Stability studies are a critical aspect of ensuring the quality and effectiveness of various products, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and chemicals. These studies require a controlled environment to test the product's stability over time, and stability chambers are used to simulate this environment. The reliability of stability studies depend on the stability chamber's ability to maintain consistent temperature, humidity, and pressure conditions.

Stability Chamber Calibration in Denver, CO

Calibrations play a critical role in every stability chamber, and our engineers use precise calibrations to ensure they function reliably for a long period of time. Our Engineers calibrate each chamber to NIST compliance (NIST National Institute of Standards and Technology), in order to meet or exceed your specifications.

We provide several different programs to ensure that you recieve the service you need for your stability chamber in Denver, CO. Our service is provided as a 3-point "as-found" calibration and verification. The “as-found” readings are documented and verified to be within the manufacturer’s tolerance, if found within the tolerances the device is then returned to service. If any instrument does not meet requirements, we will promptly notify you, so that you may take the necessary steps to document the event.

If a chamber's "as-found" readings are outside of the recommended tolerance level, the instrument can be calibrated using the manufacturers calibration procedures. After completing the calibration, the instrument’s “as-left” readings are documented using the same three points from the calibration to ensure the instrument is reading within the manufacturer’s tolerance.

The calibration of a stability chamber involves verifying its performance against a given tolerance and making adjustments in order to achieve the intended specifications. The most common parameters that need to be calibrated include temperature, humidity, and pressure:

  • Temperature calibration involves verifying the accuracy of the temperature readings in the stability chamber. This can be done by looking at the readings from the chamber against those from a calibrated thermometer, which is placed inside the chamber. If there is a difference between the two readings, the stability chamber temperature control system can be adjusted until the readings are the same.
  • Humidity calibration is similar to temperature calibration. A reference hygrometer is placed inside the stability chamber, and humidity readings are compared just as temperature readings are.
  • Pressure calibration involves calibrating the pressure readings in the stability chamber. To read pressure, we use a reference barometer, and adjustments are made until all of the readings match.

Calibration is required to guarantee that the conditions within the chamber stay accurate for an extended period. This helps to ensure that the results of stability testing are reliable, and it also helps to avoid costly errors that could force you to have to carry out the study again.

Calibration should be performed by a certified and experienced technician. How often you need calibration depends on the stability chamber usage and the level of precision required.

Stability Chamber Validation and Qualification in Denver, CO

A true stability chamber validation and qualification in Denver, CO will:

  • Consist of calibration records of all instrumentation used during the qualification
  • Deliver documented evidence detailing the instruments adherence to correct calibrated state and standards

Qualification and validation are three different parts:

  • Installation Qualification (IQ) is intended to provide documented verification that all key aspects of the design, procurement, and installation adhere to the design intention. The IQ process includes an analysis of the installation records, such as wiring diagrams, to confirm that the equipment has been installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Operational Qualification (OQ) is meant to provide documented verification that the systems and subsystems perform as intended at all anticipated operating ranges (normally performed with an unloaded chamber). The OQ process may also include tests to evaluate the performance of the equipment under different settings. The OQ process also includes verifying that the chamber's alarms and safety systems are functioning correctly.
  • Performance Qualification (PQ) is utilized for providing documented verification that the process does what it is intended to do (normally performed with either a simulated or actual product load in the chamber). Where OQ validates hardware and software, PQ validates how a chamber works. The PQ process takes several weeks or months, to confirm that the equipment operates as it should and meets the specified requirements for its intended use.

    The PQ process also includes a review of the operating and maintenance processes to make sure they will support the continued operation of the equipment. The PQ process may also include tracking the equipment for alarms of malfunction, to ensure that any problems are detected and addressed swiftly.
