Coates Power & HVAC Deploys Industrial Chiller to Visy To Maintain Vital Milk Bottle Production Line
Sydney, Australia – Coates Power & HVAC, a business division of Coates, Australia’s leading equipment hire and solutions provider, has been able to mobilise an 800 kW industrial chiller to help Visy maintain a vital production line, completing a delivery and installation from interstate in 36 hours.
Visy, Australia’s leading packaging solutions provider, faced a disruption to its milk bottle production line and required an industrial chiller to keep the production going as planned. It engaged Coates Power & HVAC for a suitable chiller to be installed as soon as possible.
The company arranged for an 800kW chiller to be mobilised and delivered from New South Wales to Victoria, a chiller which represented the largest of its kind ever deployed by Coates’ South Business Unit. Coates Power & HVAC pre-tested the chiller to ensure it was in working order and facilitated delivery of the equipment to site where it was craned into position, connected to the fixed plant services and commissioned. Soon afterwards, the chiller had the production line back up and running, delivering volumes of cold water into the site’s chilled water storage tank.
“We got the call on Wednesday afternoon, delivered Thursday and had a Coates chiller operating by Friday morning; we turned it around in 36 hours from time of order,” said Paul De Villiers, Business Development Manager for Coates. “The launch of Coates Power & HVAC equips us with a range of services and equipment that we can deploy to minimise the impact of critical plant failures impacting production in the Manufacturing sector. This is a great example of being able to deliver and install vital equipment quickly to get things back up and running for our customers.”
Building on the company’s existing capabilities, Coates Power & HVAC was launched earlier this year to provide turnkey solutions for power, compressed air, climate control and process cooling, with an extensive range of custom-built equipment and end-to-end service and support. Coates Power & HVAC will help keep an organisation’s operations running, from temporary systems and short-term bridging solutions to long-term strategies. Ideal for use in industrial, engineering, mining, oil & gas and manufacturing environments, the company also expects significant interest in regional areas across Australia where its branch network and teams of plant maintenance people can provide local support to Power & HVAC systems.
Coates Power & HVAC provides solutions for potentially hundreds of use cases across Australia, including ventilation, temperature control systems, dehumidification, air quality services, temporary air and power generation/distribution, hybrid power systems and more.
