Braun ThermoScan PRO 6000 Ear Thermometer
Accurate, reliable, and fast temperature measurement for professional use.
Why Measure Temperature in the Ear?
Clinical studies indicate that the ear is an excellent location for temperature measurement, as ear temperatures reflect core body temperature.1
Benefits of ear temperature measurement:
- Less invasive for the patient compared to oral, axillary, or rectal temperature measurements.
- No contact with mucous membranes, which could affect measurement accuracy.
A man's head is shown, with a Braun ThermoScan PRO 6000 ear thermometer being inserted into his ear by a hand. The thermometer is white and blue with a digital display showing '37.0°C'. The background is a soft blue and white gradient. The Baxter logo is visible in the top right corner, along with a 'Praxisdienst' logo.
How Does It Work?
When the PRO 6000 probe tip is placed in the ear, it continuously monitors the infrared energy emitted by the eardrum and surrounding tissues until thermal equilibrium is reached, allowing for an accurate measurement.2

Precise Measurements Compared to Core Body Temperature
Utilizes correction factors to counteract the risk of low readings.
PerfecTemp Technology – The PRO 6000 Advantage
PerfecTemp technology helps prevent the risk of low temperature readings compared to core temperature by compensating for factors that affect measurement accuracy.3
PerfecTemp technology addresses two main challenges in ear temperature measurement:
- Challenges arising from the anatomy of the ear canal.3
- Variability in probe placement technique.3
When probe positioning is not ideal, PerfecTemp supports accurate measurement compared to core temperature. PerfecTemp activates as soon as the probe tip is placed in the ear. It collects information about the direction and depth of the probe position and uses this in the temperature calculation.
Advanced Technology and Functions to Enhance Your Clinical Experience
- PerfecTemp technology compensates for inaccurate probe placement.
- ExacTemp technology detects probe stability during measurement. ⚙️
- A pre-warmed sensor supports precise measurements.
- The 60-second timer can assist with manual pulse and respiration rate measurements.
- The memory button displays the last recorded measurement. ?
- The C/F button provides quick conversion of readings. °C/°F
- Electronic and mechanical security features protect against theft and loss. ?
