Check critical food temperatures and monitor HACCP food safety zones with this combination contact/noncontact thermometer. LED’s rapidly indicate if food temperature is in the bacterial growth safety zone. Green lights indicate safe temperatures below 40°F (4°C) and above 140°F (60°C). Red light indicates the HACCP danger zone between 40 to 140°F (4 to 60°C). The contact probe swings out for internal temperature checks, then folds in for storage. IR mode provides quick, noncontact surface measurements and stores maximum reading. Target illumination indicates target measurement area and is ideal for close working distances of 2 to 12”.
