EK Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full EK product range. Below are the major product families we service.
EK Frequency Converters (COMPAX)
Modular AC/DC frequency converters designed for precision spindle drives, conveyor systems, and material handling. Common issues include DC bus capacitor failures, IGBT module degradation, and firmware corruption under thermal stress or electrical transients.
EK Power Supply Modules (PS-DIN)
DIN-rail mounted switched-mode power supplies rated 24-48 VDC for control panels and automation systems. Failures typically stem from input surge transients, electrolytic capacitor aging, or thermal shutdown triggered by inadequate cabinet ventilation.
EK Servo Drive Systems (SERVOSTAR)
Closed-loop servo amplifiers for precision positioning in textile machinery, printing presses, and machine tools. Common faults include encoder signal loss, commutation errors, and power stage failures under peak acceleration loads.
EK DC Motor Controllers (DMC-PRO)
PWM-based DC motor controllers for steel rolling mills, paper machinery, and heavy-duty lifting equipment. Field failures include thyristor gate drive circuit degradation, armature feedback noise immunity issues, and thermal runaway in humid coastal climates.
EK Embedded Control Modules (ECM-2000)
Compact PLC-style controllers with analog/digital I/O for distributed automation in textile, sugar, and chemical processing plants. Typical issues include EEPROM bit-flip corruption, analog input conditioning failure, and relay contact welding under inductive loads.
EK Regenerative Braking Units (RB-MODULE)
Energy feedback systems for variable frequency drives in elevators, cranes, and textile winding machines. Common faults include freewheeling diode leakage, DC link voltage overshoot, and capacitor bank derating under rapid deceleration cycles.

Common EK Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in EK equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓COMPAX converter no output, LED error code E1.3 — Input bridge rectifier diode failure or main DC bus capacitor short circuit. Electrolytic capacitors in COMPAX modules degrade under sustained 60+ degree ambient temperatures common in Indian summer operations, especially in poorly ventilated enclosures.
- ✓PS-DIN power supply thermal shutdown, intermittent 24V output — Electrolytic input filter capacitor drying — common in dusty textile mill environments where airflow is blocked by lint accumulation. Secondary-side buck converter IC overheating from aged thermal interface material or undersized heat sink.
- ✓SERVOSTAR servo drive phase loss fault, unable to commutate — Encoder signal cable damaged by vibration in spinning frame environment, or Hall effect sensor magnet loss due to thermal derating above 80 degrees. Gate drive IC malfunction causes missing PWM pulses on one power stage leg.
- ✓DMC-PRO motor controller thyristor gate failure, no ramp-up control — Gate drive optocoupler aged or contaminated with conductive dust from motor brush wear. Happens frequently in open-frame mill installations where moisture and carbon dust accumulate. Bootstrap capacitor failure prevents gate voltage rise.
- ✓ECM-2000 controller EEPROM read errors, program not starting — EEPROM bit-flip caused by electrical transients on unshielded input cables in EMI-heavy sugar factory environment. Power supply brownout during program download corrupts bootloader. Flash memory endurance limit reached after multiple firmware updates.
- ✓Regenerative braking unit RB-MODULE DC link overvoltage trip, lift malfunction — Freewheeling diode reverse recovery current spikes during rapid deceleration of loaded elevator cage. Capacitor bank voltage rating marginal for peak grid harmonics on 415V Indian supply. Temperature coefficient of capacitor shifts capacitance at 50+ degree junction temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions — EK Repairs
Do you repair EK equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full EK product range — frequency converters, power supplies, servo drives, motor controllers, and embedded control modules. We offer PAN India door pickup service from all major cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, and tier-2 industrial clusters. All equipment is serviced at our factory in Vadodara, Gujarat, with turnaround typically 5-7 working days.
What makes EK equipment difficult to repair and why choose Synchronics?+
EK converters and servo drives use proprietary commutation algorithms and firmware that require specialized diagnostic knowledge. Many Indian service centers lack the embedded systems expertise to read and reprogram EK EEPROM memories. Synchronics employs factory-trained technicians with direct access to EK service documentation, enabling us to repair firmware corruption, restore encoder calibration, and validate gate drive circuits — skills that 80% of local technicians do not possess.
Can Synchronics repair EK COMPAX frequency converters with burnt IGBT modules?+
Yes, we routinely repair COMPAX converters with failed IGBT stacks. We test the gate drive circuits, DC bus capacitors, and freewheeling diodes for secondary failures that may have caused the IGBT short. We replace IGBT modules with factory-matched parts, perform full system commissioning under DC load, and provide a 12-month warranty. For textile mills in Gujarat and Maharashtra, we offer 48-hour express repair service.
What is the typical cost of EK servo drive SERVOSTAR repair versus replacement?+
SERVOSTAR servo drives typically cost INR 80,000-250,000 new depending on power rating. Synchronics repair costs range INR 15,000-45,000 including parts, labor, and testing — saving customers 70-80% versus buying new. We diagnose issues (encoder failure, gate drive IC, capacitor) in 24 hours and provide transparent quotes before repair. For critical textile machinery where downtime costs exceed INR 50,000 per hour, quick repair is more economical than stock-keeping of spare drives.
Are EK control modules compatible with Indian 415V three-phase industrial power?+
Yes, EK power supplies and frequency converters are rated for 380-415V 3-phase supply standard in India. However, many Indian factories experience voltage sags, harmonics, and transient spikes that exceed EK design margins. Synchronics recommends installing input EMI filters and recommends stabilized supply where possible. We repair transient-damaged EK modules regularly and provide recommendations for power conditioning to extend equipment life in Indian industrial environments.
How do I send my EK 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 EK 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 EK 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 EK 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.
