Friocell EVO Photostability

ICH Q1B-Compliant Photostability Chambers

Friocell EVO photostability chambers support pharmaceutical and food and beverage light-exposure testing with precise temperature control and configurable UV-Vis lighting for ICH Q1B studies. Designed for accurate, repeatable performance, the Friocell EVO helps teams assess product and packaging stability while supporting shelf life and regulatory requirements.

Repeatable

ICH Q1B-compliant lighting, patented forced-air convection, and sophisticated controls work together to maintain uniform chamber conditions for consistent, repeatable photostability testing.

Flexible

Adjustable lighting options and capacity for up to 100 programs with 100 segments each to support a wide range of products, packaging, and exposure profiles.

Smart

Microprocessor controls with Fuzzy Logic continuously adjusts chamber inputs in real time to maintain stable conditions without overshoot.

Compliant

Pharmaceutical-grade stainless steel chamber construction supports cleanliness and long-term performance, while optional 21 CFR Part 11 compliant Warmcomm software secures your data and ensures audit-readiness.

Built for Stable Performance

Durable chamber construction designed to protect study conditions and support long-term reliability.

Friocell EVO photostability chambers are engineered for regulated pharmaceutical and laboratory environments, where chamber construction directly affects performance, cleanliness, and long-term reliability. With a pharmaceutical-grade AISI 304 stainless steel interior and five layers of insulation, the Friocell EVO is built to deliver durability, temperature uniformity, and efficient operation under demanding daily use.
Seamless 304 stainless steel chamber with rounded corners to simplify cleaning.
Fully removable inner chamber walls improves access for cleaning and maintenance.
Shelf brackets are molded into the chamber walls and spaced 2.8″ apart.
4-point door latch system securely seals the door to the chamber gasket.
Five layers of insulation to efficiently maintain chamber conditions.
(2″) 50mm stainless steel port – (1″) 25mm, (2″) 50mm, (4″) 100mm port options available.
Inner glass door allows sample viewing without disrupting chamber conditions.

Flexible Lighting Options for ICH Q1B Photostability Studies

Configurable light source, placement, and intensity options.

Friocell EVO photostability chambers are designed to deliver the controlled light exposure and stable chamber conditions required for repeatable ICH Q1B testing. With configurable UV and visible light options, flexible lighting placement, and adjustable intensity settings, the Friocell EVO can be adapted to your specific product, packaging, and exposure requirements to support consistent photostability testing across a range of applications.
