Because of heat loss from various parts of the body that
are not covered by clothing, the normal temperature
measured on a person’s forehead is usually lower than
covered parts of the body. The
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) accuracy requirements
in the display range of 98°F–102°F (37°C–39°C) for infrared thermometers
is +/- 0.4 °F (+/-0.2 °C), whereas for mercury-in-glass and electronic
thermometers, the requirement per ASTM Standards E667–86 and
E1112–86 is +/- 0.2°F (+/-0.1 °C).
This infrared thermometer meets
Brooklands Incorporated
requirements established in ASTM
Standard (E1965-98). Full responsibility for the conformance of this product
temperature of the study group. Body temperature is
individual to the person and can vary on a healthy person
by more than +/- 1°C from 37°C (98.6°F). Your body
temperature is inuenced by many factors including but
not limited to the time of day, gender, age, ambient
temperature and metabolic activity.
VeraTemp™
Non-Contact Thermometer’s internal software
automatically adjusts the temperature to provide a
reading which approximates the body temperature.
