ANDATECH BREATHALYSER PRECISION FUEL CELL BREATH TESTER

One of the most accurate Fuel-Cell Technology Breathalysers on the market today!!

This unit is a testing/reference unit which is only used as a reference on breathalyser calibration. It will be pre-calibrated to ensure its accuracy before it is sent out.

The unit is in excellent working condition. It has few hardly seen scratches from normal usage.. Happy Bidding !

COMES WITH TOUGH METAL CASE - YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY WHEN YOU DROP IT !

A BASIC GUIDE TO GETTING A GOOD BREATHALYSER

• CERTIFICATION: Check whether the alcohol tester has been cleared by the recognised organisation e.g. SAI GLOBAL (Australian Standard), FDA (Food and Drug Administration), D.O.T. (Department of Transportation), NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration).
• TECHNOLOGY: Mainly, there are four types of alcohol sensor technologies:
  • 1. Semiconductor Sensor Standard Models (also known as Hot Wire Model).
    the presence of standard semiconductor units has increased rapidly over the past few years. The main advantage with these types of units is that they are very cheap (from $10 to $99). Most of these units require no mouthpiece under normal use require recalibration every 6-12 months.
    Designed for: Personal use, Gifts, Promotional Items, Corporate Gifts.Note: Breathalysers that don't use mouthpieces are not as accurate as breathalysers that do. Cheaper or "blow hole" breathalysers offer low cost testing, with no mouth pieces to replace, but by not measuring pure deep lung breath they will never give as accurate results as sealed tube breathalysers. They remain suitable for non-critical consumer/self-testing.
    
  • 2. Semiconductor Sensor Professional Models.
    Professional-grade units meet strict requirements for approval and testing. These units have built-in air flow detection and are programmed to test deep-lung air samples. They have a long lifespan as long as they’re properly calibrated and maintained. Sensor replacement is a must after ever 400-500 uses.
    Designed for: Personal use, Drivers, Non-Evidential Workplace Testing, Medical professionals, Schools, parents.
  • 3. Fuel Cell Sensor Models.
    Fuel Cell units are considered to have one of the best sensors for an alcohol tester. They used by police officers, medical professionals, mining and transport industries. They are designed to have hundreds of test per day. Compared to the semi conductor sensor, the fuel cell unit can give more accurate readings to 3 decimal places reading e.g. 0.052 %BAC). The disadvantage is that they are expensive (normally 4 times the cost of a semiconductor sensor professional breathalyser). Sensor replacement is not required for fuel cell breathalysers
    Designed for: Law Enforcement, Drivers, Non-Evidential Workplace Testing, Medical professionals, Schools, Parents.
  • 4. Infrared (IR) Spectroscopy or Infrared Sensor Models.
    These units utilise the best sensor of all alcohol testers, and the best sensor of all alcohol testers, and are also known as evidential units. The price tag on Infrared Breathalysers is $50,000~$200,000. Infrared Bretahlyser is only operated by professional or fully trained person.
    Designed for: Enforcement, Evidential Testing, Medical professionals.
• CALIBRATION: All digital breathalysers require recalibration, how often depends on the sensor.
  Many buyers get confused by the term “calibration”, which is technical service, performed by manufacturers and dealers, to set up the accuracy of the breathalyser and ensure it gives a standardised reading at set concentrations of alcohol. At each recalibration service the breathalyser is reset to ensure accurate readings. Please note that calibration is not part of warranty.
• SERVICE AND SUPPORT: Ensure the breathalyser company is an Australian Quality Endorsed Company with full contact details (not just a P.O. Box or registered mail drop). To ensure your breathalyser continues to perform properly, the breathalyser company must have the parts, tools, equipment and experience to maintain your breathalyser and conduct any repairs that may be required.

The AlcoSense Precision is a state of the art instrument used to detect Ethyl Alcohol from a valid breath sample. The AlcoSense Precision uses an electrochemical fuel cell to measure the concentration of alcohol from the exhaled human breath. High Acuracy 4 digit platinum electrochemical fuel cell sensor digital breathalyser with advanced SONIX micro controller technology. If alcohol is present, a corresponding voltage is generated from the fuel cell, which is proportional to the alcohol content of the sample provided by a human subject. This voltage is then sent to the Micro controller to calculate and display a subjects %BAC

Main Features :

• Most accurate breathalyser with fuel sensor technology
• Accurate to 3 decimal places of %BAC Reading
• Highly accurate % BAC reading
• Perfect for professional, medical and law enforcement
• Cutting-edge US technology
• Very low price in comparison with other electrochemical breathalysers
• Short response time - within 3 seconds, even with a high concentration of alcohol
• Fast recovery time:
• Reacts only to alcohol;
• Long term stability;
• Large, visible, backlit in blue display with simple and plain-text
• Easy handling
• Quick and easy to use mouthpiece
• Long life time of the sensor
• Controlling system for measuring the blow time given by a signalling sound
• The test is carried out automatically and manually
• Compact and light weight hand-held device

• For drivers as a self-control device
• For drivers involved in the transportation industry such as bus drivers, tram drivers,aircrew, maritime and railway employees
• To check the operators of wheel-loaders, cranes and other heavy or dangerous equipment operators
• For security guard companies and health agencies
• For pubs, restaurants, hotels where there is a need for a highly accurate and reliable breathalyser
• To check “morning after” residual amounts of alcohol.

Semiconductor or Electrochemical (Fuel Cell) sensor?

There are two main types of alcohol sensors used in breathalysers - semiconductor and electrochemical. Semiconductor is more affordable, but less precise and stable. Non-linearity of the output constrains the testers with a semi-conductor sensor to two-point calibration. In contrary, Fuel Cell sensors are more accurate, stable, and more selective to alcohol (i.e. do not react to tobacco and other substances which can be present in a breath sample).

Fuel Cell Breathalysers are mostly used by law enforcement, medical and industrial use.
