INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing our INNOMARK alpha
Breathalyzer! It measures the alcohol concentration in
human breath using an electrochemical sensor and
calculates the blood alcohol level. The test results are very
reliable and have a tolerance of +/- 0.05‰ (per mill = g/L)
with reference to 1.00‰ at 25°C ambient temperature. The
measurement results are displayed as a 3-digit number
with 2 decimals and are interpretable 1: 1 (for example the
display shows the value 0.36 = 0.36 per mill).
The sensor inside the device can be calibrated. To maintain
the measurement accuracy of this device and the sensor
warranty, it should be calibrated regularly. For a calibration
service you can send the device to the service address
specified at www.alkomat.net.
The device must only be used pursuant to the instructions
mentioned in this manual. All measured values determined
by this breathalyzer are always a guide only and are not
legally binding. Breath tests should be carried out using clip-
on mouthpieces (one new mouthpiece should be used per
test for reasons of hygiene and to avoid falsified readings).
NOTE TO COUNTRY-SPECIFIC MEASUREMENT UNITS
Customers in the EU receive the breathalyzer with ‰ (per
mill) as default setting, in the UK the default setting is mg/L,
and in the USA, it is % BAC. In the chapter „Technical data,"
you will find information about the accuracy concerning the
different measurement units. Please check the website of
the Department of Transportation, the website of the Ministry
of Transport, or automotive clubs to become informed about
the current alcohol limits in your country.
