Temperature mapping and qualification study is a process used to study the temperature distribution in a certain space. Due to the extreme season change, gulf countries have different temperature conditions as summer and winter. Therefore it is a challenge to maintain optimum temperature in storages and vehicles mainly because the assets have unavoidable operations such as door opening and power break downs.
The mapping and qualification study is more important because most of the time these assets contain temperature sensitive materials such as medicines, vaccines, food items, blood cells and etc. so in case if the storage area couldn’t maintain the particular temperature range then the whole set of goods will be a waste while making a big loss to the company.
In Eximia, we provide excellent temperature and humidity mapping and qualification studies for warehouses, cold rooms, small and medium vehicles, reefer trucks and refrigerators.
According to the SFDA (Saudi Food and Drug Authority) guidelines, it is vital to do temperature mapping study and temperature qualification study to all the storage and transport assets which contain temperature sensitive materials.
At Eximia, Temperature humidity mapping and qualification studies done according to the procedures issued by WHO (World Health Organization). So that we guarantee the studies are done according to the particular standards and through that we ensure the maximum value towards the customer.
And also through mapping and qualification study a customer can find the perfect place to store the good. As an example, we will consider a temperature controlled van which is used to transport a medicine between 2 and 8 °C.
The cooling unit is generally on one corner of the cargo compartment of the van. A control unit mounted inside the driver cabin the temperature inside the cargo compartment. We can set the control unit at a particular temperature e.g. 5°C and the temperature inside the cargo chamber. We assume that the temperature inside the van is around 5°C at all times.
However, there are various other parameters affecting the uniform distribution of the temperature inside the cargo chamber. Even when the cargo chamber is completely empty, the entire area of this chamber may not be able to maintain a uniform temperature distribution within 2 and 8°C. e.g. The corner far away from the cooling unit may reach temperature higher than 8°C, because of improper air circulation. Another area near the cooling unit may reach temperature below 2°C at certain times. Both these conditions are harmful for the medicine and will affect its efficacy.
The driver of the van has no means to identify such a situation. He may be keeping the medicine boxes as per his convenience and available space inside the van. This will compromise the quality of the medicine inadvertently. In order to find out such variations, we have to carry out a temperature mapping study inside the van before using the van for such transportation purposes.
The same situation arises for other facilities such as warehouse, cold room, refrigerator, thermally insulated boxes etc.
