RAFI Equipment We Repair — By Category
RAFI Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full RAFI product range. Below are the major product families we service.
RAFI LUMOTAST Push Button Switches
Illuminated pushbutton control switches with integrated LED indicators and contact blocks. Common failures include LED burnout, contact welding, and elastomer ring degradation causing loss of tactile feedback or electrical continuity.
RAFI Selector Switches (Rotary & Multi-position)
Heavy-duty rotary selector switches for manual mode/auto mode selection, emergency stop circuits, and multi-function control. Repair focuses on worn bearing surfaces, corroded contact springs, and mechanical detent mechanism failure.
RAFI Safety Relay Modules
Modular safety relays for fault-tolerant switching and emergency stop circuits meeting ISO 13850 and EN 61508 standards. Failures typically involve contact pitting, coil insulation breakdown, and PCB relay driver circuit failure.
RAFI Control Panel Switch Assemblies
Pre-assembled switch banks combining multiple RAFI push buttons, selector switches, and indicator lights in factory-configured modules. Common issues include loose terminal connections, corroded bus bars, and internal wiring harness insulation failure.
RAFI Indicator Lights and Signal Columns
Modular stackable indicator lights with LED and incandescent options for machine status visualization. Failures include LED failure, internal resistor burnout, lens cracking, and socket contact corrosion.
RAFI Contact Block and Spring Cartridge Assemblies
Replaceable contact modules and spring mechanisms for RAFI switches providing fail-safe operation. Defects stem from contact material erosion, spring fatigue, and mechanical wear reducing switching reliability.
Why Choose Synchronics for RAFI Repairs?
PCB-Level Expertise
We repair down to the component level — not just swap boards. Our engineers identify root causes, replace failed IGBTs, capacitors, processors, and gate drivers on RAFI equipment.
Fast Turnaround
Standard 7–10 working days. Express 3–5 days available for critical breakdowns. Emergency same-day/next-day service for unplanned downtime.
6-Month Warranty
Every repaired unit ships with a 6-month comprehensive warranty on parts and labour. Our repair success rate is over 94% across all brands.
All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common RAFI Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in RAFI equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓RAFI push button LED bulb failure or dimming — Extended operating hours cause LED or incandescent bulb filament burnout, or internal resistor thermal degradation reducing brightness to unsafe visibility levels for operators.
- ✓RAFI selector switch stuck or grinding in rotation — Mechanical wear in the bearing surfaces, accumulated dirt ingress, or corrosion of the rotary shaft creates friction. Loss of lubrication in sealed bearing chambers accelerates the problem.
- ✓RAFI safety relay module contacts welded or intermittent — Inrush current spikes during high-current circuit switching cause contact pitting and metal transfer. Moisture ingress leads to corrosion bridging adjacent relay contacts.
- ✓RAFI control panel loose terminal connections arcing — Thermal cycling and vibration loosen crimp terminals and bus bar fasteners over years of operation. Poor quality rework solder joints also fail under load.
- ✓RAFI indicator light lens cracked or discolored — Thermal stress from rapid on-off cycling, impact damage from maintenance activities, or UV degradation of older polycarbonate lenses causes cracks and opacity reducing signal visibility.
- ✓RAFI push button spring mechanism loss of tactile feedback — Repeated mechanical actuation fatigues the internal compression spring, reducing spring rate. Elastomer seals degrade over time, allowing dust contamination that increases friction.

Frequently Asked Questions — RAFI Repairs
Do you repair RAFI equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the full RAFI product range including LUMOTAST push buttons, selector switches, safety relay modules, and control panel assemblies. We offer PAN-India door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, and all tier-2 cities. Repairs completed in our Vadodara, Gujarat facility with same-day testing and certification.
Can RAFI safety relay modules be repaired or must they be replaced?+
RAFI safety modules can often be repaired if the failure is isolated to a single relay cartridge or contact block. Synchronics replaces faulty cartridges while retaining the base module, reducing costs. However, modules with PCB circuit damage or coil insulation breakdown require full replacement. We provide ISO 13850 / EN 61508 test certificates with every safety module repair for regulatory compliance in Indian manufacturing.
What is the turnaround time for RAFI push button and selector switch repairs?+
Standard RAFI switch repairs — LED replacement, contact cleaning, spring replacement, and tactile testing — are completed in 3-5 working days. Complex panel assemblies with multiple units require 7-10 days. Synchronics offers express repair for critical production lines affecting Indian industry output. We provide real-time repair status via WhatsApp or email to minimize your production downtime.
Are replacement RAFI parts available if the entire switch cannot be repaired?+
Synchronics stocks OEM RAFI replacement contact blocks, spring cartridges, LED bulbs, lenses, and sealing kits for fast repairs. For discontinued RAFI models, our engineers source compatible alternatives meeting original electrical and mechanical specifications. We maintain relationships with authorized RAFI distributors across India for genuine part procurement at competitive pricing.
How do I know if my RAFI control panel needs repair or just cleaning?+
Light cleaning of dust and debris may restore function temporarily, but root electrical faults require professional diagnosis. Signs of needed repair: intermittent switching, stuck selector switches requiring excessive force, dim or non-functioning LEDs, or arcing at terminals. Synchronics offers free diagnostic testing. Send high-resolution photos of the panel plus fault description, and our engineers will advise whether repair or replacement is cost-effective for your Indian manufacturing operation.
How do I send my RAFI 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 RAFI 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 RAFI 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 RAFI 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.
