There are several things to consider when buying a breathalyser.

Accuracy

Breathalysers that don't use mouth pieces are not as accurate as breathalysers which do.

Cheaper, open aperture 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.

Calibration

All digital breathalysers will need calibrating every 300-700 tests (average 6-9 months) Modern units have user changeable pre-calibrated sensors, avoiding the need to send the complete unit back for calibration service.

In our opinion this is a major advantage to you the customer. Models such as the DA5000, DA7000, AL6000 and Alcomate Phoenix all offer this feature and will also tell the user when the sensor needs replacing. Auto-diagnostics ensure the sensor is working, calibrated and is giving accurate readings.

Breathalyser Sensors

Look for semicon or Prism sensors in the latest models. Both sensors offer a major improvement in reliability and alcohol selectivity over older KOIST sensor models.
