Environmental Monitoring and Testing Equipment

Environmental monitoring and testing equipment are used to test for surface and airborne contaminants within pharmaceutical clean rooms and other controlled environments. The data is often used for regulatory compliance and manufacturing protocols for safety and QA.
Control of the environment and the attendant testing which is required in facilities where pharmaceutical products are manufactured is a key component of Good Manufacturing Practice. Within any facility, variables such as temperature, humidity, airborne particulates, and microbiological contamination all require monitoring and control to ensure they do not adversely impact the quality of the product being manufactured.

Environmental Monitoring and Testing Equipment

Environmental Monitoring and Testing Equipment is designed to detect and identify any number of contaminants that might affect the quality of a pharmaceutical.
Air quality monitoring equipment is used to test for the presence of air contaminants, which may include a wide range of environmental pollutants, gases, microbes, moisture, and other particulates.

Common Types of Environmental Monitoring and Testing Equipment

Airborne contaminants can settle onto equipment and surfaces and potentially contaminate the results of experimental procedures and manufacturing processes. By monitoring air contamination labs and processing facilities can ensure consistent quality from R&D through large-scale manufacturing.
