PITTCON 2001: Stability and Photostability Chambers

Caron Stability and Photostability Chambers are designed specifically to meet ICH guidelines for general stability testing of new drug substances and products Q1A(R), long term and accelerated refrigerated testing, and photostability testing. With a temperature range of 5 to 60°C and humidity control from 20 to 98% RH, CARON's 10 cu.ft. bench-top and 30 cu.ft. reach-in chambers create a variety of repeatable environmental conditions.

With the photostability light package option, the same chamber satisfies the guidelines for photostability testing of new drug substances and products (QIB). The use of D65/ID65 light source generates 1.2 million lux hours of consistent illumination throughout the chamber.

Extend the standard limits of the chamber by choosing from the many options and accessories available. A condensate recirculating system is available and acts as a water delivery and recovery system to the chamber as an alternate to using an in-house water supply. Lower humidity levels are attainable with the use of the dryer package option which was designed to extend the operational limits of the chamber to its minimum humidity control point of 2% RH.
