FAQ

How fast can a technician service Bitzer equipment at a seafood processing & fisheries site in Halfway House?

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?
Seafood Processing & Fisheries run at −40 °C blast to −25 °C hold at 85–95% RH, with screw compressor service performed against −45 °C to +5 °C evaporating. Slow freezing forms large ice crystals and ruins texture
