Local context
Working in Jacobs
We service Jacobs Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Jacobs, Durban, with access off the N2 and M4. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

FAQ
Bock compressor overhaul in Jacobs
How fast can a technician service Bock equipment at a dairy processing plants site in Jacobs?
Jacobs sits on the N2 and M4, so our Durban dispatch reaches most Jacobs Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency compressor overhaul runs 24/7 because chilled-water temperature rise stalls the pasteurising line.
Do you stock OEM components for Bock systems?
Yes — Bock shaft seals, suction filters and gasket kits. Bock (Germany) equipment on R404A/R717/R744 charges is supported with the fast-moving spares held at our Pretoria North workshop and non-stock items brought in on OEM order.
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
