Constant climate chambers are used to simulate environmental conditions (temperature and relative humidity). Testing and simulation in climate chambers provide information on how test samples will behave under defined climatic conditions. These tests help ensure the quality and stability of products and give an insight into their lifespan and durability. For this category of climate chambers, it is important that they provide homogeneous climatic conditions over time and space, and that these conditions are continuously documented during testing.
Binder climate chambers comply with the following guidelines:
ICH Q1A (R2), ICH Q1B, ICH Q5C, VICH for testing the stability of active substances and finished pharmaceutical products
Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in the field of biological sciences
ASTM F1980 (Standards for accelerated aging of sterile medical devices)
