Working in Village Deep

FAQ
Bitzer compressor overhaul in Village Deep
How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a dairy processing plants site in Village Deep?
Village Deep sits on the M2 and N17, so our Johannesburg dispatch reaches most Village Deep Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency compressor overhaul runs 24/7 because chilled-water temperature rise stalls the pasteurising line.

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
