The company provides PCB repair services and industrial equipment refurbishment for obsolete electronics and legacy control systems where OEM replacements are no longer available. Northern Power Electronics’ engineers use diagnostic techniques and component-level repair methodologies to restore discontinued circuit boards to working condition.
The company said repairing obsolete PCBs instead of replacing entire systems can help manufacturers extend the service life of machinery, reduce unplanned downtime and production losses, avoid equipment replacement, and maintain original system compatibility and performance.
Northern Power Electronics carries out its repair and refurbishment process in multiple stages, beginning with initial assessment, inspection, and testing. The company gathers system information, performs visual inspections for loose connections or damage, and conducts functional testing to observe equipment performance under normal conditions.
During the advanced diagnostics stage, engineers use multimeters, oscilloscopes, and thermal imaging devices to locate faults within the equipment. Once faults are identified, the repair and component replacement stage includes replacing faulty components and repairing damaged traces on circuit boards.
For systems requiring refurbishment, the company upgrades outdated or obsolete components to improve performance and reliability.
After repairs and refurbishment, Northern Power Electronics conducts quality assurance testing to verify that equipment meets original performance standards. The company stated that service work may include a one- to two-year warranty depending on project scope.
The final documentation stage includes testing records and service documentation following repair and refurbishment activities.
Northern Power Electronics also highlighted a recent refurbishment project involving a Control Techniques UNI5401 Unidrive for a marine client. According to the company, the drive was obsolete with no replacement available. Engineers identified the faults, sourced compatible parts, completed refurbishment work, and conducted testing to return the system to operation without requiring a full upgrade.
