“Our new VSD facility – which commenced operations at the beginning of the year – is an approved warranty centre for BMG’s Danfoss/Vacon and Synergy VSD products,” says David Dyce, Business Unit Manager: Electronics, BMG. This ElectroMechanical facility is manned by a team of globally-trained experts offering specialist services to customers throughout the Western Cape. Services include repairs, maintenance, option fitment, pre-commissioning, software loading/upgrades and testing applications, as well as small panel manufacturing. The team also provides on-site technical assistance for trouble shooting, commissioning, maintenance and repairs.”
The conveniently situated engineering facility also stocks the full range of BMG VSDs to clients from all industries, including the marine sector. In addition, BMG’s branch network in the Western Cape area also stocks a wide range of VSD’s in various voltages and power sizes to suit the immediate needs of the market.
BMG was appointed by Danfoss Drives in 2019 as the first authorised Danfoss DrivePro® service partner in Africa and this official certification has been renewed each year. This prestigious appointment gives customers the assurance that BMG meets stringent requirements to offer customised support and technical assistance for Danfoss VLT® and VACON® frequency converters.
Danfoss DrivePro® services, which cover the entire lifecycle of Danfoss and VACON® AC drives, are designed to improve productivity and performance, minimising downtime and giving peace of mind to every user.
