FAQ
Alfa Laval cooling tower maintenance in Parow Industria
How fast can a technician service Alfa Laval equipment at a macadamia processing site in Parow Industria?
Parow Industria sits on the N1 and R300, so our Cape Town dispatch reaches most Parow Industria sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency cooling tower maintenance runs 24/7 because moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade.
Do you stock OEM components for Alfa Laval systems?
Yes — Alfa Laval plate packs, gaskets and cleaning-in-place chemistry. Alfa Laval (Sweden) 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 cooling tower maintenance 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 cooling tower maintenance performed against +28 °C to +40 °C condenser water. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
