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 industries, 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 Los Angeles, CA

We understand your field might have heavy oversight, which is why we use extremely precise calibration standards. We use these standards to ensure NIST compliance (NIST National Institute of Standards and Technology), in order to meet or exceed your needs.

We can also offer customized programs, such as single point or loop calibrations and verifications. 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 exceeds the tolerance, we will promptly notify you, so that you may take the necessary steps to document the event.

Additionally, if the “as-found” readings are not within the manufacturer’s tolerance, the instrument is then calibrated using the manufacturer’s calibration procedure. Once calibration is finalized, the readings of the unit will be documented to detail the units calibration and operation within the manufacturer's tolerance.

In order to perform calibration, you must verify a stability chamber's 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 located inside the chamber. If there is a discrepancy, the stability chamber temperature control system can be adjusted until the temperatures match.
• Humidity calibration is similar to temperature calibration. A reference hygrometer is placed inside the stability chamber, and the readings are compared with the readings of the stability chamber's humidity control system.
• Pressure calibration involves verifying the pressure settings in the stability chamber. In this case, we use a calibrated barometer, and adjustments are made until all of the readings show the same thing.

Calibration is required to guarantee that the settings within the chamber remain 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 result in the need to repeat a stability study.

You need a qualified and experienced technician to make sure the calibration is done right. How often you need calibration is based on the stability chamber usage and the level of precision required.

Stability Chamber Validation and Qualification in Los Angeles, CA

An expert stability chamber validation and qualification in Los Angeles, CA 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) is intended to provide records that the design, procurement, and installation follow to the design intention. This includes verifying that the instruments are in the correct location, that electrical components are properly connected, 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 load conditions. The OQ process also includes verifying that the chamber's alarms and safety systems are functioning correctly.
• Performance Qualification (PQ) ensures and documents that the unit performs as intended, either in a simulation or with an actual product inside. Where OQ validates hardware and software, PQ validates a chamber's performance. The PQ process involves performing a series of tests and evaluations over a defined period of time, typically several weeks or months, to confirm that the equipment operates as intended and meets the specified requirements for its intended use.

  The PQ process also includes an evaluation of the operating and maintenance processes to make sure they are adequate. The PQ process might also consist of monitoring the equipment for alarms of malfunction, to ensure that any problems are identified and taken care of promptly.
