3. What is the voltage for the Table-top Breathalyzer?

4. Which breathalyzer is right for me?
A - Public Places, such as Bars, Pubs, clubs, restaurants, and other public gathering places. The AlcoScan AL-3100 Table-Top Breathalyzer can be used to offer "free continous testing".
The
Police Force, Health Care Professionals, Military, and other Public disciplinary groups should consider the AlcoTector
as the breathalyzer for them. This is the most accurate of all
breathalyzers, and requires no calibration.
For personal/private use, the AlcoHawk Precision,
digital breathalyzer, is recommended for its reliability and accuracy. For
workplace screening or other uses in a professional setting, we recommend the
AlcoHawk PRO, AlcoScan AL-5000,
AlcoMate
Prestige (AL-6000),
or the
AlcoMate
Premium (AL-7000) .
Although the
AlcoScan AL-2500
is very convenient
and easy to use, please keep in mind that these devices are meant for simple
testing, and the lack of a mouthpiece can affect test results. We DO NOT
recommend this product
5. What is the BAC (blood alcohol concentration) limit for driving?
A -
The legal limit for BAC while driving varies from state to state across
the US, but most states use DUI / DWI limits of 0.08% to 0.10%.
6. Can I drive if my BAC is less than 0.08%?
A -
No, we do not recommend driving with any intake of alcohol. There is no
"safe" level of drinking before driving.
7. What is calibration/recalibration? Do I need it?
A -
Calibration of breathalyzers involves the manual setting of specific, known
laboratory BAC samples against the readings
recognized by the device. All breathalyzers require initial calibration and
periodic recalibration in order to prevent inaccurate readings as alcohol and
other breath contaminants saturate the sensor after prolonged use. The
AlcoScan AL-3500
Coin Operated Breathalyzer
DOES
NOT require a re-calibration, simply change the sensor module every 500
tests.
8. What type of alcohol sensor is used by the
AlcoScan
AL-3100 Table-Top Breathalyzer?
A -
The AlcoScan AL-3100
Table-Top Breathalyzer uses a state-of-the-art oxide semiconductors which are
sensitive to the detection of alcohol and resistant to breath contaminants that
may affect test results..
9. Cleanup / Maintenance
In order to extend the life of your breathalyzer, we recommend the following steps after each breath test:
10. Important Reminders
The oxide semiconductor sensors used for alcohol detection measure BAC by the buildup of substance on the sensor surface. Because of this, you should avoid the following:
