Temtrol Technologies Pty Ltd is a Tasmanian owned and operated company formed in August 1998 with the merging of Temptrol Technologies and Tamar Electrical. The organisation employs approximately twenty two personnel and operates via three strategic business units:

  • Electrical Contracting

  • Instrumentation, Automation, and Safety Sales

Electrical Contracting

(Licence No. 942730)

The electrical contracting division operates primarily in the George Town / Bell Bay area. The division operates as an industrial electrical specialist but has two electrical / instrumentation Technicians on staff who enable the division to offer assistance in areas outside the electrical field.

Thermocouple and RTD Manufacturing

The manufacturing division designs and produces a range of high quality thermocouple and RTD temperature sensors from its quality controlled facility. The division holds several industrial contracts within the state and prides itself on its high level of quality product and service. The division offers temperature sensors in many different styles and formats and specialises in designing the best available sensor for the application.

Instrumentation, Automation and Safety Sales

The instrumentation, automation and safety sales division operates a statewide service representing many quality organisations and offers the provision of solid technical knowledge to ensure the right product is supplied to suit the required application.

OH & S Policy

Temtrol Technologies maintains a high commitment to OH&S to ensure the safety of its valued staff and clients. This commitment is enhanced by Temtrol becoming certified “SAFETY MAP 4” in 2002.

Temtrol changed to AS4801 and became accredited in July 2011.

What is covered with our shipping insurance?

Our normal terms and conditions (like most businesses) is that you take possession the moment an order ships. If the order is lost or damaged in transit then, in theory, it’s your problem. In reality we will have a conversation and try to work out a good way to resolve the issue where we are both happy (or not too upset).

Shipping insurance is there to remove the drama. If an order is lost or damaged in transit, we will simply send out a replacement, and we will then deal with the courier directly to resolve the original problem.

Our shipping insurance also means that if an order is delayed beyond what is normal and reasonable then we will send you another shipment (stock levels permitting). Then you should receive one of them sooner, and when the second one arrives you simply Return To Sender.

How much is shipping insurance?

Shipping insurance is 5% of the cost of the goods.

Is it worth it? Practically we have had far less than 5% of shipments have problems. It is, however, what Australia Post and other couriers charge. Ultimately insurance is about peace of mind and less hassle when something does go wrong.

Shipping insurance as an option

Shipping insurance is offered as an option on all our web sites. You can select it at the checkout.

For large orders our staff may also ask if you would like shipping insurance.

If you would like shipping insurance on an order you are placing with us, just ask.

Mandatory shipping insurance

Unfortunately we have had a couple of large orders not make it and then the customer refused to pay. A friend suggested that the easy way to avoid the dispute is to insure any shipments where we have a significant risk.

If you would like an immediate line of credit (30 days to pay) and have the goods ship immediately (no credit check delays) and are purchasing over $500 then we will add shipping insurance to your order.

The shipping insurance can be waived if the order is between $500 and $2,000 and you provide us with a formal confirmation that you accept responsibility of the goods once they ship.

Alternatively you can prepay by direct deposit or credit card.

What is not covered?

If there is a clear proof of delivery to the shipping address provided then we class that as delivered. Unfortunately there are cases where it is lost somewhere between the loading dock or receptionist and ending up in your hands. But we also know that a photo of the bag against a generic grey background is not proof of delivery, it is just proof of existence! It needs to be a reasonable proof of delivery.

It also doesn’t cover the expectation of overnight delivery. For example, if we were to ship to Melbourne (we are in Sydney) then we would expect it to be delivered within about 3 days. Most of the time it is overnight, but there are enough floods and other issues that regularly cause minor delays. Sending a second order the next day tends to not fix the problem. If it is super urgent, talk to us about how we can minimise the risk.

For damage claims we ask that you contact us immediately and we will probably ask for photos or some proof. The shipping insurance doesn’t cover claims weeks later. We do have warranty covering our items, but it excludes physical damage (e.g. being dropped). If the goods are damaged in transit then please let us know ASAP so we can cover it under the shipping insurance.
