Local context

Working in Newcastle Industrial

We service Newcastle Industrial, Madadeni and the surrounding blocks of Newcastle Industrial, Newcastle, with access off the N11 and R34. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

FAQ

What pressure testing and gas compliance certificates are provided?

Every compressor overhaul job closes with a pressure test record and gas handling Certificate of Conformance issued under SANS 10147 by a SAQCC Gas registered technician, plus the HACCP documentation your auditors expect.

What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?

Dairy Processing Plants run at +2 °C to +4 °C at 80–85% RH, with compressor overhaul performed against −45 °C to +12 °C evaporating. Chilled-water temperature rise stalls the pasteurising line
