What is a constant climate chamber?
Products such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics, food and packaging change over time under the influence of ambient temperature, humidity and light. These changes can affect their quality and function.
Environmental simulation studies these effects in constant climate chambers to give recommendations for transport, storage and use. Temperature, humidity (RH) and light are reproduced in the chamber.
A constant climate chamber holds setpoints steady over long periods; setpoint changes are relatively slow. Two technologies are used: electrical heaters combined with a compressor, or Peltier.
The best-known application is stability testing according to ICH (International Conference on Harmonisation). Other uses include sample pre-conditioning, plant growth and insect growth.

When the setpoint is near or below room temperature, the unit needs cooling. This can be compressor cooling (with electrical heaters) or Peltier (a single technology that cools in both directions). For constant-climate environmental simulation, Peltier offers several advantages over a compressor:
- Much lower energy use — up to 90% depending on the setpoint
- Less vibration and noise
- More compact — more chamber space for the same external dimensions
- Low maintenance — Peltier is robust and uses no cooling liquids
The ICH guideline explains how to run stability testing. These studies aim to establish:
- Expiration date of the finished pharmaceutical product
- Re-test period (expiration date of the active pharmaceutical ingredient)
- Selection of the correct excipients
- Storage temperature
- Necessary packaging components
- Handling during manufacture and transport
ICH covers two test types: long-term and accelerated.
Long-term testing runs under the recommended storage conditions for the proposed re-test period or shelf life. Accelerated testing uses harsher conditions to speed up chemical degradation or physical change of the API or FPP.
The goal is to predict long-term behavior under normal conditions (alongside long-term data) and to assess the effect of short excursions outside storage conditions, such as during shipping.
What is a dynamic climate chamber?
A dynamic climate chamber is built to program extreme, rapid temperature and humidity cycles that force accelerated ageing and failure. Setpoint changes are fast — about 5 °C per minute — using powerful electrical heaters combined with strong single or dual compressor technology.
Dynamic chambers target industries such as electrical engineering, automotive, defense, materials and packaging.
The goal is to determine:
- The lower and upper limits of destruction
- The climate range where functionality is guaranteed
- Latent design failures
- Conditions for transport, storage and intended use
- IEC 60068 provides guidance for dynamic environmental simulation testing.
