We were fortunate to have Paul Brebner, Akron Regional Sales Director for Europe, Middle East and Africa, with us in South Africa at the time for some additional product training. Paul gave expert training on how to repair and re assemble the Ozzie monitors as well as the Akron range of hand held nozzles.
Inspection of the units showed that they'd been in service for some time but gave no accurate indication as to their age so we did some digging and found that these monitors had been supplied in November 1992.
This was their first service in 18 years!
The parts required for the total repair of the units was minimal, mostly seals.
For us the most surprising part of this repair was that the total repair cost of the 8 Ozzie monitors came to less than what you would pay for 1 new mobile monitor, giving us further confidence in the quality of Akron products.
The post repair site test was done at the Chevron Refinery early in December. To view the flow test video go to http://www.youtube.com/user/dosetech1#p/a/u/0/WtGkgq-cElY
