Ally Energy Solutions provides COVID-19 site screening technology to essential businesses across the U.S.

Infrared temperature check stations provide rapid, accurate, and safe screenings for large-scale factories, food production facilities, and warehouses

Ally Energy Solutions provides COVID-19 site screening technology to essential businesses across the U.S.
April 30, 2020

Ally Energy Solutions is pleased to announce its collaboration with long-time food production partners and technology supply chain vendors to identify, assess, source, and deploy a rapid, accurate, and safe temperature pre-screening system for employees entering manufacturing or food production facilities, shipping and distribution warehouses, and other high-volume business environments. Within seconds, the system, which uses highly sensitive infrared camera technology, scans an individual’s face and obtains a highly accurate internal reference temperature that can be used to determine safe entry or the need for a second temperature reading.

“Because of our longstanding relationships with our supply chain partners and clients, we were able to quickly pivot in order to provide this screening technology,” said Ally Executive Vice President and Founding Partner Troy Moran. “In our first deployment at an essential food production facility, we scanned 1,000 workers, identified 25 of those workers for secondary scans, and confirm 12 had elevated temperatures.”

The infrared scanning process can be conducted while maintaining the recommended six- foot distance between scan operator and employee – an improvement over handheld scanners which, by nature, require close proximity. With the infrared system, employee wellness is increased, the potential spread of the virus is decreased, and essential businesses can continue to operate.

 

Covid19 Site Screening Technology Details:

The Ally team configures, pre-commissions, and delivers the self-contained screening system, then provides onsite set-up and operator training. The system includes a heat-sensing camera, a PC loaded with pre-configured software and a clear partition shield that provides a physical barrier between the scan subject and the scan operator. The operator and subject are able to maintain the recommended 6’ distance throughout the process.
