FAQ

Kide controlled atmosphere installation in Wilsonia

How fast can a technician service Kide equipment at a macadamia processing site in Wilsonia?

Wilsonia sits on the N2 and N6, so our East London dispatch reaches most Wilsonia Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency controlled atmosphere installation runs 24/7 because moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade.

Do you stock OEM components for Kide systems?

Yes — Kide panel locks, gaskets, heated frames and door hardware. Kide (Spain) equipment on R404A/R134a 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 controlled atmosphere 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?

Macadamia Processing run at +8 °C to +15 °C at 55–65% RH, with controlled atmosphere installation performed against 1–3% O₂, 0–5% CO₂ at −0.5 °C to +2 °C. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
