Local context
Working in Marlboro
We service Marlboro Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Marlboro, Sandton, with access off the M1 and N3. 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
Bitzer screw compressor service in Marlboro
How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a craft breweries site in Marlboro?
Marlboro sits on the M1 and N3, so our Sandton dispatch reaches most Marlboro Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency screw compressor service runs 24/7 because a stalled crash cool ruins a fermentation batch.
Do you stock OEM components for Bitzer systems?
Yes — Genuine Bitzer valve plates, gasket sets, oil pumps and OLC-D1 protection modules. Bitzer (Germany) equipment on R404A/R134a/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 screw compressor service 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 SANS 10147 documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Craft Breweries run at −4 °C to +12 °C at 60–70% RH, with screw compressor service performed against −45 °C to +5 °C evaporating. A stalled crash cool ruins a fermentation batch
