What does your lab need to do?

Find your task; the devices that fit it, and why each one, are right beside it.

Stability testing

Samples sit for months at a fixed temperature and humidity, and every change must be on record. Fater Electronic stability chambers cover 4 to 45 °C and 40 to 85 % RH; every common ICH condition is inside this range.

Long term: 25 °C, 60 % RHIntermediate: 30 °C, 65 % RHAccelerated: 40 °C, 75 % RH

Our recommendation

Pharmaceutical stability chamber with 2 chambers and separate controlTwo conditions at once, such as long term and accelerated; each 300 L chamber has its own controlXPH3D

Pharmaceutical stability chamber with 4 chambers and separate controlFour conditions side by side in one unit, for a full stability programmeXPH3Q

021-88552340

Do Fater Electronic stability chambers cover the ICH conditions?

Yes. They cover 4 to 45 °C with a ± 0.3 °C tolerance, and 40 to 85 % RH with a ± 3 % RH tolerance. The conditions 25/60, 30/65, 30/75 and 40/75 are all within this range.

How many separate chambers do I need?

One for each condition you run at the same time. The two-chamber model suits long term plus accelerated; the four-chamber model suits a full programme with intermediate conditions. Each chamber has its own control.

How is the test data recorded?

Every change is recorded day and night in the unit's internal memory and copied out over USB. The unit connects to the lab manager's computer: monitoring, saving data on the computer over the network and remote control are possible. Time control with ten settable programmes is available to order.

What about installation and after-sales service?

Fater engineers install and commission the unit in your lab, in any city, free of charge. It comes with a three-year warranty and ten years of after-sales service and spare parts.
