TAT-2000-EC: accurate, fast and robust
The TAT-2000-EC is part of a family of highly advanced Temporal Artery Thermometers. They are based on a very innovative infrared technology and use very innovative heat balance algorithms. Compared to more traditional methods for determining a patient’s body temperature, the TAT-2000-EC offers many advantages:

• highly accurate temperature measurement
• fast, safe and comfortable for the patient (non-invasive)
• quick and easy to use and will save a great deal of time because each measurement only takes 2-3 seconds
• resistant to aggressive disinfectants
• low costs, resulting in an average payback period of less than 1 year
• robust as the housing of the TAT-2000-EC is made of an internally developed Superplastic
• based on a technology that is supported by more than 100 peer-reviewed and published clinical studies
• and all this for a very cost effective price with no mandatory need for caps as the TAT-2000-EC can be cleaned quickly and effectively with just a cotton cloth and some alcohol
