FAQ

Bitzer compressor rack installation in Struandale

How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a ice cream & frozen dessert plants site in Struandale?

Struandale sits on the N2 and R75, so our Gqeberha dispatch reaches most Struandale Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency compressor rack installation runs 24/7 because heat shock during hardening causes ice crystal growth.

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 R404A/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 rack installation 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?

Ice Cream & Frozen Dessert Plants run at −30 °C to −25 °C at 80–85% RH, with compressor rack installation performed against −40 °C to +5 °C suction groups. Heat shock during hardening causes ice crystal growth
