Each stability chamber operates independently with its own temperature and, where applicable, humidity controls. All storage chambers are continuously monitored by a computerized Kaye Monitoring System and a hardwired security system. Temperature and humidity setpoint windows are 2 degrees C and 5% RH, respectively, and failures outside setpoint ranges result in an immediate alert to the stability staff.

Additionally, all of our storage chambers are on full generator backup in case of power failure. Backup power is fully operational within 6 seconds of power failure.
