Bulk handling fleets on Kooragang and at Carrington
The bulk terminals on Kooragang and at Carrington keep a steady stream of trucks, loaders and service vehicles working. Fine product dust settles into condenser fins and cabin filters, and a blocked condenser is one of the most common reasons a cab runs warm by mid-afternoon.
We come to the site, work out whether it's a leak, a blockage or a tired compressor, and fix it where the machine is parked. Bigger machinery AC repairs, like an evaporator or a TX valve, get quoted first and planned around your shifts.
Mixed fleets along Industrial Drive and in Mayfield West
Around Mayfield and Mayfield West, Industrial Drive and the old steelworks land carry a mix of port-related industry, engineering shops and logistics yards. The fleets there are rarely one type: a few prime movers, a pack of service utes and maybe a crane truck.
We can work through the lot in one visit. That saves you booking an aircon tech one week and an auto electrician the next, and one business ends up knowing every vehicle in your yard. If your trucks run out through Sandgate to the depots at Hexham and Tomago, we cover those yards as well.
Salt air and the harbour
Gear parked near the harbour lives in salt air. Over time it eats into aluminium condensers and the plugs and earths that AC clutches, beacons and lights depend on, and that's how you end up with a slow leak or a fault that comes and goes.
A regular check finds corrosion early, while it's still a clean-up and not a new condenser. For gear that sits by the water all week, it's worth doing before every summer.
What a Newcastle site visit can cover
The usual starting point is an AC check on a few vehicles. While we're there, we look over the rest of each one and quote anything we find, so you decide what gets done and when.
- Fleet aircon regas with leak testing and a performance check
- Compressor, condenser, evaporator and receiver drier replacements
- Auto electrical fault finding on trucks, utes and plant
- Fleet vehicle fit-outs for service crews working around Wickham and the city
- Respro hi-vis asset numbers that stand up to high-pressure washdowns
- Braided harnesses for machines that live in dust and salt
