Accuload III End Of Life
We receive weekly calls inquiring about parts for the FMC Accuload III preset. As time goes by, parts are becoming harder and harder to come by as the Accuload III is now 7 years obsolete. Per the letter below from FMC, the factory is no longer building new boards and supply is EXTREMELY limited on even rebuilt boards at this point. Parts and pieces including keypads are in limited supply as well. We currently have some stock, but it's getting harder and harder to keep items on hand. We can't recommend strongly enough at this point that if you have an Accuload II or III in a critical spot in your plant to look at your upgrade options today.

What to Do?
If you currently have and Accuload II or III, now is the time to start looking to upgrade.

You have two upgrade options...
1) Perform an Accuload III to IV upgrade. The III to IV upgrade entails swapping the ALIII front cover and internal boards with a new ALIV front cover which comes with the new boards already housed in the cover. Going this route reduces the time and expense of swapping out your current preset with a new unit. The new front cover gets bolted onto your current housing and the wiring already in place can remain to be re-landed.
2) Purchase a new Accuload IV. This is your only option if you have an Accuload II.

If you have an Accuload II or Accuload II to III upgrade, this unit will have to be replaced with a complete Accuload IV. Unfortunately the old Accuload II body does not match the new Accuload IV front cover.
How we can assist
If you have an Accuload II or III and are interested in discussing your upgrade options, please contact us today. We can send a tech to your site to take a look at what you have, review your options and provide a quote not only on the new equipment, but install as well if needed.
