AMISTAR Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full AMISTAR product range. Below are the major product families we service.
AMISTAR VFD Series (AV-E, AV-H, AV-Pro)
Three-phase and single-phase variable frequency drives ranging 0.5 kW to 315 kW with vector control, sensorless operation, and integrated thermal protection. Common issues include IGBT module failures, firmware corruption, and control board overheating under high ambient Indian plant conditions.
AMISTAR Soft Starters (AS-3P, AS-Single, AS-Digital)
Electronic soft-starting solutions with current ramp control (0-60 seconds adjustable) for reducing inrush current in pump, compressor, and fan applications. Typical faults include thyristor short circuits, control relay failures, and parameter memory loss after power surges.
AMISTAR Power Factor Correction (PFC) Modules
Capacitor-based and active PFC units designed for reducing reactive power in Indian mills and manufacturing plants. Prone to capacitor breakdown due to humidity and temperature cycling, and control card relay chatter in dusty environments.
AMISTAR Control & Monitoring Panels
Integrated control panels featuring motor protection relays, digital displays, manual/auto transfer switches, and Modbus RTU/TCP connectivity. Failures often stem from transformer burnout, relay contact wear, and RS-485 communication module degradation.
AMISTAR Energy Meters & Analyzers
Three-phase digital energy meters and power quality analyzers with isolated communication interfaces for remote monitoring. Common failures include voltage transformer saturation damage, CT (current transformer) burden overload, and pulse output optocoupler failure.

Common AMISTAR Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in AMISTAR equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓AMISTAR VFD IGBT module catastrophic failure — IGBT short circuits occur after thermal cycling or voltage transients in the drive's power stage. Indian plants with poor earthing and frequent load spikes are particularly vulnerable. Failure typically manifests as complete loss of drive output or tripping on over-current within 2-3 cycles.
- ✓AMISTAR soft starter thyristor short or gate drive failure — Thyristors degrade when subjected to voltage spikes from motor cable reflections or when gate-drive circuits fail due to continuous pulse firing at low power settings. Humidity in Indian climates accelerates solder joint corrosion on the firing PCB.
- ✓AMISTAR drive loss of parameter memory and firmware corruption — Power supply noise or interrupted EEPROM writes during parameter updates cause memory corruption. Dust accumulation on heatsinks forces thermal shutdown during parameter save, disrupting the write cycle and corrupting firmware blocks.
- ✓AMISTAR control board relay contact chattering and intermittent output — Mechanical relay contacts in AMISTAR panels deteriorate after 10-15 million cycles or when exposed to vibration-prone environments (foundries, textile mills). Arc erosion and contact bounce cause intermittent signal loss.
- ✓AMISTAR soft starter non-responsive to control inputs and stuck in run mode — The control microcontroller becomes unresponsive due to failed watchdog timer reset (brownout condition), corrupted control firmware, or broken RS-485 communication lines in multi-unit systems. Thermal runaway in the control section also causes CPU lockup.
- ✓AMISTAR VFD tripping on fault code 'E12' or 'E08' (thermal and short-circuit warnings) — E12 indicates excessive heatsink temperature due to blocked cooling fins (common in Indian cotton mills and cement plants with high dust ingress). E08 suggests DC bus under-voltage or inverter short-circuit detection triggered by transient spikes.

Frequently Asked Questions — AMISTAR Repairs
Do you repair AMISTAR equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete AMISTAR product range including VFDs, soft starters, power factor correction modules, control panels, and energy meters across all series. We offer PAN India door-step pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Indore, and all major industrial cities. All repairs are handled at our ISO 9001 certified facility in Vadodara, Gujarat with guaranteed turnaround of 5-7 working days.
What is the typical cost of AMISTAR VFD repair versus replacement?+
AMISTAR VFD repair typically costs 35-50% of replacement price. For example, repairing an AMISTAR AV-E2S0004G (0.5 kW) costs around Rs. 4,500-6,500 versus Rs. 12,000-15,000 for a new unit. High-power drives (75 kW+) show even greater savings. Synchronics provides upfront quotes and warranties repaired units for 12 months against manufacturing defects.
How do I know if my AMISTAR drive needs repair or just parameter reconfiguration?+
If your AMISTAR drive is tripping on fault codes (E01, E08, E12, E15) repeatedly, losing parameters after power cycling, or producing no output despite proper control signals, hardware repair is needed. If the drive powers on but motor speed is sluggish or acceleration is slow, parameter tuning in the drive menu (V/F curve, ramp time, current limit) may resolve the issue. Contact Synchronics for free diagnostic evaluation — we can assess via phone or video call whether your unit needs repair or programming adjustment.
Does Synchronics hold AMISTAR spare parts inventory?+
Yes. Synchronics stocks critical AMISTAR spare components including IGBT modules, DC bus capacitors, control relay clusters, thermal paste, and firmware programming files for all major VFD and soft starter series. Emergency repairs requiring component replacement can often be completed within 24 hours. We also source authentic AMISTAR parts directly from authorized distributors to ensure OEM compatibility and performance warranty.
Can Synchronics help with AMISTAR firmware updates and parameter backup?+
Absolutely. We provide AMISTAR firmware updates, parameter extraction and backup services, and migration support when upgrading from older drive models to newer AMISTAR series. We use AMISTAR bootloader tools to safely reprogram flash memory and validate checksum integrity. We also maintain detailed parameter sheets for textile mills, cement plants, and other Indian verticals, enabling quick parameter download into replacement units if a drive fails catastrophically.
How do I send my AMISTAR 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 AMISTAR 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 AMISTAR 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 AMISTAR 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.
