support for production plants. OEM parts are stocked in
our regional warehouses.
KVC Africa has a fully equipped after sales service centre that enables us to do most engineering in house. The service centre offers the necessary equipment to increase our flexibility of excellent service. We boast a 15 ton overhead crane that enables us to handle and repair large size valves with ease. We fully understand the need for excellent service and support for production plants. OEM parts are stocked in our regional warehouses.
Valves are repaired to manufacturing standards and international codes of requirements for certified leakage and pressure tests. Control valves are calibrated, certified and tested. All final testing is done to the appropriate international industry and plant standards. Thinking globally but acting locally is part of KVC Africa’s success.
We repair all valves to manufacturing standards and international code of requirements such as certified seat leakage and pressure tests. Control valves calibration will be certified and tested. Our works procedures forms party of our quality management system, ISO 45001:2018
We offer the following services
Site Surveys
Selecting the correct actuator solution starts with understanding the application. KVC Africa offers comprehensive on-site surveys to assess your valve automation requirements and operating conditions. Our experienced technicians visit your facility to evaluate existing equipment, identify operational challenges, verify valve conditions, and collect critical data required for actuator selection and system design.
Our site surveys help clients:
- Determine the feasibility of valve automation projects
- Identify suitable actuator types and configurations
- Verify power supply and control requirements
- Assess environmental and installation conditions
- Reduce project risks and costly specification errors
By gathering accurate field information, we ensure that the recommended actuator solution delivers reliable and efficient performance throughout its operational life.
Actuator Sizing
Correct actuator sizing is essential for reliable valve operation and long-term equipment performance. At KVC Africa, we provide professional actuator sizing services based on valve specifications, operating conditions, process requirements, and industry best practices.
Our technical team calculates the required torque and thrust values while considering factors such as:
- Valve type and size
- Operating pressure and differential pressure
- Service conditions and media characteristics
- Safety factors and application requirements
- Duty cycle and operational frequency
Whether you require quarter-turn or multi-turn actuators, we ensure that each actuator is correctly matched to the valve, preventing under-sizing, over-sizing, premature wear, and unnecessary costs. Our goal is to provide a reliable, efficient, and cost-effective automation solution for every application.
Fitment & Commissioning
KVC Africa provides professional actuator installation, fitment, and commissioning services to ensure that your equipment is correctly installed and fully operational from day one. Our technicians work closely with plant personnel, contractors, and project teams to ensure a smooth installation process and optimal actuator performance.
Our commissioning services include:
- Mechanical actuator mounting and alignment
- Electrical wiring and verification
- Limit and torque switch setup
- Position feedback and control signal testing
- Functional testing and calibration
- Communication network configuration and verification
- Operator training and handover support
By following proven commissioning procedures, we ensure that all actuators operate safely, accurately, and in accordance with project specifications, minimizing downtime and maximizing reliability.
