Refrigerator Mapping & Validation Services
Vaccines and reagents live in the worst corner of the fridge — mapping finds it before an excursion does.
ACS Calibration offers NIST-traceable refrigerator 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.
2 to 8, Everywhere, Proven
Pharmacy and laboratory refrigerators hold product in the 2–8 °C window — but compressor cycles, door traffic, and shelf placement create zones that dip toward freezing or drift warm while the display reads perfectly centered. CDC vaccine storage guidance and pharmacy inspections both push toward documented mapping.
We map refrigerators with calibrated loggers across shelves, drawers, and door zones — identifying the worst-case location where your continuous monitor belongs — with a full uniformity report. Pair with logger calibration and walk-in mapping for the whole cold chain.
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.
