Validation and Real-Time Mapping of Pharmaceutical Warehouses

Before a new large-scale warehouse in Noida, Hyderabad, or Pune can be commissioned for GxP storage, it must undergo a rigorous "Thermal Performance Validation" study. Vayu systems are placed in "worst-case" positions—near the ceiling, at the center, and against the outer walls—to identify how the HVAC system performs under extreme ambient heat. Unlike traditional loggers where data is checked after the study, Vayu allows Quality Managers to view the mapping progress live on a cloud dashboard. This mapping is a mandatory requirement for WHO and GMP compliance. Once the mapping is complete, the loggers provide the data needed to create a final validation report. This use case transforms environmental data into operational intelligence, proving to auditors that the facility is fit for purpose. By analyzing these live data points, manufacturers can optimize airflow and cooling set-points in real-time, reducing energy costs while maintaining 100% thermal safety for the products stored inside before actual stocks are introduced, ensuring the infrastructure is functioning correctly.
