Three, infrared body thermometer

Zuo Chen infrared body thermometer: By measuring the forehead or ear tympanic membrane of the radiant temperature, non-contact to achieve the human body temperature measurement. Medical grade infrared thermometer, a key to temperature measurement, easy to operate, using high precision infrared sensing probe, temperature measurement is more accurate, three-color intelligent backlighting to easily determine the temperature status, green body temperature is normal, yellow body temperature is high, red fever reminder, body temperature mode, temperature mode, one-key switch, home standing supplies, goodbye to the traditional way of measuring the measurement distance of 3-5cm, no contact, no risk of measurement, No cross-infection, No cross-contamination. No cross-infection, the baby does not reject, 10 seconds after the automatic shutdown, power saving and worry.
