Measurement, monitoring, and services for life sciences
Environmental monitoring systems
Vaisala viewLinc continuous monitoring systems help you capture critical conditions across cleanrooms, warehouses, laboratories, cold storage, and hospitals with reliable alarming, clear trend visibility, and inspection-ready reporting.
Designed to support requirements such as 21 CFR Part 11 and EU GMP Annex 11, viewLinc helps you generate compliant reports efficiently and maintain confidence in your data.
- Choose the monitoring approach that fits your site and IT model, including on-premises and cloud options.
- Standardize workflows for monitoring, alarm escalation, and documentation across teams and sites.
- Connect a wide range of devices to scale and expand monitoring as needs evolve.
Transmitters & probes
Vaisala industrial measurement instruments help you measure and control critical parameters across cleanrooms, labs, production areas, and support spaces—ensuring reliable operations and consistent environmental performance.
With modular transmitters and interchangeable smart probes, the Indigo ecosystem simplifies maintenance, reduces drift risk, and helps keep measurement performance aligned with regulated expectations.
Inline liquid concentration measurement
Vaisala inline process refractometers support Process Analytical Technology (PAT) and strengthen process understanding from development through full-scale production.
By delivering stable, repeatable data without sampling delays, inline refractive index measurement reduces variability and supports decision making in both upstream and downstream operations.
- Enable PAT-style monitoring with continuous concentration data for tighter process control.
- Improve efficiency by reducing cycle times, minimizing off-spec product, and limiting manual sampling.
Support hygienic and regulated applications with verification options and compliant documentation. Lightweight architecture is cybersecure and requires minimal IT support, eliminating a major headache.
Services for life science operations
From installation, mapping, and validation support to calibration, continuous care and maintenance, Vaisala experts help keep your operations consistent, reliable, and audit-ready throughout the system lifecycle.
- Plan and deploy efficiently with expert support for configuration, documentation, and validation readiness.
- Maintain performance and compliance with calibration and maintenance services that support data quality, reliability, and uptime.
- Scale with confidence through support for expansions, system updates, and long-term lifecycle management.
