Local context
Working in Kelvin
We service Kelvin Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Kelvin, Sandton, with access off the N3 and M1. Highveld summers push afternoon ambients past 32 °C with heavy thunderstorm humidity, so condensers here are sized with a generous approach and cleaned before every summer.

FAQ
Bock refrigerant leak detection in Kelvin
How fast can a technician service Bock equipment at a seafood processing & fisheries site in Kelvin?
Kelvin sits on the N3 and M1, so our Sandton dispatch reaches most Kelvin Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency refrigerant leak detection runs 24/7 because slow freezing forms large ice crystals and ruins texture.
Do you stock OEM components for Bock systems?
Yes — Bock shaft seals, suction filters and gasket kits. Bock (Germany) equipment on R404A/R717/R744 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 refrigerant leak detection 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?
Seafood Processing & Fisheries run at −40 °C blast to −25 °C hold at 85–95% RH, with refrigerant leak detection performed against System-dependent, tested to design pressure. Slow freezing forms large ice crystals and ruins texture
