X - Breathalyzer ACE - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL X ACE

Important notes on the Calibration

Each breathalyzer which you buy from ACE Instruments can also be calibrated by ACE Instruments. Of course, we also calibrate devices which were bought from other contractors, as long as these devices are identical in construction to the devices sold by ACE Instruments.

You can see the due date of the next calibration on the calibration sticker placed on your breathalyzer. If the sticker is missing, the calibration is to be done 6 months after the purchase date: e.g. purchase date: 13.05. = next calibration on the 13.11. and the next on the 13.05. of the following year.

For a calibration service you can send the device to the service address specified at www.alkomat.net.

Why is a calibration necessary?

The calibration is not mandatory, but the accuracy of the sensor installed in the breathalyzer will decrease steadily without a calibration and additionally guarantee expires, if you don't pay attention to the calibration ranges.

Which factors Influence the measurement accuracy

■ The more often the device is used the more the zero point is influenced.
■ The higher the alcohol concentration is, the more the zero point is relocated.
■ Devices which are used rarely have a decreased sensibility, too.

ACE Instruments recommends using the breathalyzer at least once (lx) a week independently of having drunken alcohol or not. To maintain the measurement accuracy, the breathalyzer should also be calibrated periodically.

Please also be aware of the several factors of influence on the measuring result

■ Alcohol amount
■ Period of the consumption of alcohol
Gender
Age
■ Weight
Height
■ Drinking habits
■ Health state
■ Vitality of the liver
■ Size of the lung
■ Admission of food during the consumption of alcohol
■ Influence of medicine

Important notes on test execution and self-assessment

After the last sip of alcohol you should wait at least 15 minutes, as there may still be residual alcohol in the oral cavity, which influences the measurement result. Also smoking should be avoided before a test, as cigarette smoke harms the sensor.

For each test you should use a new mouthpiece – not only for hygienic reasons, but also because an already used mouthpiece can influence the next measurement result. The mouthpiece could contain residual alcohol, which would affect the new test result when the same mouthpiece is used again (this for example could show an alcoholization of a person who hasn't drunken any alcohol).

If „BLOW ERROR" appears on the display, the given breath sample was insufficient or ended too soon. Blow into the moutpiece for about 4 seconds constantly (without a break) – preferably as if you were whistling without a sound.

If the same person performs 2 tests consecutively, then wait at least 3 minutes between the two tests, as a too short waiting time may cause different measurement results. The air exhaled from the lungs is, after a test, no longer enriched with the same alcohol content as in the previous test. Therefore, an immediate second test will indicate a lower test result.

All measured values determined with this breathalyzer are always indicative and not legally binding.

Why the estimated alcoholization and the measurement result in most cases cannot match

An alcohol test is affected by a lot of different factors which also affect the test result. Beside the gender, age, body size and body weight, also the body fat percentage and the amount of body fluid have a big influence.

In addition, the general physical and mental state or the current daily constitution have to be taken into consideration. Furthermore, the meals eaten before a breath test (type of content and level of the stomach) and the intake of medication may influence the measurement.

Other influencing factors are, of course, the type of drink (percentage of alcohol content in the beverage and its carbon dioxide and sugar content), the drinking rate and the individual subject's duration of alcohol build-up or degradation in the body.

Some people quickly have a high alcohol content in the blood, with other people it takes longer until an alcoholization is detected. About 40 - 50% of the consumed alcohol is in the body within 15 minutes, after 30 minutes it is 65% and after 70 minutes the previously consumed alcohol is 100% absorbed in the body. However, it should also be noted that some people - partly due to genetic factors - quickly reduce the alcohol content in the blood, whereas others still have an increased alcohol content in the blood after a longer period of time.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our Alcohol Tester ACE X breathalyzer! It measures the alcohol concentration in human breath using a premium fuel cell sensor and calculates blood alcohol content. For this alcohol tester there is an ongoing approval procedure for the certificate EN 15964:2011. With this certificate, the ACE X will meet all legal requirements placed on breath alcohol testers for multiple uses. With the EN 15964:2011 certificate, the ACE X will be approved for use as a pre-test device for police traffic checks.

The test results are very reliable and have a tolerance of +/- 0.05% (per mill = g/L) with reference to 1.00% at 25^ 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 test result is displayed with 4 digits and 3 decimals for % BAC measurements.

The premium fuel cell sensor inside this breathalyzer can be calibrated. To maintain the measurement accuracy of this device and the sensor warranty, it should be calibrated regularly. To calibrate the device, 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 only a guide 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.

Tips to Receive the Most Accurate Results

A) Wait at least 15 minutes after your last sip of alcohol. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during that time.
B) Do not open the casing.
C) Do not keep the breathalyzer in cold, hot, moist, or badly ventilated places.
D) Keep the breathalyzer out of the reach of children.
E) Conduct three inlet tests after long storage before conducting the actual alcohol test.
F) Do not drop the breathalyzer.

G) Change the battery if it is depleted. Diminished battery capacity leads to incorrect test results.
H) Do not conduct tests in loud (sound waves disrupt the sensor), drafty, or poorly ventilated places.
I) After a test result of 1.000 per mill (per mill = EU setting) / 0.100 % BAC (% BAC = US setting) / 0.500 mg/L (mg/L = UK setting) or higher the sensor needs rest time. In this case wait at least three minutes before starting the next test.
J) Do not conduct tests in very cold, very hot, or an unventilated, smoky ambience.
K) Store the breathalyzer in a way to avoid penetration by dust or liquids.
L) Blowing too hard may cause damage to the sensor as saliva flows into it.

Preparation for the Test

1. Push the battery cover (on the back of the device) downwards (1.A) and open it. Install the 2 batteries (delivered together with the device) in the battery compartment while taking note of the battery polarity (1.B). Close the battery cover again.

1.A 1.B

1. Insert a mouthpiece into the slot on the front left side of the breathalyzer. Ensure whether it is securely fitted. It is highly recommended to use a new mouthpiece for every test for sanitary reasons.

Conducting the Measurement

1. Press the start button on the front of the breathalyzer for 2 seconds (it is the top button). The device beeps once and the display briefly shows the alarm limit, date and time set in the device; in addition, a green and a red light illuminate simultaneously above the display. "WARMING UP" then appears on the display and at the same time a line moves from left to right (the unit is warming up).

2. At the end of the warm-up phase, the unit beeps twice and „START BLOW“ appears on the display.

Note: Press the menu button quickly during the warming up process, or as soon as "START BLOW" appears, if you want to check the 10 previous test results with a bar graph, which enables you to check visually whether your test results are higher than the alarm limit that you have set in the menu.

1. As soon as "START BLOW" appears on the display, start blowing gently into the previously attached mouthpiece for about 3 to 5 seconds until you hear 2 clicks and then 2 beeps tones (simply exhale slowly and without interruption, similar to whistling). While giving the breath sample you hear a continuous beep and the display shows "KEEP BLOW".

Note: If the breath sample has been interrupted or was too weak, „BLOW ERROR“ appears on the display. In this case, perform the test again by pressing the start button.

1. After hearing the 2 clicks and the 2 beep tones the breath sample is successfully finished and the instrument starts evaluating the measurement result. The red and green lights (above the display) flash alternately and "ANALYZING" appears on the display. After a few seconds, the measurement result is displayed with 3 digits (with 2 decimal places at g/L = per thousand) for 4 seconds. If the measured value is equal to or higher than the alarm limit, for example, 0.50 per mil, the red light flashes above the display for about 4 seconds and you hear a beep sound. If the measured value is lower than the alarm limit, for example, 0.50 per mil, the green light flashes above the display for about 4 seconds (without a beep sound).

2. To test again, simply press the start button briefly.

Note A: The unit switches off automatically after approx. 180 seconds. You will hear 5 beep tones and „POWER OFF* will appear on the display. For a new test simply press the start button again. You can also switch off the unit manually by pressing the start button for approx. 2 seconds, 4 beep tones can be heard. „POWER OFF* will briefly appear on the display and the unit will be switched off.

Note B: As soon as the total test number reaches 9,000, you will see a pre-warning message on the display which is shown every time when you turn on the device and additionally you will hear 1 beep tone. This pre-warning message and the beep tone will shortly pop up and be heard whenever you turn on the device. The pre-warning message is a reminder that you shall calibrate the device. If the total test number reaches 10,000 times and no calibration has been performed so far, then the device is locked, and no more tests can be performed. Contact your local distributor or the ACE Instruments Service Center (see www.alkomat.net).

Display After the Test

After the test result has been displayed for 4 seconds, „Retest“ and „M-Graph“ are also shown on the display.

Now you have 3 possibilities:

1. Switch off the device or wait until it is switched off automatically.

2. Choose RETEST - Briefly press the power button to perform a new test.

3. Choose M-GRAPH - Briefly press the menu button to view the last 10 test results as a graph. The graph shows whether and how many of the last 10 test results were above the alarm limit set in the menu.

ACE Instruments Recommends

■ Always use a new mouthpiece for each person and test that is conducted. ACE Instruments assumes no liability for any damages that may arise when several people use the same mouthpiece for multiple tests.
■ Only use the provided individually packaged hygienic mouthpieces (more are available at www.alkomat.net). During each test the breathalyzer's internal and external parts come in contact with human secretion (saliva, blood, sweat, etc.)!
Use safety gloves when pulling out a mouthpiece used by another person! You can buy appropriate gloves at ACE Technik (www.ace-technik.de).

IMPORTANT NOTICE

■ WHEN YOU HAVE EATEN, DRUNK ALCOHOL OR, SMOKED A CIGARETTE, WAIT AT LEAST 15 MINUTES BEFORE STARTING THE MEASUREMENT. ANY TEST CONDUCTED PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE RECOMMENDED WAITING PERIOD WILL RESULT IN INACCURATE RESULTS.
■ IF THE TEST RESULT IS BELOW 0.070‰ (PER MILL) OR 0.035 mg/L (UK setting) OR 0.007% BAC (US setting) THEN THE DEVICE SHOWS 0.00 (‰ OR mg/L OR % BAC – depending on the setting) ON THE DISPLAY. THIS HAPPENS BECAUSE AT A LOW RANGE OF ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION IT IS POSSIBLE TO MEASURE OTHER MATERIALS IN YOUR MOUTH.
This breathalyzer is a high quality and sensitive measurement device. To maintain the accuracy of the fuel cell sensor, it should regularly be used. If the device is not used for an extended period, the sensor can dry out. ACE Instruments recommends using the breathalyzer at least 2 times per month (even if you have not been drinking alcohol).
Due to changes in the product, the procedures stated can change. This can take place without prior notice or adaptation of the operating manual and is no cause for complaint, return or price reduction. The user is responsible for recognizing discrepancies between the operating manual and the actual handling of the breathalyzer and must react accordingly.

Only Use Original ACE Instruments Mouthpieces
