A compact infrared thermometer built for kitchen and food-safety spot checks, reading surface temperature from -58F to 392F at an 8:1 distance-to-spot ratio. It has a built-in laser sight, backlit display, and adjustable high/low alarms that flash and beep when a reading strays outside a safe range. This NIST unit ships with a certificate of calibration traceable to NIST, useful for HACCP audits and documented quality programs.
