Local context
Working in Prospecton
We service Prospecton Industrial, Durban Container Terminal approach and the surrounding blocks of Prospecton, Durban, with access off the N2 and M4. Sub-tropical coastal humidity keeps wet-bulb temperatures high year-round, which raises evaporative condenser duty and accelerates coil corrosion.

FAQ
Carel temperature mapping & validation in Prospecton
How fast can a technician service Carel equipment at a avocado packhouses site in Prospecton?
Prospecton sits on the N2 and M4, so our Durban dispatch reaches most Prospecton Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency temperature mapping & validation runs 24/7 because chilling injury greys pulp below 4 °c.
Do you stock OEM components for Carel systems?
Yes — Carel EVD Evolution drivers, NTC/ratiometric probes and pGD terminals. Carel (Italy) equipment on R404A/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 temperature mapping & validation 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 GLOBALG.A.P. documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Avocado Packhouses run at +4 °C to +7 °C at 90–95% RH, with temperature mapping & validation performed against Client setpoint band, typically +2 °C to +8 °C. Chilling injury greys pulp below 4 °C
