Description
The Adtemp 412 is ADC's super low-cost digital stick, sized at 5 inches and 11 grams and packed 20 to a box for single-patient assignment across a whole unit. It gives infection-conscious facilities a real ASTM-compliant thermometer at a per-patient price that makes assignment practical.
- Bulk 20-pack format – Twenty thermometers per box (240 per case) stock a full unit in one order.
- 4,500-measurement battery – The replaceable 1.55V LR41 battery provides up to 4,500 measurements per unit.
- Full clinical range – Measures 90.0 to 109.9 degrees Fahrenheit (32.0 to 42.9 degrees Celsius).
- Integral storage case – Each thermometer's case keeps the instrument sanitary between readings.
Single-Patient Thermometry at Fleet Scale
This digital thermometer is the economical end of the Adtemp line, built for assigning one instrument per patient instead of carrying one device room to room. Despite the price, it meets the accuracy requirements for intermittent thermometers under ASTM E1112 across its 90.0 to 109.9 degree Fahrenheit range. The compact body measures 5 inches long and weighs just 11 grams, small enough for supply carts and admission kits. Bulk packaging of 20 per box and 240 per case matches how facilities actually consume single-patient instruments. Isolation units, long-term care, and high-turnover wards get compliant thermometry they can assign freely.

Why Choose This Digital Thermometer
Shared thermometers are a cross-contamination pathway that everyone accepts because dedicated devices used to cost too much. A compliant stick at this price removes the excuse and lets facilities assign one per patient as a matter of policy. The two-year warranty on an economy instrument underlines that this is a clinical tool, not a giveaway.
- Assignment economics – The per-unit cost finally makes one-per-patient the default rather than the exception.
- Standards-compliant – ASTM E1112 accuracy means economy never becomes approximation.
- Fleet packaging – Boxes of 20 and cases of 240 match real consumption patterns.
- Two-year backing – Coverage runs two years, remarkable at this price point.
