Solar to Benefit Africa is technically equipped in such a way that in most cases is able to fix/remedy even the most difficult/challenging issues/faults. One advantage is that we use fixed repair prices so that you know in advance how much a repair will cost you. Naturally, the items are thoroughly tested after repair and is there a standard warranty of 12 months given with every repair. Whether you want to have an old S5 PLC, a brand new Touch Panel or a Simodrive to be repaired, your product is in good hands at Solar to Benefit Africa and you will have it rapidly returned in good working order.

The benefits of a repair

  • Fixed prices: you know beforehand what a repair will cost you, thus no (unpleasant) surprises later.
  • High quality repair: this includes a complete cleaning of your product.
  • Quick repair cycle: on agreement, emergency repairs are also possible.
  • Full Test: wherever possible every article is comprehensively tested after repair. A standard repair report is included.
  • Preventive maintenance and testing: we can also carry out tests for you if you have doubts about the way your product is operating.  The preventive replacement of obsolete and/or wear sensitive components is also possible.
  • ‘No cure, no pay’: You do not have to pay anything for the repair if it is not successful for whatever reason.
  • No transport costs: we return the repaired items at our own cost with the exception of express or taxi costs.
