How do you maintain humidity in a chamber?
A refrigeration system is ideal for doing this. The evaporator coil in the chamber attracts moisture in the air, causing it to condense into water, which can then be drained away. A refrigeration system will help control temperature and humidity. Also, note that humidity is always relative to temperature; therefore, to be able to control humidity accurately and precisely, you need to control the temperature as well.
What is a temperature and humidity cabinet?

The purpose of the TRH temperature and humidity cabinet is to simulate and test the effects of various environmental conditions on products, materials, or samples in a controlled and repeatable manner.

These chambers are typically used in research and development, quality control, and manufacturing processes across a variety of industries such as electronics, automotive, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals.

Can I store a series of TRH cabinets adjacent to one another?
Yes, absolutely. You'll need to have enough space between cabinets to ensure that the exhaust from one does not blow into the next cabinet causing a reduction in performance. If space is an issue, please contact us about our innovative deflectors that allow chambers to be installed in close proximity to one another
How do I determine the shelf life of drug products?

For a drug product, stability testing determines the shelf-life of the product by establishing the duration for which the product is safe to use and retains therapeutic value according to the level of the active ingredient(s).

The shelf life of a pharmaceutical product can be affected by a range of factors, including temperature, humidity, light exposure, and the chemical and physical properties of the product itself. Therefore, it is essential to conduct shelf life testing under controlled conditions that replicate the anticipated storage environment of the product.

What is a temperature and humidity cabinet used for?

These cabinets are used to simulate and maintain specific environmental conditions, which can be crucial for many laboratory experiments, sample storage, and product testing. For example, biological samples, chemicals, and electronic components may need to be stored under specific temperature and humidity conditions to maintain their integrity, avoid degradation, and ensure accurate results.

The Thermoline TRH temperature and humidity cabinets have a colour touchscreen controller that allows users to set and monitor the temperature and humidity levels inside the chamber. The cabinet's design allows for precise control of these environmental parameters, which can be adjusted and maintained over a range of temperatures and humidity levels.

What is Dew Point?

The dew point is the temperature at which dew (condensation) forms and is a measure of atmospheric moisture. It is the temperature to which air must be cooled at constant pressure and water content to reach saturation. Dew points are expressed as a temperature. Higher dew points correlate to higher moisture content, also known as absolute humidity.

The dew point represents the lowest temperature to which air with specific temperature and relative humidity (RH) can be cooled. At the dew point, air has a relative humidity of 100%, and additional cooling produces condensation rather than lowering the air temperature.

Do I need a water tank to supply water to the cabinet?
You only need a 25L/55L water tank if your cabinet cannot be connected to mains water supply. If mains water supply is not possible, 25L gravity and 55L pump water feed tanks are available to supply water to the cabinet. As a rule of thumb, a cabinet running at 90%RH will deplete a 55L water tank in approximately three days.
