Incubator Mapping & Validation Services
Cultures don’t grow on the controller’s sensor — they grow wherever the tech put the tray.
ACS Calibration offers NIST-traceable incubator mapping and validation services at your facility across the Southeast. Studies evaluate temperature distribution and stability under agreed operating conditions.
Thermal mapping and validation studies are specialized NIST-traceable profiling services performed with calibrated data loggers; studies are conducted outside ACS Calibration’s ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration scope.
Every Shelf Is Its Own Climate
Incubators hold biological work at tight setpoints — 37 °C cultures, controlled CO₂ environments, stability samples — and shelf position matters: door proximity, airflow shadows, and stacking all create zones the display never mentions.
We map incubators with calibrated loggers across shelves and zones, documenting uniformity, stability, and door-recovery behavior with a full report. Incubator calibration, logger calibration, and whole-room mapping complete the program.
What You Receive With Your Study
- Study setup and data logger locations.
- Recorded temperature data and study conditions.
- Temperature distribution and stability results.
- Evaluation against agreed acceptance criteria, where included in the study.
- Identification of the data loggers and their calibration references.
