Temperature Scanner for Penjara Kajang

Temperature Scanner Solution – Penjara Kajang

Project Background:

The need for robust health and safety measures has become increasingly important, especially in high-risk environments such as correctional facilities. As part of an initiative to enhance health screening and early detection of abnormal body temperatures, Penjara Kajang, one of Malaysia’s major prison complexes, commissioned a project for the supply and commissioning of an advanced temperature screening system.

The project involved the delivery and setup of an Automatic Temperature Scanner Solution, designed to ensure efficient, non-intrusive, and accurate body temperature monitoring. The aim was to safeguard the health of inmates, staff, and visitors by detecting elevated body temperatures—often an early sign of illness—at entry points, without causing delays or requiring physical contact.

Item Supplied:

To fulfill the requirements of this project, we supplied the Jetion JT-66K Non-Contact Thermal Imager, a high-performance thermal scanner designed for mass screening. The Jetion JT-66K is equipped with cutting-edge thermal imaging technology capable of detecting temperature anomalies quickly and accurately. Its contactless nature ensures hygiene and safety, eliminating the need for handheld devices or manual scanning, which could expose operators to risk.

The solution also included the corresponding Jetion thermal imaging software, enabling real-time monitoring, recording, and analysis of thermal data. The software is user-friendly and integrates seamlessly with existing surveillance systems. It provides alerts when temperatures exceed preset thresholds and generates comprehensive reports, enhancing administrative oversight and response readiness.

Client Overview – Penjara Kajang:

Penjara Kajang, or Kajang Prison, is a significant correctional institution located in Sungai Jelok, Selangor, Malaysia. As one of the country’s main prison facilities, it houses a large number of inmates and hosts a sizeable workforce, including prison officers, healthcare staff, administrative personnel, and visitors.

The nature of the environment demands high levels of security, efficiency, and proactive health management. With the ongoing concerns around infectious diseases such as COVID-19, prison environments are considered vulnerable due to enclosed spaces and high population density. As such, the installation of a thermal scanning solution is a strategic move to mitigate risks and enhance health protocols within the facility.

System Features and Benefits:

The Jetion JT-66K Thermal Scanner is engineered to deliver a range of advanced features suited for institutional use:

• Non-contact, Fast Screening: The scanner operates at a safe distance, enabling temperature screening of multiple individuals without the need for physical interaction.

• High Accuracy: The system provides a high level of temperature measurement accuracy (±0.3°C with calibration), ensuring reliable results.

• Real-time Monitoring: With the supplied software, prison authorities can monitor temperature data in real time, identify potential cases early, and respond quickly.

• Data Recording and Reporting: All scanned data can be stored, retrieved, and analyzed later, which is essential for compliance, audits, and health records.

• Integration Capability: The system is compatible with existing surveillance and security infrastructure, allowing seamless integration into daily operations.

Implementation and Commissioning:

Our team was responsible not only for the supply of the hardware and software but also for the full commissioning of the system. This included the physical installation, calibration, configuration, and system testing to ensure everything functioned optimally. We also conducted user training for relevant staff members to operate the scanner and software efficiently and to troubleshoot basic issues independently.

Conclusion:

The implementation of the Jetion JT-66K Temperature Scanner at Penjara Kajang represents a proactive approach to institutional health and safety. By leveraging thermal imaging technology, the prison enhances its preventive health measures, minimizes potential outbreaks, and ensures peace of mind for its staff and stakeholders.

This project is a part of our broader commitment to delivering innovative health screening and surveillance solutions tailored for public institutions, especially those operating in high-risk and high-traffic environments.
