Land Ametek’s VIRALERT 3 is a cost-effective solution for taking temperature while maintaining social distancing. It is the first IR temperature monitoring system to provide a camera and a temperature controlled reference source on a single mounting. This provides continuous calibration to ensure accuracy while keeping the system easy to use. The thermal imaging and visual camera are in a single housing with an installation time of less than 30 minutes by an untrained user.
Some unique advantages of this system include:
- Quick and simple alerts: green for go, red for alarm display in less than 2 seconds
- 1 week lead time
- Single compact system and mount eliminate errors due to measurement distance
- Can be used indoor or outside as reference standard can be adjusted to accommodate hot or cold ambient conditions

Technical Specifications
Accuracy: +/- 0.5⁰ C (+/-0.9 ⁰F) at a distance of 1 meter
Software: Continuous live thermal and visual impage with automatic face detection. Abnormal high temperatures displayed in red, with on-screen and audio alarms. Calculates core temperature from measured skin temperature.
Imager: Connects to a local PC for display and power. Operates between 10-50⁰C (50-122⁰F)
Imager visual: CMOS color sensor 1.2MP (1280×960) resolution at 50 fps
Imager thermal: With a measurement range from 30-45⁰C (86-113⁰F), the imager has a 39 x 31⁰ field of view, frame rate of <9H and temperature resolution of <0.12⁰C (<0.22⁰F)
Blackbody reference source: Powered by a 5V DC (USB) from a universal power adaptor, the fixed temperature reference source is at 38⁰C (100.4⁰F) for a combined accuracy/stability of +/-0.2⁰C (+/-0.3⁰F)
