Description

2.2 Intended use

The Dräger Alcotest®55101is used to quickly measure the alcohol

concentration in a person's breath. The device is suitable for portable

and battery-powered operation.

2.3 Device symbols and displays

3.1 Prerequisites

The ambient air must be free from alcohol and solvent vapours

(disinfectants).

Maintain an adequate distance from mobile telephone antennas

and transmitter sites so as not to impair the function of the device.

Observe a waiting period of at least 15 minutes after the last oral

alcohol intake! 

Residual alcohol in the mouth can distort the measurement. Even

aromatic beverages (e.g. fruit juice), alcoholic mouth sprays,

medical juices and drops, and belching and vomiting may result in

false data. Also observe a waiting period of at least 15 minutes in

these cases. Rinsing the mouth with water or non-alcoholic drinks

does not replace the waiting time!

The test person should breathe regularly and calmly before

the sample is taken. Avoid breathing in and out quickly through

the mouth.

The test person must be capable of exhaling the minimum breath

volume of 1.2 l (works setting). For the test, the breath flow must

fall within a certain minimum exhalation time (factory setting

2 seconds). The volume and the time can be changed via

themenu, if required.

3.2 Preparations for Use

The device is delivered already calibrated from the factory.

If the calibration date was more than 6 months previously: Calibrate the

device or have it calibrated by DrägerService.

The date of the last calibration can be viewed in the Quick Menu

3.2.1 Inserting or replacing the batteries / rechargeable batteries

CAUTION

Explosion hazard!

Do not throw used batteries/rechargeable batteries into a fire

or open them by force. Do not recharge alkaline batteries.

3.3 Automatic Measurements

With automatic measurement, the device takes the sample

automatically as soon as the test subject has given given a breath

sample that is sufficient into the mouthpiece of the device and the end

of the breath sample has been recognised by the device.

To carry out an automatic measurement:

1. Insert a new mouthpiece into the holder.

(see section 3.2.4 on page 9).

2. Switch on the device (see section 3.2.5

on page 9).

After 2 seconds the display shows:

Self Test.

After about 6 seconds, READY will

appear on the display and a short

acoustic signal will sound. At the same

time the current test number is displayed. 

The light flashes green.

The device is ready to use.

3. Request the test subject to blow into the mouthpiece evenly and

without interruption. An adequate flow of breath is confirmed by a

continuous tone and the green light.

While the breath sample is being given,

Blow appears on the display.

When the breath sample has been given,

the green light goes out, the continuous

tone will stop and a short clicking sound

can be heard.

On the display, Analyzing appears.

The test result will appear on the display

after 5 to 25 seconds (depending on the

the device temperature and the

measured concentration).

The measurement result is displayed

with the corresponding unit. The units are

factory-set to mg/L (milligrams of ethanol

per litre of breath).

CAUTION

Do not allow any high alcohol concentrations on the sensor,

e.g., by rinsing the mouth with a high proof alcohol shortly

before the measurement, as this will shorten the service life

of the sensor. Observe a waiting period of at least 15 minutes

after the last oral intake of alcohol!

NOTICE

A new mouthpiece must be inserted for each test subject.
