Accutherm Non-Contact Thermometer
Accutherm Non-Contact Thermometer
Thermometer without contact has been developed using latest infrared technology. This technology allows temporal artery (TA) temperature to be taken at a distance of about 5cm away from the forehead.Precise, Instantaneous and without Contact, Accutherm is, to date, the most suitable thermometer for no risk temperature measurement. It has been demonstrated that this method of TA temperature measurement is more precise than tympanic thermometry and better tolerated than rectal thermometry .However, as with other types of thermometer, it is essential to use Accutherm properly in order to obtain reliable and stable results.You are therefore advised to read this instruction manual and thesafety precautions carefully before use.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
All objects, solid, liquid or gas, emit energy by radiation. The intensity of this energy depends on the temperature of the object. Accutherm infrared thermometer is therefore able to measure the temperature of a person by the energy the person emits. This measurement can be taken thanks to an external temperature probe on the device which permanently analyses and registers the ambient temperature. Therefore, as soon as the operator holds the thermometer near the body and activates the radiation sensor, the measurement is taken instantly by detection of the infrared heat generated by the arterial blood flow. Body heat can therefore be measured without any interference from the heat of the surrounding environment.
