For precise and validated tests, the device fulfils the guidelines and standards required in many industries. In particular, pharmaceutical stability tests are subject to the ICH Q1A guideline, compliance with which is ensured with this cabinet. The model also complies with current safety and quality standards and is CE labelled. The solid construction and self-test mode ensure smooth, fail-safe operation.

Typical areas of application

In laboratories in the pharmaceutical industry, climate chambers like this one are often used for stability tests on active ingredients and end products. In addition to pharmaceutical samples, cosmetics or chemical products can also be stored in constant climate conditions over longer periods of time in order to test their shelf life and effectiveness. Further examples:

1. Long-term testing of pharmaceutical products in accordance with the ICH Q1A guideline
2. Stability tests for cosmetic products based on emulsions or sensitive active ingredients
3. Quality controls in chemistry laboratories for polymer products or adhesives
4. Material tests in research facilities, for example for coatings or plastics

Thanks to the wide temperature and humidity range, these versatile climate chambers are also suitable for comparative tests of different formulations, durability studies and process optimisation in industrial production.

FAQs

How do I ensure a continuous water supply?

The device has an independent water tank that is supplied via a canister. An alarm and monitoring system signals when the water supply needs to be topped up. This ensures a constant moisture content without the need for complex low-pressure or fixed water connections.

What advantages does Peltier technology offer with this climate chamber?

Peltier elements are very energy-efficient and cause little operating noise. In addition, their patented heat dissipation guarantees a fast response time for both cooling and heating, enabling a constant temperature to be maintained throughout the interior.

How does the data logger work?

An internal data logger is integrated into the device, which records temperature and humidity data. These can be read out in an open format via the USB interface so that raw data can be imported directly into common evaluation programmes and processed further.

What maximum load can the device handle?

The standard equipment includes two stainless steel shelves, each with a load capacity of up to 30 kg. The total capacity of 120 kg ensures that even large-volume test samples or multiple sample batches can be analysed in parallel.

How quickly does the temperature and humidity return when the door is opened?

At 25 °C and 60 % RH, the recovery time after opening for 30 seconds is around six minutes. At 40 °C and 75 % RH, the appliance needs around 15 minutes to reach the set values again.

BINDER KBF-S ECO 720 constant climate chamber

The KBF-S ECO 720 is a high-performance climate chamber that offers maximum precision with stable temperature and humidity conditions. It was specially developed to optimise laboratory processes such as stability tests, shelf life tests or quality controls in industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and food. Thanks to its advanced Peltier technology, it combines energy efficiency with reliability and therefore fulfils the high demands of professional users.

Varied areas of application and benefits

This climate chamber is particularly efficient compared to conventional systems because it significantly reduces energy consumption and ensures a standard-compliant test environment in accordance with ICH Q1A. The following aspects make the model particularly attractive for demanding laboratory and research environments:

- Low energy requirements thanks to Peltier technology
- High operational reliability for uninterrupted long-term tests
- Minimal noise development for a pleasant working atmosphere
- High temperature and humidity accuracy even when fully loaded
- Simple operation via LCD display and internal data logger with freely readable values
- Independent water supply via canister for continuous operation
- Sturdy construction with stainless steel inner tank

The USB interface for data evaluation and the clever, hygienic design ensure convenient handling. In addition, the device can be customised to specific requirements using various accessories.

Technical features and specialities

The climate chamber offers outstanding performance data in terms of temperature and humidity. A temperature range of 0 °C to +70 °C can be realised (maximum 24 °C below the ambient temperature). In humidity mode, the application range extends from 10 % to 80 % relative humidity. The precise control is based on APT.line preheating chamber technology, which ensures uniform heat and humidity distribution in every corner of the interior.

Important key figures at a glance:
- Temperature range with humidity: 5...70 °C
- High measuring accuracy: ±0.1 to ±0.3 K deviation at 25 °C-60 % r.h. or 40 °C-75 % r.h.
- Recovery time after opening the door for 30 seconds (at 25 °C and 60 % RH): 7 minutes
- Storage capacity: 700 litre interior volume, 2 standard drawers (max. 15 drawers possible)
- Maximum load per drawer: 45 kg, total load: 150 kg

The outer doors are double-walled and close perfectly to prevent temperature fluctuations or moisture loss. A sound pressure level of just 48 dB(A) also ensures a quiet laboratory environment. All components are robustly manufactured and fulfil current safety and quality standards (e.g. CE marking), making the cabinet ideal for demanding applications.

Concrete application examples

1. Stability tests in the pharmaceutical industry: active ingredients and end products must be stored under constant conditions and regularly checked to ensure their shelf life and efficacy in accordance with ICH Q1A specifications.

3. Material testing in the research sector: mechanical properties of plastic and metal samples can be precisely observed under specific climatic conditions.
4. Durability analyses in the cosmetics industry: creams, lotions and other moisture-sensitive formulations benefit from precise moisture and temperature profiles

Frequently asked questions

How quickly does the appliance reach the desired temperature?

The patented heat dissipation and efficient Peltier technology ensure short heating and cooling times. The temperature stabilises at the programmed value after just a few minutes.

What maintenance work is required

A regular visual inspection of seals and any cleaning of the interior with suitable cleaning agents are usually sufficient to ensure trouble-free operation. The water supply via canisters must also be checked regularly.
