FAQ
Bitzer compressor overhaul in Perseverance
How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a port & export cold terminals site in Perseverance?
Perseverance sits on the N2 and R335, so our Gqeberha dispatch reaches most Perseverance Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency compressor overhaul runs 24/7 because missed vessel windows on temperature-out-of-spec loads.
Do you stock OEM components for Bitzer systems?
Yes — Genuine Bitzer valve plates, gasket sets, oil pumps and OLC-D1 protection modules. Bitzer (Germany) equipment on R744/R717 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 PPECB documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Port & Export Cold Terminals run at −25 °C to +2 °C at 85–95% RH, with compressor overhaul performed against −45 °C to +12 °C evaporating. Missed vessel windows on temperature-out-of-spec loads
