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 Nashville, TN

Calibrations play a critical role in every stability chamber, and our engineers use precise calibrations to ensure perfect performance. Our Engineers calibrate each chamber to NIST compliance (NIST National Institute of Standards and Technology), in order to meet or exceed manufacturer’s needs.

We provide several different programs to ensure that you recieve the service you need for your stability chamber in Nashville, TN. 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. Any instrument outside of tolerance will be noted, and we will immediately notify you so that your team can take the appropriate actions.

If a chamber's "as-found" readings are outside of the recommended tolerance level, the instrument can be calibrated using the manufacturers calibration procedures. Once calibration is finalized, the readings of the unit will be documented to detail the units calibration and operation within the manufacturer's tolerance.

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

• Temperature calibration involves verifying that temperature readings are accurate. This can be done by looking at the readings from the chamber against those from a reference 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 follows a similar procedure as temperature calibration. A reference hygrometer is located inside the stability chamber, and the readings are compared with the readings of the stability chamber's humidity control system.
• Pressure calibration involves calibrating the pressure readings in the stability chamber. To read pressure, we use a calibrated barometer, and adjustments are made until they match.

Calibration is required to ensure that the settings within the chamber stay precise 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 only be done 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 Nashville, TN

A true stability chamber validation and qualification in Nashville, TN will:

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

Full qualification services in Nashville, TN are usually described in terms of three different parts:

• Installation Qualification (IQ) provides documented verification that key aspects of the unit adhere to the installation design intention. This includes verifying that the instruments are in the right 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) is utilized for providing documented verification that the systems and subsystems perform as intended at all anticipated operating ranges (normally carried out with an unloaded chamber). The OQ process may also include tests to evaluate the performance of the equipment under different load conditions. 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 with an actual product inside. 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 are adequate. The PQ process could also consist of observation of the equipment for indicators of malfunction, to make sure that any issues are identified and taken care of swiftly.
