CEIA Equipment We Repair — By Category
CEIA Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full CEIA product range. Below are the major product families we service.
CEIA Walk-Through Metal Detectors (TITAN, ZED)
Multi-zone walk-through archway systems for airport and port security screening. Common faults include zone sensitivity drift, false alarm rates increasing, door open sensor failures, and display panel malfunctions affecting operator feedback.
CEIA Handheld Metal Detectors (PRO-SCAN, QUADRO)
Portable metal detection wands used at entry points and secondary screening. Repair challenges include battery contact corrosion in humid Indian climates, buzzer driver failures, and sensitivity calibration loss after power cycling.
CEIA X-Ray Baggage Inspection Systems (E-SCAN)
Automated baggage and parcel screening for airports and logistics hubs. Common faults include conveyor belt motor jams, high-voltage generator faults, image display glitches, and cooling fan overload in high-ambient-temperature Indian environments.
CEIA Control Electronics & Interfaces
Digital signal processors, operator consoles, and alarm output relay boards managing detector zones and false-alarm logic. Typical failures: microcontroller crashes, relay coil burnout, communication module disconnection, and power supply aging.
CEIA Sensor & Coil Assemblies
Transmit and receive coil packs responsible for electromagnetic field generation and metal target detection. Faults arise from coil insulation breakdown, ferrite core fracture in high-vibration industrial settings, and impedance drift affecting sensitivity.

All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common CEIA Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in CEIA equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓Walk-through archway sensitivity drift and zone imbalance — Environmental electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby generators, mobile cell towers, or electrical substations; or thermal drift in metal detector coil impedance due to 45+ degree Celsius summer temperatures common in Indian industrial zones.
- ✓Excessive false alarms and erratic alarm triggering — Ferrous material buildup on detector coil cores reducing signal-to-noise ratio; corroded battery contacts in handheld units causing intermittent power; or mistuned alarm threshold settings after power outages or reset events.
- ✓X-ray baggage system conveyor stall or slowdown — Accumulation of lint, dust, or small debris in conveyor drive rollers (common in high-throughput Indian airport terminals); or ac motor coupling wear under continuous duty cycle.
- ✓High-voltage X-ray generator shutdown or intermittent exposure — High-voltage power supply capacitor aging (common after 8+ years in service); arcing or carbon tracking on high-voltage insulators; or microcontroller watchdog timer reset due to power supply ripple exceeding safe limits.
- ✓Operator display blank or garbled text and loss of alarm indication — LCD panel ribbon cable disconnection due to vibration or thermal cycling; microcontroller firmware corruption from power loss during software update; or RS-232/RS-485 communication loss between control module and remote console.
- ✓Handheld metal detector loss of sensitivity or no buzzer response — Battery electrolyte leakage corroding internal pcb traces and transistor leads (especially in humid coastal or monsoon-affected Indian regions); or capacitor drying in audio driver circuit after 5+ years in field service.

Frequently Asked Questions — CEIA Repairs
Do you repair CEIA metal detectors and X-ray systems anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics is an authorized repair partner for all CEIA product lines — walk-through detectors, handheld wands, X-ray baggage systems, and control electronics. We offer PAN-India pickup and delivery from metros including Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, and 150+ smaller cities. All repairs are done at our Vadodara facility under controlled conditions. Typical turnaround is 7-10 working days for diagnostics and repair.
What is the typical cost of CEIA walk-through metal detector repair in India?+
CEIA walk-through detector repairs range from Rs. 15,000 to Rs. 1,20,000 depending on fault severity. Simple recalibration and threshold tuning costs Rs. 8,000-15,000. Zone failure repairs (coil or sensor replacement) cost Rs. 40,000-80,000. Full control module replacement runs Rs. 60,000-1,20,000. Synchronics provides transparent quotations after fault diagnosis — we do not charge for initial evaluation.
Can Synchronics repair CEIA X-ray baggage screening system high-voltage power supply faults?+
Yes, this is a core expertise area for Synchronics. We diagnose and repair CEIA E-SCAN and DX-5000 high-voltage power supplies, including capacitor bank replacement, arc suppression, and microcontroller reprogramming. High-voltage work requires specialized test equipment and safety protocols — Synchronics engineers are trained and certified for this hazardous work. We source OEM capacitors and modules where available, or use industrial-grade equivalents tested to CEIA specifications.
How often should CEIA metal detectors be serviced to prevent faults?+
Synchronics recommends preventive maintenance every 6 months for walk-through archways in high-throughput environments like airports (typical 2,000+ passengers daily), and annually for lower-traffic facilities. Preventive service includes coil core cleaning, sensitivity recalibration, contact cleaning in handheld units, and firmware health check. This costs Rs. 10,000-20,000 per unit but prevents costly emergency downtime and extends equipment life by 3-5 years.
Does Synchronics stock CEIA spare parts and components?+
Synchronics maintains inventory of commonly replaced CEIA components — coil assemblies, power supplies, relay modules, capacitor banks, and connector sets. We source parts from CEIA directly and authorized Italian suppliers. Lead time for non-stock items is typically 10-14 days from Europe. For critical security installations, Synchronics can arrange expedited shipping at additional cost, or provide loaner equipment during repair.
How do I send my CEIA 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 CEIA 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 CEIA 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 CEIA 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.
