What
is a "Pre-Calibrated Replaceable Alcohol Sensor Module"?
AK
Solutions is the first breathalyzer company to introduce pre-calibrated
replaceable modules (patent-pending) to the market. One of the main
problems with using breathalyzers in critical applications is that the
alcohol sensor, no matter what type, requires periodic re-calibration.
Unfortunately, the re-calibration process requires that the breathalyzer
be physically mailed or taken to a professional service center, at which
point the device must be evaluated and proper steps must be taken for
calibration with an expensive simulator system. The process is costly
for both consumer and service center, and the delay of processing and
shipping back-and-forth can be quite a loss. The Pre-Calibrated
Replaceable Alcohol Sensor Module can eliminate the delays
and complications of re-calibration by allowing you to simply "snap
out" an old module and "snap in" a new module.
Introducing
PRISM Sensor Technology
With
the new AlcoMate
Premium, AK Solutions has created the most advanced,
accurate and convenient breath testing system available. PRISM Technology
provides by far the highest quality replaceable sensor module components
using the most rigorous standards of construction, durability and accuracy.
The method of exchanging sensor modules is also easier than ever with
the Easy-Replace Sensor Panel on the back of the breathalyzer.
Now sensor replacement is faster than ever, and literally takes just
a few seconds! PRISM Technology is only available with the AlcoMate
Premium.
Prepare
your AlcoMate Prestige. |
Use
a flat, sharp tool to carefully open the top cover. |
Lift
the breath tube to access the sensor module. |
Remove
the breath tube. It should remove easily. |
Carefully
raise the sensor module from the body. Do NOT detach
the cable from the body. |
Remove
the cable from the slot underneath the sensor module.
|
Prepare
a new pre-calibrated sensor module. |
Insert
the cable into the new sensor. Make sure the blue
strip is toward the sensor, as shown. |
Replace
the sensor module into its original position.
|
Re-attach
the breath tube directly on to the sensor. Make sure
the front opening is aligned. |
Re-attach
the cover on to the top of the body. It should snap
in fairly easily. |
Ready
for Testing! |
Prepare
your AlcoMate Plus. Make sure it is powered off. |
Remove
the battery cover. |
Remove
the batteries. |
Using
