Please note: Darwin Chambers does not provide stability testing services. We specialize in manufacturing and supplying high-quality stability chambers designed to meet your testing needs.

Stability chambers are essential pieces of laboratory equipment used to store and study the stability of products under simulated environmental conditions. These chambers are used in a variety of fields, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food, to ensure the safety and efficacy of products over a long period. To ensure that the results obtained from stability testing are reliable, stability chambers must be calibrated, validated, and qualified.

Stability Chamber Calibration in Greensboro, NC

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 needs.

We can also fit our services to meet your needs, whether this be calibrations, qualifications, or verificatiopns. 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 make note of it and fix the issue.

Additionally, if the “as-found” readings are not within the manufacturer’s tolerance, the instrument is then calibrated using the manufacturer’s calibration procedure. 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 set of standards and making adjustments as necessary to ensure that it meets the desired 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 is most often completed by contrasting the readings of the stability chamber with a reference thermometer, which is located inside the chamber. If there is a difference between the two readings, we'll make adjustments until the readings match.
• Humidity calibration follows a similar process as temperature calibration. A calibration hygrometer is placed inside the stability chamber, and humidity readings are compared just as temperature readings are.
• Pressure calibration involves verifying the pressure settings in the stability chamber. In this case, we use a reference barometer, and adjustments are made until they match.

Calibration is required to ensure that the settings within the chamber stay accurate for an extended period. This helps to ensure that you can rely on the results of your stability testing, and it also helps to avoid costly errors that could render your results invalid.

Calibration should be performed by a qualified and experienced technician. It is recommended to calibrate a stability chamber at least once a year, or more frequently if it is used frequently or if the results of previous calibrations indicate that it may be necessary.

Stability Chamber Validation and Qualification in Greensboro, NC

An expert stability chamber validation and qualification in Greensboro, NC should:

• Include a list of instruments used for qualifications
• Deliver documented evidence detailing the instruments adherence to correct calibrated state and standards

Qualification and validation include a three-part process:

• Installation Qualification (IQ) provides documented verification that key aspects of the unit adhere to the installation design intention. This includes verifying that the equipment has been installed in the correct spot, that it is properly connected to electrical and other services, and that it meets the specified requirements for temperature and humidity control.
• Operational Qualification (OQ) provides documentation that the unit and subsystems perform to the intended, anticipated, and need operating ranges. The OQ process may also consist of tests to assess the performance of the equipment under different settings. The OQ process also validates that safety measures and alarms are operating as they should.
• Performance Qualification (PQ) ensures and documents that the unit can reach the temperature, humidity, and pressure settings as intended, either in a simulation or product load. Where OQ validates the equipment, PQ validates how a chamber works. The PQ process takes several weeks or months, to confirm that the chamber can hold up as long as you need it to.

  The PQ process also includes an evaluation of the operating and maintenance procedures to make sure they will achieve the continued operation of the instruments. The PQ process could also consist of observation of the equipment for indicators of malfunction, to make sure that any problems are caught and taken care of swiftly.
