKRON process controllers indicates a transmitter signal loss condition - typically below 3.8mA. Check sensor wiring continuity first, then verify power to the transmitter. If the sensor is confirmed good, the input buffer IC or sigma-delta converter on the controller motherboard has likely failed. Synchronics can diagnose the exact failure point via test-point voltage measurement and provide targeted repair with full recalibration.
What is the typical lifespan of AKRON relays in high-temperature applications?+
AKRON relay contact life degrades in high-temperature and high-vibration environments common in Indian mills and forges. Contacts typically sustain 200,000 to 500,000 mechanical cycles before oxidation and pitting reduce conductivity. We recommend preventive relay replacement every 3-5 years in furnace control applications. Synchronics stocks AKRON-compatible relays with higher contact ratings (silver-alloy variants) that extend service life in harsh conditions.
Can Synchronics repair AKRON equipment with custom firmware or field modifications?+
Yes. We handle AKRON controllers with custom DIP switch configurations, third-party calibration tables, and field-installed shunt resistors. Our engineers document the existing setup, isolate the actual failed component, and restore the system to your operational state. We preserve custom scaling constants and alarm thresholds, then provide written configuration records for your next service call.
Do you offer preventive maintenance contracts for AKRON systems?+
Synchronics offers scheduled maintenance programs for AKRON process control installations - quarterly contact cleaning, annual relay replacement, and three-yearly full recalibration cycles. We customize contracts to suit textile mills, chemical plants, and food processing lines. Maintenance includes conformal coating refresh, capacitor health analysis, and documented proof-testing for safety modules. Contact our service sales team for a site audit and customized quotation.
How do I send my AKRON unit for repair?+
Pack the unit securely and courier it to our Vadodara workshop. Include a note with the fault description and your contact details. We will log it into our system and WhatsApp you a job number within 24 hours of receipt. Doorstep pickup is available in Vadodara, Ahmedabad, Surat, Mumbai, and Pune.
What is the cost of repairing a AKRON drive or PLC?+
Repair cost depends on the model and the fault. We offer a free diagnosis — once we identify the fault, we provide a fixed quotation before proceeding. Typical repairs cost 20–40% of the new unit price. We will never repair without your approval.
What warranty do you provide on AKRON repairs?+
All repaired units carry a 6-month comprehensive warranty covering the same fault and related issues. If the fault recurs within the warranty period, we repair it free of cost.
Do you provide a no-fix, no-fee guarantee?+
Yes. If we cannot repair your AKRON unit after diagnosis, you pay only the diagnosis fee (₹500–₹1,500 depending on the product). The unit is returned to you at no additional charge.
