KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS Equipment We Repair — By Category
KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS Product Lines We Repair
Our engineers are trained on the full KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS product range. Below are the major product families we service.
Electromagnetic Flow Meters (EMF)
KOBOLD electromagnetic flow meters measure conductive liquid flow with no moving parts. Common repair issues include electrode fouling, signal loss, ramp calibration drift, and amplifier module failure in harsh chemical environments.
Turbine Flow Meters
Mechanical turbine meters for precise volumetric measurement in oil, coolant, and water circuits. Typical failures include bearing wear, rotor damage, pickup coil degradation, and frequency signal loss under high-flow conditions.
Level Switches & Transmitters
Float, capacitive, and ultrasonic level instruments for tank monitoring and overflow prevention. Common issues include float stiction, probe scaling, capacitance sensor drift, and connector corrosion in aggressive chemical storage.
Pressure Transmitters
Electronic pressure transducers delivering 4-20mA output for system monitoring and process control feedback. Repair needs include diaphragm rupture, signal zero-drift, IP67 seal failure, and amplifier electronics malfunction.
Temperature Probes & Sensors
Pt100 and Pt1000 RTD temperature sensors with integral or remote transmitter housings. Thermal drift, sheath corrosion, internal short circuits, and transmitter calibration loss are common failure modes in high-temperature applications.
Flow Control Valves
Proportional and solenoid-operated control valves for dosing and regulation in batch and continuous processes. Repair involves solenoid coil rewinding, spool clearance restoration, seal replacement, and integrated electronics troubleshooting.

All-India Service
Couriered repairs accepted from any city in India. Doorstep pickup available in Vadodara, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Surat, Chennai, and more.
Common KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS Equipment Faults We Fix
Based on 30+ years of repair data, these are the most frequent failure modes we see in KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS equipment arriving at our workshop.
- ✓KOBOLD EMF electrode fouling and signal loss — Conductive deposits, mineral scaling, or biofilm on electrode surfaces in untreated water or slurry lines. This reduces signal conductivity and causes erratic or zero flow readings even when liquid is flowing.
- ✓KOBOLD turbine flow meter pickup coil failure — Magnetic pickup coil degradation due to high-frequency vibration, thermal cycling in processing lines, or mechanical impact from particulate matter striking the rotor. Results in loss of frequency pulse output and false or zero flow indication.
- ✓KOBOLD level switch float stiction and false alarm — Sticky or sluggish float movement caused by accumulation of sludge, oil residue, or corrosion on the guide rod inside the chamber. Float gets stuck in the up or down position, triggering false high/low level alarms.
- ✓KOBOLD pressure transmitter 4-20mA zero drift — Long-term thermal drift in the electronics module, contamination in the pressure reference chamber, or degraded diaphragm elasticity in temperature-cycling environments. Transmitter output shifts away from 4mA at zero pressure.
- ✓KOBOLD temperature probe RTD open circuit failure — Thermal stress fracture in the thin platinum wire element inside the probe sheath, often from rapid thermal cycling or mechanical shock. Probe becomes unresponsive or reads erratic values above/below actual temperature.
- ✓KOBOLD solenoid valve coil burnout — Continuous solenoid energization from control circuit failure, voltage overspike from interrupted inductive load, or moisture ingress into the coil winding. Coil resistance increases to infinity and valve fails to actuate or becomes stuck.

Frequently Asked Questions — KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS Repairs
Do you repair KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS equipment anywhere in India?+
Yes. Synchronics repairs the complete KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS product range — flow meters, level switches, pressure transmitters, temperature probes, and control valves. We offer PAN India door-to-door pickup from Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Bangalore, and all major industrial cities. All repairs are performed in our certified lab in Vadodara, Gujarat, with same-day or next-day collection available.
Why does my KOBOLD electromagnetic flow meter show zero flow when liquid is flowing?+
Fouling of the electrodes is the most common cause in KOBOLD EMF meters. Mineral scaling, biofilm, or conductive deposits on the electrode surface prevent signal generation. Synchronics cleans the electrode assembly, re-establishes the calibration, and inspects seals. We also check your process fluid for high particulate content that may require a strainer upgrade upstream.
What is the typical turnaround time for KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS repairs?+
Standard KOBOLD instrument repairs average 5-7 working days including diagnostics, repair, calibration, and test report. Critical instruments like flow meters and level switches in continuous processes can be expedited to 48 hours. We provide on-site support for emergency troubleshooting at refineries and chemical plants across India.
Can you recalibrate KOBOLD transmitters to my process specifications?+
Absolutely. Synchronics recalibrates KOBOLD pressure, temperature, and flow transmitters to your exact range requirements. We use NABL-accredited calibration equipment traceable to national standards. Each transmitter receives a detailed calibration certificate with before/after data, accuracy plots, and our 12-month warranty against drift.
Do you stock spare parts for KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS?+
Yes. Synchronics maintains inventory of common KOBOLD replacement modules including RTD probe elements, solenoid coils, pickup coils, float assemblies, and diaphragm seals. For obsolete or long-lead KOBOLD spare parts, we work with authorized distributors and can source parts within 2-3 weeks. Emergency overseas expediting is available for critical production lines.
How do I send my KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS 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 KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS 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 KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS 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 KOBOLD INSTRUMENTS 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.
