AlcoSense Precision
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
Application
- 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.

Fuel Cell breathalyser is particularly sensitive to alcohol, this fuel cell will not be responsive to acetone or any other breath substances
At the request of the Technical Services Laboratory Traffic Alcohol Section (Victorian Police Force) we sent an AlcoSense Precision over to them for testing. This was not a routine check of our products, rather to ensure that the Police are aware of what is happening in the market. For this reason it was tested in house at the lab and returned great results or durability and accuracy. Of course the Police Force cannot endorse a product, but you won’t find many other companies who can make such a claim about their product. Andatech is all about great quality, and trustworthy instruments, having this unit tested further even after the rigours of Australian Standards indicates we are still setting the bar higher and higher it a great product to have on the market.
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.
