Local context
Working in Kathu Industrial
We service Kathu Industrial and the surrounding blocks of Kathu Industrial, Kathu, with access off the N14 and R380. Extreme summer ambients above 40 °C mean condensers, gas charge and high-pressure protection must be specified for worst-case, not average, days.

FAQ
Carel temperature mapping & validation in Kathu Industrial
How fast can a technician service Carel equipment at a macadamia processing site in Kathu Industrial?
Kathu Industrial sits on the N14 and R380, so our Kathu dispatch reaches most Kathu Industrial sites inside a standard callout window. Emergency temperature mapping & validation runs 24/7 because moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade.
Do you stock OEM components for Carel systems?
Yes — Carel EVD Evolution drivers, NTC/ratiometric probes and pGD terminals. Carel (Italy) equipment on R404A/R134a 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 HACCP documentation your auditors expect.
What operating envelope do you commission this equipment to?
Macadamia Processing run at +8 °C to +15 °C at 55–65% RH, with temperature mapping & validation performed against Client setpoint band, typically +2 °C to +8 °C. Moisture pickup drives rancidity and kernel downgrade
