ACE X Breathalyzer
Operating Manual
Thank you for purchasing our ACE X Breathalyzer.
It measures the alcohol concentration in human
breath using a digital fuel cell sensor and calculates
the blood alcohol level. The device must only be used
pursuant to the instructions mentioned in this manual.
In case of any questions you may contact the distribu-
tor (ACE) by email to [email protected],

Short description:
The ACE X Breathalyzer is a fuel cell alcohol testing
device, which can be operated by only one button and
shows reliable test results in % BAC (default setting).
The legal limit in the USA is 0.08% BAC (status: Oct
2016). You can interprete the test result this way: e.g.
the display shows 0.03 = 0.030% BAC. Tests can be
done in an active and a passive mode (see chapter
"Conducting the measurement").
To maintain the measurement accuracy of this
breathalyzer it should be calibrated regularely.
For a calibration service you can send the device
to ACE Instruments (see www.ace-instruments.net).
For each breath test a new mouthpiece is required.

This way you receive results that are as accurate
as possible:
a) Wait at least 15 minutes after your last sip of alcohol.
Do not eat, drink or smoke during that time.
b) Do not open the casing.
c) Do not keep the breathalyzer in cold, hot, moist or
badly ventilated places.
d) Keep the breathalyzer out of the reach of children.
e) Conduct three inlet tests after long storage before
conducting the actual alcohol test.
f) Do not drop the breathalyzer.
g) Change the battery if it is depleted. Diminished
battery capacity leads to incorrect test results.
h) Do not conduct tests in loud (sound waves disrupt
the sensor), drafty or poorly ventilated places.
i) After a test result of 0.100% BAC (% BAC = basic
setting) or higher the sensor needs rest time. In this
case wait at least three minutes before the next test.
j) Do not conduct tests in very cold, very hot or an
unventilated, smoky ambience.
k) Store the breathalyzer in a way to avoid penetration
by dust or liquids.
l) Blowing too hard may cause damage to the sensor
as saliva flows into it.
