When environmental conditions drift by even a fraction of a degree in a cleanroom, the consequences can be severe. In life science cleanrooms, any critical environmental parameter, such as temperature or relative humidity, can compromise product integrity or research outcomes, with losses that go far beyond energy costs.

Vaisala, a global leader in measurement instruments and intelligence for climate action, introduces Origo, a modular measurement platform designed to transform environmental monitoring in cleanrooms and other mission-critical buildings in pharmaceutical, biotech, and related industries.

Accuracy that meets regulatory demands

In pharmaceutical and biotechnology cleanrooms, measurement precision is not just about operational efficiency—it is fundamental to product quality and regulatory compliance. Maintain product quality and support operational excellence by monitoring parameters such as humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide, and dew point. Vaisala Origo delivers ±0.1 °C temperature accuracy and ±1% RH humidity accuracy for stable, reliable environmental control.

Flexibility built into the platform

Choose the measurement parameters that fit your specific needs. Combine the Origo10 transmitter with one or two probes from an extensive list to accommodate the required accuracy, parameter, and size specifications. Factory-calibrated interchangeable probes and preconfigured analog outputs speed up commissioning and maintain control loop accuracy from day one.

The XMP10 RH+T probe allows teams to replace probes quickly with factory calibration, helping to avoid downtime and ensuring precise measurements where they matter most—ideal for large sites with a multitude of measurement points. Origo’s field-replaceable probes allow quick on-site updates with minimal interruption. This feature is particularly valuable in cleanroom operations where maintaining environmental control during equipment servicing is essential.

Designed for the long term

In critical environments, reliable measurements help prevent unpleasant surprises. With Origo, conditions can be optimized for smarter use of energy, time, and resources. The Origo family of HVAC transmitters is designed to make measurement, integration, and maintenance straightforward. With multiple output options, Origo helps building management system engineers and facility teams reduce commissioning time, simplify maintenance, and improve control accuracy in critical spaces. This flexibility makes it adaptable to evolving measurement requirements.

Support that extends beyond the hardware

Backed by Vaisala’s commitment to reliability, Origo ensures accurate measurements and dependable performance throughout its service life, helping operators protect processes, reduce risk, and optimize resources. Vaisala’s wide range of services, from accredited calibrations to technical support, is available to complement on-site expertise.
