FAQ
Bitzer screw compressor service in Estoire
How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a ice cream & frozen dessert plants site in Estoire?
Estoire sits on the N1 and N8, so our Bloemfontein dispatch reaches most Estoire Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency screw compressor service runs 24/7 because heat shock during hardening causes ice crystal growth.
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/R744/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 HACCP documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Ice Cream & Frozen Dessert Plants run at −30 °C to −25 °C at 80–85% RH, with screw compressor service performed against −45 °C to +5 °C evaporating. Heat shock during hardening causes ice crystal growth
