Contactless Elevated Body Temperature Scanner for Workplace Safety

Protecting employees and visitors is a top priority for every organization. The CheckMate EBT Sensor is a contactless body temperature screening solution designed to reduce the risk of spreading viruses such as influenza or COVID-19. This automated fever detection system helps businesses maintain workplace safety and comply with health monitoring protocols—without requiring additional staff.

CheckMate’s EBT (Elevated Body Temperature) Sensor is a simple solution that can be used for both employees and customers. It is an automated, safe, and intuitive fever measurement device that can be installed at each entry point.

  • CONTACTLESS body temperature scanner, providing minimized risk of contact contamination.
  • PRECISE MEASUREMENT with over 1,000 measuring points across a user’s eyes and forehead, delivering fever screening accuracy within +/- 0.3°C—ideal for public-facing businesses and healthcare facilities.
  • FAST & EFFICIENT SCREENING as a measurement takes less than 1 second per person, making it a perfect body temperature scanner for employee health checks during busy hours.
  • CONTROL ACCESS can be integrated as the sensor interfaces with automatic controls for doors or turnstiles and can be integrated with your existing access control and employee health screening systems.
  • NO STAFF REQUIRED to operate the sensor as readings are initiated automatically.
  • MONITORING by ProTELEC provides notifications regarding any staff with a detected fever, making it part of a broader remote health monitoring solution for businesses seeking around-the-clock protection.

Elevated Body Temperature (EBT) Measurement

Fever is a reliable early indicator of viral infection, and CheckMate’s employee fever detection system allows organizations to act quickly and reduce spread. Unlike standard infrared thermometers, this contactless thermal scanner uses advanced facial mapping to measure from the inner canthus (tear duct)—the most accurate surface for body temperature readings.

The process of approaching the EBT Sensor, measuring, and stepping away takes an average of 3-5 seconds. The LED bar shows the result directly with a GREEN or RED light. With a defined and consistent process, the sensor achieves a much more reproducible measurement than comparable methods.

Inner canthus scanning records body temperature instead of skin temperature

Unlike almost all other systems, the CheckMate EBT Sensor scans the inner canthus of the eye, rather than the forehead or warmest area of the face. Because of this, results are significantly more accurate. Below is an example showing how the face is mapped and the inner canthus is identified for measurement.

Scans can be reliably completed if users are wearing masks or hats, but glasses must be removed. This makes the CheckMate EBT ideal for COVID-19 screening in the workplace, where masks and PPE are required. The Tampering Protection feature prevents readings from being spoofed using hands, arms, or warm objects.

In independent testing by IPVM , the CheckMate EBT Sensor was found to be more difficult to trick with simulated elevated temperatures than similar units tested. In testing, the sensor was proven to be simple to set up at various heights to accommodate users with disabilities, and the interface is very easy to use. The EBT sensor will not give false low reads if someone is too far away, and instead will prompt the user to move closer.

24/7/365 Monitoring by ProTELEC

The CheckMate EBT is part of a fully monitored employee health screening system. Every scan is recorded and monitored by ProTELEC’s Emergency Monitoring Centre 24/7/365—ensuring your team is alerted immediately when fever is detected.

All tests are recorded and can be viewed through ProTELEC CheckMate’s Client web portal.

Key information collected includes body temperature, room temperature and humidity of the room at time of the scan. Both are factors that if outside allowable ranges, could impact accuracy.
