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 provide this environment. The accuracy of stability studies depend on the stability chamber's ability to maintain consistent temperature, humidity, and pressure conditions.

Stability Chamber Calibration in Spokane, WA

We use precise calibration standards to ensure quality performance within every chamber. The use of these standards will ensure that your instruments follow to NIST compliance (NIST National Institute of Standards and Technology), in order to meet or exceed your needs.

We can also offer programs that are tailored to fit your needs, such as single point or loop calibrations and verifications. Our procedure provides a 3-point “as-found” calibration verification. Our calibration readings determine whether a unit is within tolerance, and allows units that are within tolerance to continue operations. 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.

If an instrument'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 consists of 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 located inside the chamber. If there is a discrepancy, we'll make adjustments until the readings are the same.
• Humidity calibration is similar to temperature calibration. A calibration hygrometer is placed inside the stability chamber, and humidity readings are compared just as temperature readings are.
• Pressure calibration involves calibrating the pressure settings in the stability chamber. To read pressure, 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 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 force you to have to carry out the study again.

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

Stability Chamber Validation and Qualification in Spokane, WA

A reliable stability chamber validation and qualification in Spokane, WA should:

• Provide a list of instruments used for qualifications
• Provide documented evidence the chamber’s instruments are in a current calibrated state

Full qualification services in Spokane, WA are usually described in terms of three different parts:

• Installation Qualification (IQ) includes a series of tests and evaluations to confirm that the equipment has been installed according to the manufacturer's specifications and that it adheres to requirements for the intended use. This includes verifying that the equipment has been installed in the correct location, 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 meant to provide 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 consist of tests to validate 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) is utilized for providing documented verification that the temperature, humidity, and pressure settings work in the correct and anticipated manner (normally performed with either a simulated or actual product load in the chamber). Where OQ validates the equipment, PQ validates a chamber's performance. 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 a review of the operating and maintenance procedures to ensure that they are adequate. The PQ process may also consist of observation of the equipment for indicators of malfunction, to ensure that any problems are caught and taken care of promptly.
