EXPERT PLC ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE REPAIR SERVICES

Has your PLC been damaged by dust, moisture, extreme temperatures, vibration, or chemical exposure? ROC Industrial offers expert repair services for PLCs that have suffered environmental damage. We can assess the extent of the damage, perform necessary repairs, and often restore your PLC to reliable operation, saving you the cost of a full replacement.


Understanding Environmental Damage to PLCs


Industrial environments can be harsh. Even PLCs designed for rugged conditions can be damaged by:


  • Dust and Particulate Contamination: Dust and other particles can accumulate inside the PLC, causing overheating, short circuits, and component failures.

  • Moisture and Liquid Damage: Exposure to water, oil, coolant, or other liquids can cause corrosion, short circuits, and component failures. This includes both direct exposure and high humidity.

  • Extreme Temperatures: Operating a PLC outside of its specified temperature range can damage internal components and lead to premature failure.

  • Vibration: Constant vibration can loosen connections, damage solder joints, and cause premature wear on components.

  • Chemical Exposure: Corrosive chemicals or fumes can damage the PLC's housing, seals, and internal components.
