These drives are from 1980 - 1990 and all such equipment is now rated "Obsolete". That is how Siemens and ABB and most other drive manufacturers protect themselves from customers that ask for help that isn't available any more. Obsolete used to mean "very old" but it now seems that the limit is 10 years. After that time, you had better keep a private stock of spare parts and documentation.
I have lots of old documentation and also spare parts for drives, but even I think that it is too much job to try and dig out the needed information. I think that chiplonkar should get new drives. It is usually quite simple to fit a new drive instead of an old one. And it costs less than to have someone like me have a go on it. Sorry, but that is how things are these days.

Skogs' suggestion might be appropriate - without support, the cost of a new drive might be the cheapest scenario!
RE: siemens dc drives, diagrams
Help in getting drawings will be appreciated! The manuals available for next revision has detailed component information, nothing is hidden.

I know very well about the "taking pride in maintaining very old equipment with minor rectifications". I used to do that also.
But, when I thought about it (getting older, as we all are) I realized that there would be no one after me that could do just that. And I also realized that next time, I would have the same problem. And the time after that possibly even more so.
So, I do not maintain old devices any more. The plant or customer, as the case may be, is better off in the long run if new, well-documented and servicable with today's tools equipment are allowed to replace the older ones.
It may hurt - knowing that it is "only a minor component" that needs to be replaced - but if there are five or ten people around the world involved in the search for the right documents, and then trying to get readable scans and discussing if they are valid or not, does also cost. And the procedure is not guaranteed to lead anywhere.
No, better than to replace the drive.
In an emergency, when delivery times are long and production loss is huge, there should always be valid documents and spare parts available. If they are not - then maintenance has not done their work properly
