4WD CONVERSIONS GAME SURVEILLANCE VEHICLES

RMA Automotive South Africa have built three Ford Transit 4WD Conversions at their manufacturing facility in Pretoria, South Africa.

This is the first Transit 4WD Conversion project completed at the Home of Special Vehicles in Africa. A team of RMA Special Vehicles technicians from Thailand was deployed to South Africa and completed this project in only two weeks. 

The Transit 470E vans were fitted out according to the customers’ specifications by RMAA South Africa’s technicians.

The interior fit out included creating a self contained workstation and a rear storage area. The workstation located behind the driver’s cabin was fitted with air conditioning, a fridge, wooden flooring, a working table and customized storage cabinets, while the rear was fitted out with a generator and full electrical system for running off both the generator, or plug in power, holders for jerry cans, and work lights fitted inside and out, as well as custom interior cladding and finishes.

RMA AUTOMOTIVE SOUTH AFRICA GOES GREEN

RMA Automotive South Africa moved into their new Head Office in early 2022, and as with most businesses in South Africa, backup power options were put high on the list of priorities.

With load shedding being a fact of life, and planned electricity outages alone reaching 6 hours a day,  a robust long-term solution to ensuring productivity was required.

The decision was made to install a Hybrid Solar System. The 15.2kW system comprises 28 solar panels a 12kV three-phase inverter and 20kWh worth of lithium-ion batteries, supplied and installed by NexSolar, a reputable South African solar solutions provider. 

This Hybrid Solar System not only mitigates the effect of load shedding but results in producing significant power savings, so much so that in the month of August, RMAA SA was able to produce 66.5% of the total electricity the business consumed.

RMAA SA’s decision to go green was logical in terms of reducing energy costs and ensuring an uninterrupted electricity supply, therefore preventing downtime due to load shedding. On top of this RMAA SA is doing its part in contributing to a cleaner environment.
