Canden Reach-in stability chamber features

Canden Reach-in stability chamber models -Q20,Q40,Q60 is designed to conduct stability testing and storage of pharmaceutical products in accordance with the guidelines set by the FDA/ICH. These chambers play a crucial role in assessing the long-term stability, quality, and shelf life of pharmaceutical formulations. Here are key features and considerations associated with Canden Reach-in stability chambers:

Temperature and Humidity Control:

Canden Stability chambers provide precise control over temperature and humidity, creating conditions that mimic the anticipated storage environment for pharmaceutical products. Temperature and humidity settings typically adhere to specific ICH-defined zones, including accelerated, intermediate, and long-term storage conditions. Our temperature control at sensor is 1°C and humidity is 3% RH.

Controller:

Canden stability chambers comes with optional Future design touchscreen controller or Watlow F4T. The Controller with INTUITION™ offers a wide range of field removable I/O modules for maximum design flexibility. Configurations can be custom tailored to meet the scaling needs of a tremendous range of equipment and applications while providing exactly the hardware types required for compatibility. The controller also features a 4.3 inch, color, graphical touch panel. Combining power, flexibility and functionality, this new controller offers unmatched versatility, and its best-in-class ease-of-use could very well make user manuals a thing of the past.

The F4T features temperature PID, over/under-temperature limit, power switching, math, logic, timers and counters combined into one integrated system. The unit is also provided with algorithms for temperature,humidity. Many communications options are available including Ethernet Modbus® TCP and SCPI and EIA232/485 Modbus® RTU. The modular design adapts to evolving requirements.

  • 4.3-inch color touch panel

  • High-resolution graphical user-interface

  • 1 to 4 control loops-TRU-TUNE+ adaptive control algorithm

  • 40 profiles for ramp and soak

  • Ethernet Modbus TCP connectivity

  • Multiple high-speed USB host ports

  • Over/under-temperature limits

  • Universal, thermistor & ac current measurement inputs

  • Inputs and outputs expandable from 1 to 36

  • The controller comes with a standard three-year factory warranty

  1. Validation and Qualification:

  2. Canden Stability chambers undergo validation and qualification processes to ensure they meet the specified performance criteria.These processes involve testing the chamber’s ability to maintain stable and uniform conditions, and the results are documented to demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards. Installation, Qualification and validation process and documentation are additional costs.

  3.  
  4. Uniformity and Airflow:

  5. Canden Stability chambers are designed to provide uniform temperature and humidity distribution to all stored products. Air flow is moved in a front to back fashion–ensuring a thorough mixture of conditioned air throughout the entire volume of the chamber interior.Adequate airflow helps maintain consistent conditions throughout the chamber, ensuring that samples experience the same environmental conditions.

  6.  

  7. Shelf Design and Configuration:

  8. The internal design and configuration of stability chambers allow for the storage of multiple samples in a way that minimizes temperature variations and maximizes exposure to controlled conditions. Shelves may be adjustable to accommodate different sizes and types of pharmaceutical containers.

Q20– Reach-in Stability chamber/Single door model

Canden Reach-in stability chamber / stability testing chamber is capable of maintaining stable temperature  and humidity set points with exceptional precision. Our Reach-in stability chamber meets ICH guidelines and is used in various pharmaceutical industry for various purpose including-stability storage, stability testing and other uses. Canden Reach-in stability chamber/ stability testing chamber has a wide operating temperature range of 10°c to 50°c and relative humidity range of 40% to 90% (as limited by dew pointes mentioned in specification sheet) maintaining a stable temperature and relative humidity across the entire range. This Canden environmental stability chamber provides outstanding stability testing performance for manufacturers of pharmaceutical industry, biologics, food, and personal care products. Canden stability chambers’ performance meets ICH Q1A general case guidelines for pharmaceutical industry stability testing, accelerated shelf life study and in a wide variety of industries/applications.Canden StableClimate stability chambers and cabinets with Temperature and/or Humidity are used for ICH Q1A testing, shelf life, package testing, accelerated aging.

Uses of stability chamber?

In the pharmaceutical industry, stability testing helps provide evidence as to how the quality of a drug will vary with time under a variety of environmental conditions including temperature, humidity, and light exposure.

To test the quality of the product under specific temperatures and humidities, a batch of the product of interest is placed in a stability chamber that has controlled temperature and humidity for a specified amount of time. Samples are checked periodically for quality analysis. Because stability testing takes place over time spans ranging from one week, to six months, to one year or more, the stability chambers used need to be reliable and consistent.

Chamber is reliable and consistent because it is designed with horizontal airflow for uniform sample exposure which ensures accurate temperature and humidity control. Chamber features standard PT100 precision RTD temperature sensor, Rotronic humidity probe and Fuji Controller.

Canden stability testing chamber/temperature and humidity chamber is equipped with several standard safety features including efficient thermoelectric coolers/heaters which operate in low voltage, ultrasonic humidification, High and low temp/humidity alarms, high temperature cut off switch, alarm notification at controller etc. Q series stability chambers exceed the performance requirements of FDA and ICH. The ultrasonic humidification methods provides tight humidity control and this will prove essential during mapping studies. Also all our Q20 stability chambers have 2 thermoelectric coolers/heaters which means if one of the coolers/heaters fail the other one will ensure there is no downtime in your research. This redundant style dual cooling/heating system ensures longevity of the chamber as well.

 

Chamber uses thermoelectric assembly for heating and cooling. This type of cooling/heating system completely eliminates need for conventional refrigeration system and failures due to mechanical components such as compressors thereby drastically increasing the life expectancy of each chamber. Maintenance cost is also lowered by the thermoelectric/Peltier driven heating/cooling system. The chamber is quiet while in operation. Chamber temperature set points are tightly controlled using PID controller. Relative humidity set points are achieved via ultrasonic humidification, small desiccant dehumidifier. 

Why choose Canden products? Here are your reasons

1. All Stainless steel construction of chamber, precise temperature and humidity control along with UL listed parts.

2. In built water supply carboy and dessicant dryer with compressed air( in case building water supply and compressed air is not available). Your chamber comes with every utility needed for chamber operation– all you have to do is plug the chamber into standard power outlet and use.

3. Exceptional warranty and reliability of chamber.Life time warranty on controller.
