Eaton SV Repair

Eaton SV Repair

Eaton SV repair should be taken with extreme caution and only be performed by technicians who have required training and experience with electrical equipment. Always consult an expert in the field when repairing or troubleshooting industrial electrical equipment. Most drive controllers have an internal DC bus that retains a charge after power has been cut to the drive, as a result, the power being cut doesn’t mean that the drive is safe to work with. Technicians working  with variable frequency drives and other electrical equipment must always take extra precautions to ensure proper safety measures are taken to prevent injury or even death.

Variable Frequency Drives (VFD’s) have over the past decade allowed to become a cost efficient way to reduce power costs and increase system efficiency.  Manufacturers around the globe within a wide range of industries are finding more ways to apply VFD’s to their rotating equipment. From past experience, smaller horsepower VFD’s typically fail in eight years and are more often replaced rather than repaired. Larger horsepower VFD’s last longer by virtue of repairs that often require replacement of circuit boards and other electrical components.

Eaton SV Repair Versus Eaton SV Replacement

Eaton SV repair is common for Sullair Service Centers and manufacturers who use Eaton equipment. Eaton SV repair is preferred by Sullair service centers and manufacturers because Eaton SV replacement is more expensive than Eaton SV repair. Most companies who offer Eaton SV repair don’t have the capabilities or experience to repair Eaton equipment themselves; so they outsource the VFD repair to third party repair centers, or they send it to Eaton and charge their customer more than the actual repair cost. Eaton offers SV VFD repair services for their products but it’s inefficient because Eaton always has extensive lead times for repairs, and Eaton drive users cannot wait for extensive lead times due to production downtime. Precision Electric offers complete Eaton SV repair, and all Eaton SV repair jobs are performed in house at Precision Electric.

Eaton SV repair is an asset to manufacturers who use Eaton VFD equipment because Eaton usually recommends replacing their equipment when it fails. Eaton SV VFD replacement is more expensive than Eaton SV repair. Eaton SV replacement also has extensive lead times that aren’t economical when production is down. Eaton SV repair can be performed by Certified Eaton SV Repair Centers more quickly than waiting for Eaton to produce a replacement SV VFD.
