Repair & maintenance service of a variety of scientific and industrial instruments constitutes a sizeable fraction of diverse activities of CSIO. This specialised service is rendered through three Service & Maintenance (S&M) Centres located in different regions of the country-one each at Delhi  and Chennai, besides S&M Division at CSIO, Chandigarh. The S&M Centres contribute towards saving of large amount of money by providing adequate service facilities  which otherwise would have been spent for buying new equipments. The beneficiaries of repair & maintenance services include hospitals and medical institutes, industry, educational institutions, R&D laboratories / institutes, etc. The S&M Centre at Chennai also undertakes R&D projects besides offering services in energy audit, calibration, etc.

  

These Centres not only put back to   use defective instruments but also  contribute towards saving of a large amount of   scarce foreign exchange which otherwise would have been spent to import the  substitutes. Repair of some of the instruments involves  development work for   redesigning the circuits with components available indigenously and  for  incorporating modifications in the instruments with a view to improving their   performance. Besides revitalizing the defective equipments of industry, R&D, medical and  educational institutions, Annual Contract Servicing facilities were  also provided.

The  services offered by these Centres are broad based taking an integrated view of user's requirements and aim at offering a range of services e.g.

  • Repair & Maintenance of instruments ensuring minimum down time to the extent possible;

  • Contract Servicing wherein repair & maintenance responsibility w.r.t instrumentation shall  be that of  the S& Centres;

  • Offer services for establishing medical instrumentation labs including advice on procurement  of appropriate type of instruments;

  • Undertake  installation  and commissioning  jobs;

  • Provide test and calibration facilities;

  • Undertake design & development work necessitating circuit  modifications in respect of costly instruments where  spares are either too costly or are not available.

The service & Maintenance  Centres have also been conducting training programmes, both for the users as well as for service & maintenance  personnel  on operation, handling and preventive  maintenance as well as on technical intricacies involving maintenance. Some of the important  training programmes organised by these Centres are:
