Key Features
-
6-Second Rapid Response: Provides one of the fastest non-infrared readings available, improving patient compliance and throughput in busy clinical environments.
-
Patented Conductive Technology: Accurately calculates core body temperature by measuring the heat flow from the temporal artery to the skin, delivering results that correlate to oral readings.
-
Cost-Efficient & Hygienic: Does not require expensive probe covers. The water-resistant housing and probe tip can be easily sanitized with a 70% isopropyl alcohol swab between uses.
-
Audible Alerts: Features a distinct “ready” beep and a final completion tone to ensure the clinician knows exactly when the measurement cycle is finished.
-
Auto-Off Function: To preserve battery life, the unit automatically powers down after approximately 60 seconds of inactivity.
-
Compact & Lightweight: Weighing only 1.3 oz (including batteries), the ergonomic design fits comfortably in a lab coat pocket for mobile use.
⚠️ Handling: For topical use only. Do not use on scarred tissue, open sores, or abrasions. Ensure the temple area is dry and free of hair or perspiration for the most accurate result. Wait at least 2 minutes between consecutive readings on the same patient to allow the sensor to recalibrate to ambient temperature.
