Hirschmann industrial switch repair and refurbishment.
Component-level diagnostics and repair for Hirschmann managed industrial Ethernet switches. Engineer-led, no fix no fee.
Hirschmann (Belden) switches
Hirschmann switches, now part of Belden, are widely deployed across UK process industries, power generation, oil and gas, and transportation networks. The compact OpenRail RS20 and RS30 series are the most commonly encountered models, installed in their thousands across automation networks. We carry out board-level repair on managed Hirschmann switches where replacement cost or lead time makes repair the practical choice — particularly on the RS20, RS30, RS40, RSP, and MACH series.
Common faults we fix on Hirschmann switches
-
Power input circuit failure on the dual 24VDC redundant supply — one or both inputs failing to register, leaving the switch without power redundancy or completely unpowered
-
Alarm relay contact wear causing the fault relay output to fail to trigger, removing the switch's ability to signal power loss or port failure to the control system
-
SFP slot failure on fiber-equipped RS30 and RS40 models preventing uplink connectivity to the plant backbone
-
Configuration loss after internal battery or supercapacitor failure, causing the switch to revert to factory defaults on power cycle

Hirschmann switch repair FAQs
Which Hirschmann switches do you repair?
We service the RS20, RS30, RS40, RSP, RSP-Smart, MACH100, and MACH1000 managed switch families. Contact us with your part number and we will confirm scope.
My Hirschmann RS20 has lost its configuration after a power cut — can you fix this?
Yes. Configuration loss after power cycling typically indicates an internal battery or supercapacitor failure. We replace the failed component and verify configuration retention across power cycles before return.
Can you repair a Hirschmann MACH1000 rack-mount switch?
Yes. The MACH1000 is a high-value rack-mount industrial switch. We carry out board-level diagnostics and component-level repair on these units.
