TQSoft and TQAero
Thermal Validation
Software Technical Data
For FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and AMS 2750 compliant
data collection
The Fluke 2638A Hydra Series III and Fluke Calibration 1586A Super-DAQ are ideal
for general purpose and precision temperature data acquisition applications. Ther-
mal validation software from TQSolutions has long supported the Fluke Hydra Series
data loggers. TQSoft and TQAero now support the Fluke 2638A and 1586A products
for enhanced data collection and reporting required in regulated industries.
Many data acquisition applications require com-
pliance to government and standards agency
requirements (for example, 21 CFR Part 11 and
AMS 2750). Software from TQSolutions has been
designed to enable engineers, technicians, and
lab managers to meet the key guidelines for tem-
perature data collection. These software solutions
provide a complete qualification, reporting, docu-
mentation, and audit trail management system.
TQSoft
• Compliance with United States Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) Title 21 CFR Part 11 regu-
lations on electronic records and signatures for
incubation, sterilization, freezing, drying and
temperature mapping validation applications in
pharmaceutical and biomedical industries.
• Developed in accordance with Good Automated
Manufacturing Practice (GAMP) from the Inter-
national Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering
(ISPE).
• Compliance with European standards for ster-
ilization, decontamination, and disinfecting
(EN554, EN285, EN15883, HTM2010, HTM2030),
ISO 15833 requirements for washer-disinfectors,
and ISO 17025 competence requirements for
testing and calibration laboratories.
• Has been audited by major pharmaceutical com-
panies and its quality documentation has passed
FDA audits.
TQAero
• Compliance with National Aerospace and
Defense Contractors Accreditation Program
(NADCAP) and SAE International AMS 2750
guidelines covering industrial heat treating
applications in aerospace and transportation
industries.
• Supports heat treatment processes validation
by Temperature Uniformity Survey (TUS) and
System Accuracy Test (SAT) procedures required
by AMS 2750.
Key features
Easy menu system and toolbar
TQSoft and TQAero provide a menu system
designed to simplify thermal validation test setup.
The left panel guides you step by step. Dropdown
arrows on the right list the full range of options. If
desired, easily switch to the toolbar for access to
all software features.

Data security and audit trail
TQSoft and TQAero check data files used to
produce reports. Any changes made by an unau-
thorized person will render records unusable. All
changes made by an authorized user are audited
with full details of the changes made and actions
performed.
Test equipment preparation and sensor
calibration
Both TQSoft and TQAero guide you through data
logger channel configuration and communications
setup with a temperature source, thermometer
readout, and reference probe. Fluke 2638A and
1586A models are automatically detected as
data loggers for easy setup. Prior to a thermal
validation test, an automatic or manual sensor
calibration can be performed to determine multiple
point offsets for each channel to correct for sensor
measurement inaccuracy. When the sensors
and reference probe are detected to be stable as
defined, the software automatically applies all
correction offsets, generates, and saves a full and
traceable calibration report.
Thermal validation test setup
TQSoft and TQAero allow you to set up and
manage a three-dimensional (3D) wire diagram of
the chamber space. Drag and drop sensors to their
correct position in the 3D space. The completed
diagram can be rotated and magnified. There
are options for real time display of measurement
values and to represent temperature gradients
with color shading at each sensor position. After
the test is complete, a real time display can be
replayed with a time slider showing temperature
behavior in the chamber. Completed diagrams can
be easily added to reports.
Sample test specifications
Sample test specifications are included to help
you quickly become familiar with the software.
The test specification contains selection settings
for target temperature, channel configuration,
all calibration information, and all temperature
parameters. When you select a test specification
and start a test, all settings are automatically
applied by the software, and a report can be auto-
matically generated at the end of the test. Once
you are familiar with the software, you can make
modifications and create new test specifications to
meet your specific needs.

Reports
TQSoft and TQAero include a large library of tem-
plates for creating reports tailored to the needs of
individuals, organizations, processes, and equip-
ment. It’s easy to assemble a full report from the
report sections. Cover pages, charts, data lists, cal-
ibration reports, calibration certificates, etc. can be
included. The Report Manager window has been
designed to manage and print complete reports.
