Supported Applications
The Extech (FLIR) OS200 Series, specifically the Model IR200 Non-Contact Forehead Infrared Thermometer, is designed for scanning groups or monitoring individuals to detect elevated body temperatures. The device features distinct modes for measuring human forehead temperature and general surface temperature.
• Scanning individuals for potential elevated temperatures
• Monitoring groups in screening assessments
• Measuring non-contact surface temperatures on objects
The instrument is not a substitute for clinical thermometers. It should be used as part of a broader health screening assessment, with abnormal readings verified by additional medical devices or healthcare professionals.
Operating Conditions & Performance
The OS200 Series utilizes infrared (IR) non-contact technology to measure temperature within specific ranges for body and surface modes. For the most accurate results in Body mode, operation is recommended in an ambient environment of 73°F to 82°F (23°C to 27°C).
Performance specifications include:
• Body Temperature Range: 89.6°F to 108.5°F (32.0°C to 42.5°C)
• Surface Temperature Range: 32°F to 140°F (0°C to 60°C)
• Body Mode Accuracy: ±0.5°F/±0.3°C
• Surface Mode Accuracy: ±1.5°F/±0.8°C
• Resolution: 0.1°F/°C
• Response Time: 0.5 seconds (500ms)
The device is powered by two 'AA' batteries and features an LCD display with icons for memory location, alarm status, temperature units, low battery indication, and the active measurement mode.
Configuration Options
The series includes configurable operational modes selected via a Body – Surface switch. The unit provides data memory storage capabilities and adjustable alarm settings to flag elevated temperatures during screening processes.
• Housing: Compact handheld design with dimensions of 6.3x3.2x1.7" (160x82x42mm) and a weight of 6.24oz (177g).
• Sensor Interface: Equipped with an IR sensor lens protected by the housing; users must avoid touching or scratching this component.
• User Controls: Includes ▲/▼ buttons for navigation, a MODE button, and a measurement trigger.
The device is certified to CE, RoHS, and FC standards. It does not require replacement probe covers due to its non-contact design.
Key Product Differences
The OS200 Series currently encompasses the Model IR200 Forehead Temperature InfraRed Thermometer. The primary functional distinction within this model is the selectable measurement mode:
• Body Mode: Optimized for forehead scanning with a narrower temperature range (89.6°F to 108.5°F) and higher accuracy tolerance.
• Surface Mode: Designed for general object measurement across a wider span of 32°F to 140°F, with an expanded accuracy specification suitable for non-medical applications.
- Internal memory stores up to 32 readings for easy recall
- Visual and audible alarm when programmed limit is crossed
- Measures body and forehead temperature from 89.6°F to 108.5°F (32.0°C to 42.5°C) without contact
- Ideal for non-contact forehead body temperature measurement
