Overview
The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is a breath alcohol tester designed to test for
the presence of alcohol in the breath. This product estimates blood
alcohol concentration (BAC) in seconds. Please read this entire manual
before using this product.
Basics of Breath Alcohol Testing
When a person consumes alcohol, the human body absorbs alcohol into
the bloodstream. The alcohol in the bloodstream then exchanges with
air deep in the lungs. The percent of alcohol in a person's blood (BAC)
is proportional to the percent of alcohol in a person's breath (BrAC).
Breath alcohol testers measure a person's deep-lung air alcohol level
and convert it into BAC.
Effects of Alcohol
Variations among individuals and other factors, such as altitude and air
temperature, affect the degree of intoxication. Some individuals may
become intoxicated at low BAC levels. A low BAC on a breath alcohol
tester does not mean that a person's reaction times can respond to any
emergency encountered. Individuals should not drink alcohol and drive
or use any machinery after consuming alcohol. There is no safe way
to drive under the influence of alcohol. Even one drink can make you
unsafe.
