FAQ
Bock refrigerant retrofit & compliance in Nuffield
How fast can a technician service Bock equipment at a dairy processing plants site in Nuffield?
Nuffield sits on the N17 and R29, so our Springs dispatch reaches most Nuffield Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency refrigerant retrofit & compliance runs 24/7 because chilled-water temperature rise stalls the pasteurising line.
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 retrofit & compliance 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?
Dairy Processing Plants run at +2 °C to +4 °C at 80–85% RH, with refrigerant retrofit & compliance performed against Per replacement gas envelope. Chilled-water temperature rise stalls the pasteurising line
