All of our chambers are continually monitored via our CFR 21 part 11 compliant data acquisition system
Our low-temperature secure storage chambers are ideal for high value goods, perishables, food products and pharmaceuticals.
The chambers are validated annually with all the documentation being pre-authorised for use prior to the commencement of the validation. The validation and associated documentation are completed by trained Vindonwestech engineers. The completed documentation is checked by another validation engineer before a final check and approval by the Vindon QA department.
Our in-house service engineer services the chambers annually, in line with Vindon rigorous service procedures.
All of our chambers are continually monitored via our CFR 21 part 11 compliant data acquisition system. The validated data acquisition system will alert our on-call team of any deviations outside the specification limits. e.g. -20ºC (+/-5ºC) Any readings above -15ºC or below-25ºC will alert our on-call team to respond to site within two hours.
In the event of a chamber failure, Vindon have spare dedicated and validated chambers to allow for the controlled movement of your product to protect its integrity.
