Digital Ear Thermometer for Families
The Braun ThermoScan 5 is a digital ear thermometer designed for adults, children and infants. It measures infrared heat from the eardrum and surrounding tissue to reflect core body temperature. The device ships with 21 hygiene caps and two AA batteries so it is ready for household use straight away. Clinical validation supports its accuracy for newborns.
Pre-Use Checks for Accurate Readings
Before each measurement, confirm the lens is clean and free from obstructions. A fresh hygiene cap must be fitted for every reading to prevent cross-contamination between family members. The pre-warmed tip operates at 93°F to minimise cooling effects, so allow the unit to reach that temperature after switch-on. The ExacTemp stability indicator uses a light and beep to confirm correct probe placement.
Build Quality and Daily Handling
The white plastic body houses a patented pre-warmed tip engineered for repeatable accuracy to a tenth of a degree. Disposable caps snap onto the probe and are discarded after each use, removing the need for probe cleaning between patients. A protective cap shields the sensor during storage. The design supports quick, gentle measurements across all ages without recalibration.
