Minelab service center in ireland. FISHER - Metal detectors. What is offered to clients

What do you need to repair a metal detector? It all depends on the nature of the malfunction. Individual breakdowns are easily eliminated independently, while others require contacting service center... Repair of metal detectors in Moscow is carried out in many service centers specializing in the repair of such equipment. Here, the faulty device will be examined by specialists who are familiar with the principles of metal detectors. They know what breaks down most often in such equipment, which allows them to significantly speed up repair work - they are helped by knowledge in the circuitry of metal detectors.

Finding a workshop that repairs metal detectors in Moscow is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. Of course, such equipment cannot be handed over to a service where TVs or computers are repaired - the circuitry is slightly different here. But is it worth taking a metal detector for repair if you can deal with some breakdowns on your own?

Most often, problems arise with those elements that are in motion and in work. Agree that the body of a car rarely breaks down, while the chassis breaks down much more often. The most common breakdown in metal detectors is the absence of a normal contact in the connector with which the search coil is connected to the device. As a result, it is not necessary to count on normal searches, since the coil is constantly turned off. What to do?

Take the metal detector to the nearest service - you will have to pay money for this. The amount of payment depends on the appetite of a particular service;
- To cope with the problem yourself is absolutely free. And with the money saved, you can buy some useful accessory.

In order to restore contact, it is necessary to tighten the contacts of the search coil connector with a regular needle. This must be done carefully so as not to break anything. To improve contact, wipe the contacts with alcohol or cologne. That's all the repairs, for which a certain sum of money would have to be “unfastened” in the nearest service center. The same applies to any other connections - the integrity of the contacts can always be restored by yourself. But in the event of complex malfunctions, one should be puzzled by the repair of a metal detector in one of the service centers in Moscow.

Metal detector coil repair

Intensive use of metal detectors often leads to the formation of cracks on plastic elements. Here the housings of electronic blocks crack, plastic armrests break, cracks appear on the search coils. It would seem that cracks cannot affect the performance of the equipment in any way - they only spoil it. appearance... But in reality, this is far from the case, because water can get into the metal detectors through the cracks. If it gets into the electronic unit, then breakage cannot be avoided - water will damage system board, causing corrosion and damage to individual elements of the electronic circuit.

Search coils are most often filled with resin, so cracks here are not always scary. But water that gets into the coil connector can cause a lack of contact - water leads to metal corrosion, causing a contact failure. It is easy to remove moisture from the coil connector, you just need to let it dry properly or dry it with a hair dryer. After that, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the contacts to remove traces of corrosion - this is done with alcohol and improvised tools. Cracks formed in plastic are sealed with any suitable glue. Any moisture resistant adhesive is suitable here, including epoxy resin. Having sealed the cracks, you will return the tightness to the connector, after which you can safely go in search, including underwater ones.

A similar repair in a service center can result in a pretty penny. Therefore, it is best to deal with such minor malfunctions on your own, without spending money on the services of repair shops and authorized service centers - you should contact here with serious malfunctions, the elimination of which requires certain knowledge and tools.

Repair is a terrible word, with which few people want to meet and which everyone is afraid of. But the reality is that nothing is eternal and sooner or later equipment breaks down, including metal detectors. Our "equipment" is designed for active use and therefore is subject to constant stress, both physical and technical. There are a lot of reasons for the breakdown. It can be anything from a physical blow to the hit of "water" in the block (if it is not protected). There are many reasons for breakdowns, but there is only one solution - you need to repair.

Online store FORTUNA expands the range of its services for the repair of metal detectors, coils and accessories to them. Until recently, the service center that serviced Koschey metal detectors expanded its capabilities. Now you can repair most metal detectors and coils from world and domestic manufacturers.

ATTENTION!

If your metal detector or coil is subject to warranty repair and the warranty period is still valid, you should definitely contact the manufacturer or the store from which you purchased the product.

Only official metal detectors with holographic tags can be repaired!

Repair of metal detectors

We carry out repairs of most metal detectors of world manufacturers. Here you can repair the following devices:

• Garrett;
• Minelab;
• XP md;
• Koschey;
• Teknetics;
• Fisher;
• Makro MD;
• Nokta DT.

This is a list of the major manufacturers. If you did not find your device in the list, you need to clarify the possibility of repair. Repair homemade metal detectors is discussed personally.

"Overdriving" (mixed up "+" and "-") power supply, water ingress into the device, as well as various physical breakdowns are solvable problems.

These are the most "popular" breakdowns that occur most often. If the device simply does not turn on for no reason, you need to hand over the metal detector for diagnostics. Diagnostics is carried out within 2-3 days, taking into account the repair queue.

Hello everyone. For a whole season, comrade Alexander, with whom we often dig, has departed with the Minelab Explorer SE device. But there was such a problem as false signals during the operation of the device. He just fantasized. So I took a metal detector from a comrade to see what was the matter. If your device suffers from the same problem and has an identical cause, then deciding to fix it yourself, you do everything at your own peril and risk. I and this blog do not bear any responsibility for your hands and the damaged device!

When I opened the device, a swollen capacitor with a leaked and dried electrolyte immediately rushed into my eyes. Definitely need to be changed!

(function (w, d, n, s, t) (w [n] = w [n] ||; w [n] .push (function () (Ya.Context.AdvManager.render ((blockId: "RA -261686-2 ", renderTo:" yandex_rtb_R-A-261686-2 ", async: true));)); t = d.getElementsByTagName (" script "); s = d.createElement (" script "); s .type = "text / javascript"; s.src = "//an.yandex.ru/system/context.js"; s.async = true; t.parentNode.insertBefore (s, t);)) (this , this.document, "yandexContextAsyncCallbacks");

The characteristics of the capacitor are as follows: 16 volts 2200 microfarads. Then I went to the radio parts store and bought a replacement for the component that was out of order. It turned out to be smaller in size, but the legs coincided in width.

Then the matter is small: to solder the old one and in its place, be sure to observe the polarity, to solder the new capacitor. The varnish that covers the printed circuit board melted a little under the soldering iron. Do not forget to wash off the rosin or flux with alcohol after soldering.

Also, in addition to soldering the capacitor, I strengthened the insulation of the two coaxial power wires, the insulation of which was pinched by the body, after which the bare metal was exposed.
