A stability chamber is essential for pharmaceutical facilities to test the stability and quality of products over time by exposing them to different environmental conditions. This paper introduces an IoT-enabled stability chamber designed for the pharmaceutical industry. We constructed four stability chambers by leveraging the existing infrastructure within a manufacturing facility. Each chamber is controlled using a state-of-the-art Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) system based on the Siemens S7-1200 PLC. The Siemens WinCC Runtime Advanced platform, compliant with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, was used for visualizing chamber data. Additionally, an Internet of Things (IoT) application was developed to remotely monitor sensor data through any client application. This research aims to enhance the performance of traditional stability chambers by integrating IoT functionalities, making them more cost-effective and user-friendly.
