HC40- Temperature and humidity controlled chamber

HCH40- Environmental test chamber/stability test chamber

The HCH40 two door environmental test chambers/humidified incubator can maintain temperature from 0°C to 50°C with precision and relative humidity of 10% to 90% RH. This chamber is aptly used as an environmental testing , constant climate testing, shelf life testing, stability storage, stability testing & growth chamber due to its wide temperature and humidity range. Chamber exceeds ICH performance standards due to exceptional uniformity, thanks to the back wall plenum which ensures uniform distribution of conditioned air.

The environmental stability chamber/ temperature and humidity controlled test chamber is capable of maintaining a wide humidification rage of 10% to 90% using ultrasonic humidification method which eliminates hot spots within the chamber volume and ensures uniform humidity value. The humidity test chamber also comes with a small desiccant based dehumidifier which ensures the lower relative humidity set points are achieved without any need for dedicated compressed air line . 

The HCH40 environmental stability chamber model is one of the most competitively priced model without compromising construction, performance and safety features. This humidity and temperature controlled chamber is built to last for a long time with proper maintenance.

Also- The HCH4O model is a popular choice with pharmaceutical companies  The stability chambers meet International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for drug substance and product storage testing. 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. This stability testing must be completed before a drug enters the market.This Canden temp and humidity  environmental stability test chamber is ideal for drug stability studies, shelf-life testing for packaged products, and insect and other large-scale biological research.

• Chambers feature 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F) temperature range that can be set in 0.1°C increments and optional range up to 70°c.
• Directed Airflow System distributes airflow uniformly throughout the chamber
• Various options available to address specific needs for shelving, door, water system etc available.

 Typical chamber application includes

• Ninhydrin testing

• pharmaceutical stability testing 

• Pharmaceutical stability storage

• Cold storage 

• Drywall (gypsum) stability testing

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 Fuji PX4 microprocessor based PID controller. Chamber comes with additive humidification via ultrasonic humidifier, humidity sensor and PID humidity controller which displays process and set value. All sensors are NIST traceable- optional certificate to be provided upon request at estimate.
