The JXB-178 Digital Infrared Thermometer, distributed by TELE System, detects body temperature from a distance of 3–5 cm from the forehead without physical contact. A single press of the Scan button delivers a result in under 1 second, displayed on a backlit LCD screen that changes colour based on the temperature reading.

The device also measures object surface temperature (0°C–60°C) and ambient room temperature (0°C–40°C). It complies with EU Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC, ISO 80601-2-56, and European standards EN60601-1-2, and is rated for up to 100,000 measurements. It does not replace professional medical diagnosis.

Product Benefits

• The 3–5 cm contactless measurement eliminates the need to touch the patient, reducing cross-contamination risk
• The three-colour display conveys fever status at a glance without reading the exact number
• Memory for 32 readings allows comparison of readings across multiple checks without noting results manually
• The 100,000-measurement rating makes the JXB-178 suitable for frequent professional use
• Dual-mode capability (body, surface, room) makes it useful beyond medical temperature checks
