The University of Hamburg approached CTS directly with the request to quote and subsequently manufacture and install 3 automatic weather stations at:

• Khorixas
• Kaoko Otavi
• Okangwati

Once again, satellite communication has been chosen, this time not because of GSM not being available, but to reduce future cost of the stations as satellite communication for these stations has got no costs associated.

In addition to the basic data measured:

• Wind speed
• Wind direction
• Humidity
• Air Temperature
• Irradiance
• Barometric pressure
• Ground Temperature
• Rain
• Leaf wetness

The stations are equipped with a WLAN interface. This allows the connection of 49″ SmartTV to be connected to each station to display the current weather inside close by offices.

The installed photovoltaic system at Elavi Clinic caters for the power supply to the clinic as well as the nurse houses. A 6.2kW PV module array generates enough power for the energy requirements. Should this not be sufficient the batteries can be charged by a backup generator.

The system consists of the following:

• 6.24 kW PV array
• 2x Victron BueSolar 150V/70A MPPT regulator
• 600Ah Battery capacity
• Inverter/Charger, Victron Multi, 48V/8000VA
• System Monitoring (BMV700, Color Control GX)

A 1.5t boiler was installed at the Hartlief factory to cater for the growing needs of steam. The project included:

• Installation of new steam boiler next to the existing boiler
• Modifications to HFO line to cater for new boiler
• Commissioning

Over the past year's minor refurbishment, maintenance and upgrading projects where completed as well such as:

• Installation of condensate pumps to reduce back pressure of equipment inside the factory
• Raising current condensate storage tanks to increase head pressure for feed water pumps
• Three monthly service of both steam boiler and yearly inspection with Ministry of Labor inspectors
  

A 7,3 kWp off-grid PV system was installed at the farm Heinrichsfelde in the Aus area with a Lithium-ion battery. The system is able to power an entire farmhouse. Remote monitorng and supervision is included.

System Specifications are:

• 24 x 305W Renesola PV modules
• 2x Victron MPPT 150/85
• 1x Victron Quattro 48/10000
• 1x BlueNova Lithium-ion battery 48V-24kWh
• Roof mounted with structure for IBR roof sheeting
• AC surge and lightning protection

CTS ensures that your system is designed for your requirements.  With our years of experience, we not only install, but also service and maintain the equipment today, and in the years to come.

With our extensive knowledge in sterilization and infection control, CTS installed suitable autoclaves with BSL3 seals.  In addition to the autoclaves, an effluent treatment system was also installed.  This system collects the effluent from the autoclaves, sinks and wash basins, and collects it in one tank.  Once a certain level has been reached, a second tank will collect the effluent, while sterilization begins in the first tank.  In this way, collection of the effluent is not delayed whilst sterilization is being performed in one of the tanks.  Through this system, the highest level of decontamination is achieved, ensuring a safe environment.

CVL is classified as a BSL 3 laboratory.  BSL 3 means a biosafety level of 3.  This is a level of bio-containment precautions, required to isolate dangerous agents, which may cause serious diseases.  This includes various bacteria, viruses and parasites.  CVL required autoclaves with a BSL3 seal approval, as well as an effluent treatment system, to decontaminate a wide range of aqueous liquids.

CTS was awarded the tender to supply, deliver to site, installation, testing and commission of two autoclaves and an effluent treatment system for CVL.

CTS was instructed to supply, deliver, install, test and commission laundry equipment for the Mine Complex Change House, Plant Complex Change House and the FPR Change House at the Husab Mine in 2015.

The Husab mine has to process nearly 2 000 overalls and towels on a daily basis. Emphasis was made on equipment that is energy efficient, safe to operate and cost effective to maintain.

Miele equipment fulfills every requirement when it comes to the economical processing of large amounts of laundry. Miele’s tried and tested programs ensure the correct washing process for every type of material. The tumble driers complement the washer extractors and are highly economical, thanks to short running times. Thus you have a perfect solution to process large amounts of laundry, fast, hygienically and economically.

CTS installed washer extractors fitted with water recovery units and heat pump tumble driers. Laundry-care requirements vary significantly according to the customer’s needs. Whichever your requirement, CTS can offer you the ideal solution.
