Complete supply: 300m 6″ 150psi water hoses, 2000m 240mm² cables, transport, installation, preventive/corrective maintenance. Specialized service included rigorous documentation: ASO, NR 10/20/35, APR, PPRA, Federal Police accreditation. Tecnogera is ISO 9001 certified, with a 4-hour corrective service SLA, 24-hour support.
Retail Construction Material Chain Benefits from Turnkey Emergency Climate Control
A major retail construction materials chain faced issues with their own chillers, over 10 years old, experiencing high rates of corrective maintenance. With temperatures reaching 34°C and long lead times for new equipment, the maintenance supervisor sought an immediate market solution. The first store in Rio de Janeiro had a complete equipment shutdown, requiring urgent action. Tecnogera delivered a 170TR Chiller in Turnkey mode in just 3 days (approved on Wednesday, installed and commissioned by Friday). The solution included freight, loading/unloading, installation, commissioning, de-installation, and complete accessories (hoses, cables, connections, panels). The reliability was such that the contract was extended to 6 months (initially 90 days). The second store in Niterói faced similar conditions, achieving the same success, with the equipment remaining in operation for 1 year…
Temporary HVAC solutions mitigate losses in the retail sector
Restaurant at Anália Franco Shopping Mall (Tatuapé/SP), a North American casual dining chain in expansion, needed to replace an inefficient 10+ year-old Chiller. Complex logistical challenge: the old equipment was installed in a building under construction (crane without interference), now with iron beams creating obstacles for installing new equipment. The only accesses: elevator and parking ramp. Tecnogera selected equipment with suitable dimensions for movement. Solution provided: 2 Chillers of 20TR each, complete infrastructure with accessories in a turnkey model. Service met the strict requirements of the mall’s management, operation during nighttime. Equipment remained for 30 days (initially planned for 15 days). Differentials: compliance with management requirements, equipment size requirements, 24-hour commercial/technical service…
Power generator maintenance: types and how to perform
Preventive maintenance of generators is essential to preserve lifespan and ensure performance. Routines divided into specific periods: daily (fuel/oil levels, general inspection), weekly (drainage, battery, filters), monthly (connections, belts, cooling), semiannual (hoses, filter replacement) and annual (complete cleaning). It should only be performed by specialized professionals to avoid irreparable damage.
Discover the advantages of using generators for small and medium-sized businesses
Generators aren’t just for large companies. SMEs benefit from uninterrupted operations, preservation of refrigerated products, stable energy in underserved areas, and cost savings during peak hours (5 PM-9 PM). An IDEC survey reveals only 52.97% satisfactory quality in national power distribution. Rental makes the investment accessible with delivery, installation, and maintenance included.
Reservoir levels improve in the Northeast, but Cantareira is a concern
ONS forecasts improvement in Brazilian reservoirs for 2018, with expected levels of 30% versus 18.7% in the Southeast/Central-West and 5.5% in the Northeast in 2017. Cantareira System is a concern with 48.1% (without dead volume), below the 61.5% of 2013 before the crisis. Generators were crucial in water crises: Sabesp used them for pumping dead volume in 2014-2015 and in the Sobradinho Reservoir (BA) in 2017 when it reached 5.1%. Tecnogera has expertise in sanitation, providing a 14.5 MVA gas-powered mini power plant for Sabesp to pump 4,000 liters/second in the Rio Grande-Alto Tietê project.
How a Temporary Power Plant Works in Mining
Mining is an essential activity for the global economy, providing the necessary mineral resources for various sectors, from construction to electronics manufacturing. However, mineral extraction often takes place in remote locations, far from conventional power grids. This is where temporary power plants come in, offering customized solutions that ensure a continuous power supply for mining operations.
Chillers and Rooftops: When Renting is the Best Option
Summer is approaching, bringing high temperatures with it. For industries, shopping malls, hospitals, hypermarkets, and other commercial establishments, excessive heat can be a major issue. To keep production processes running smoothly and ensure customer comfort, these locations need powerful and efficient cooling systems.
How to Avoid Power Issues at Large Events
Power is one of the most critical aspects of organizing large events, yet it’s often one of the most overlooked. A power failure can cause anything from minor inconveniences to a complete event shutdown. This guide covers the essential steps to ensure a stable and secure power supply, including choosing the right supplier, properly sizing generators, correct installation, and contingency planning.
Renewable Energy on the Rise
Bloomberg, through its energy sector analysis arm, Bloomberg New Energy, released a study indicating a significant drop in wind and solar energy costs in the coming decades. According to the study, this trend is expected to accelerate the adoption of renewable sources. Researchers predict that solar energy costs will fall by more than 60% by 2040.
