ASTRO-MED Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full ASTRO-MED product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Dash Series Chart Recorders
Portable and benchtop chart recorders for continuous process monitoring, temperature logging, and multi-channel data acquisition. Common issues include stylus wear, paper drive motor failures, and amplifier card faults affecting measurement accuracy.
Astrocal Calibration Systems
Precision calibration and simulation units for in-field verification of process instruments. Repair focuses on DAC linearity errors, display faults, reference circuit drift, and connector corrosion affecting output accuracy.
Signal Conditioning and Amplifier Modules
Modular conditioning cards for converting sensor signals into compatible measurement ranges. Common faults include input op-amp failures, zero/span potentiometer drift, and PCB trace corrosion in humid plant environments.
Astro-Med Data Loggers
Standalone and networked data acquisition devices for long-term monitoring in process plants. Failures typically involve SD card interface issues, real-time clock drift, sensor input channel faults, and firmware corruption.
Strip Chart Accessories and Power Supplies
Replacement PSUs, paper supply mechanisms, and sensor modules for Astro-Med systems. Common repairs include linear regulator failures, transformer winding issues, and paper drive clutch replacement.

Common ASTRO-MED Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in ASTRO-MED equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Chart recorder stylus not marking or fading marks — Astro-Med Dash series stylus heating element burns out from continuous operation, or ink cartridge dries out in high-ambient-temperature Indian plant floors. Paper-to-stylus contact pressure may also degrade.
- ✓Paper drive motor sluggish or jammed paper feed — Astro-Med paper drive mechanisms accumulate dust and carbon deposits in humid industrial environments. Stepper motor coil winding faults or clutch slippage also reduce torque, causing paper feed delays or stoppage.
- ✓Amplifier card input signal not responding or drifting — Astro-Med signal conditioning modules experience op-amp failures due to power supply transients or sensor overload. Zero and span potentiometers drift from thermal cycling and vibration in manufacturing plants, causing measurement offset errors.
- ✓Astrocal display blank or showing incorrect simulated values — Astro-Med Astrocal calibrators suffer from LCD display ribbon cable corrosion, microcontroller EEPROM memory faults, or DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) output linearity drift from age and power cycling.
- ✓Data logger not recording or timestamps incorrect — Astro-Med iServer and iLogger units develop SD card interface failures, real-time clock (RTC) battery drain, or file system corruption from power loss. Sensor input connectors corrode in humid pharma and food-processing environments.
- ✓Power supply regulated voltage unstable or dropout — Astro-Med linear power supplies degrade due to transformer winding insulation breakdown, electrolytic capacitor aging in high-temperature areas, and regulator IC thermal runaway from poor heatsink contact in dusty environments.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASTRO-MED Repairs
Do you repair Astro-Med equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics Electronics repairs the complete Astro-Med product portfolio — chart recorders, calibrators, signal conditioners, and data loggers. We offer PAN India door pickup from all major cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Kolkata. All repairs are performed at our ISO 9001-certified facility in Vadodara, Gujarat, with 10-15 day turnaround for most Astro-Med instruments.
Do you provide calibration certificates for Astro-Med instruments after repair?+
Absolutely. After repairing any Astro-Med calibrator, data logger, or signal conditioning module, Synchronics provides ISO 17025-accredited calibration certificates traceable to NIST standards. All output accuracies, linearity, and temperature coefficients are documented. Certificates are valid for 12 months and meet pharma GMP, automotive IATF, and defense standards required by Indian manufacturers.
What is the typical turnaround time for Astro-Med chart recorder repair?+
Most Astro-Med Dash series chart recorders are repaired within 10-14 days — including stylus replacement, motor testing, and calibration. If amplifier cards require replacement, the timeline extends to 14-21 days due to parts procurement. We offer express service (5-7 days) for critical production lines; contact our technical team to discuss urgency.
Can Synchronics repair older Astro-Med instruments no longer in production?+
Yes. Synchronics has extensive experience repairing legacy Astro-Med models from the 1990s and 2000s — including older Dash series, vintage Astrocal units, and discontinued signal conditioning modules. We maintain an inventory of hard-to-find components and perform reverse-engineering when exact replacements are unavailable. Older instruments are often more cost-effective to repair than replace.
Do you offer on-site calibration and preventive maintenance for Astro-Med systems?+
Yes. Synchronics dispatches field engineers to Indian manufacturing plants for on-site calibration, preventive maintenance, and condition assessment of Astro-Med chart recorders and data acquisition systems. We provide maintenance contracts with quarterly visits, spare parts stocking, and 24-hour emergency support for critical production monitoring applications.
How do I send my ASTRO-MED 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 ASTRO-MED 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 ASTRO-MED 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 ASTRO-MED 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.
