Description
The Adtemp 427 Temple Touch reads forehead temperature in about six seconds without entering anything, using patented conductive technology at the temple. For sleeping children, infection-conscious units, and high-volume screening, it removes both the probe cover bill and the patient disturbance.
- Six-second non-invasive readings – Conductive temple measurement delivers clinically accurate results in about 6 seconds.
- No probe covers – The non-contact-style workflow avoids costly covers and reduces cross-contamination risk.
- Compact 1.05-ounce body – At 4.77 inches long and just over an ounce, it rides in any pocket.
- 1,000-cycle battery rating – The included CR2032 lithium battery is rated for a minimum of 1,000 full duty cycles.
Temple Measurement Without Covers or Contact Battles
This forehead thermometer uses patented conductive technology at the temple to produce clinically accurate readings in about six seconds. Because nothing is inserted and no cover is consumed, the design suits hospitals, clinics, and physician offices watching both infection control and supply costs. An audible tone marks completion, last-reading memory supports charting, and auto-off conserves the battery between patients. The dual-scale display reads in Fahrenheit or Celsius across a 95 to 107.6 degree Fahrenheit range, meeting ASTM E1112 accuracy requirements. Pediatric floors, screening stations, and home caregivers get a reading before the patient has time to object.

Why Choose This Temple Touch Thermometer
Every probe cover is a small recurring tax on temperature taking, and every inserted probe is a negotiation with a tired child. A six-second temple reading removes both costs at once while staying inside ASTM accuracy requirements. For screening volume and pediatric calm, the math and the bedside manner point the same way.
- Zero consumable cost – No probe covers to buy, stock, or landfill, a running saving other formats cannot match.
- Six-second calm – Readings finish before most children register the touch.
- Pocketable at one ounce – The lightest thermometer format in the line travels anywhere.
- Two-year backing – Coverage runs two years for the original purchaser.
