Repair of Defective Cable Systems
Field cables are exposed to harsh environments and the elements. Despite the best care, cables can be damaged and must be repaired.
Some repairs to repair a connector or cable can be done by the troops in the field or at a field repair location. However, refurbishing cables, rolls and systems needs to be done by the manufacturers trained experts in a professional workshop. Solifos’ offers a variety of convenient options for our customers:
- Repair in our certified facilities at Solifos Deutschland GmbH in Bonn (Germany)
- Repair through a Solifos licenced partner in the customer’s country
- Immediate exchange of defective components or entire sub-systems from Solifos’ stock and subsequent repair of the damaged equipment by Solifos or one of our licensed repair service providers
