Local context
Working in Jacobs

FAQ
Isocab ice plant installation in Jacobs
How fast can a technician service Isocab equipment at a table grape packhouses 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 ice plant installation runs 24/7 because slow pull-down causes so₂ pad burn and berry shatter.
Do you stock OEM components for Isocab systems?
Yes — Isocab panel joints, door sets and hygienic coving. Isocab (Belgium) equipment on R404A/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 ice plant 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 PPECB documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Table Grape Packhouses run at −0.5 °C to +1 °C at 90–95% RH, with ice plant installation performed against −8 °C to −20 °C evaporating. Slow pull-down causes SO₂ pad burn and berry shatter
