VERIFICATION AND CALIBRATION

Calibration of the AlcoHAWK
PT500 occurs during manufacturing using
®
advanced alcohol simulation equipment. The manufacturer passing
known alcohol concentrations through the sensor to set baseline values
for testing. During testing, the unit compares users' breath samples
to these baseline values. If the verification determines that the BAC is
not consistent with actual BAC levels, a technician calibrates the unit.
The accuracy of breath alcohol testers can fluctuate after six to twelve
months, depending on frequency of use and operating conditions.
If the unit is providing inconsistent results, unusually high or low read-
ings, or no readings at all, a professional needs to recalibrate the unit.
A technician should recalibrate this unit at least every six to twelve
months. Monthly calibrations may be required if the unit is used
daily.
For recalibration or support, please visit www.q3i.com or call 888-399-
1687. During recalibration, a technician will perform a diagnostic check
on the unit and reset the baseline sensor values.
