How chemical breathalyzers work

THE chemical breathalyzers work thanks to reagents that react to the presence of alcohol in the exhaled air. Simply blow into the balloon or directly into the tube after checking its expiry date, 2 years from the date of production. Once the balloon is inflated or until the white pellet is visible, the user must break the sealed ends of the analysis tube, or exert pressure on these same ends depending on the kits used.

Using the Turdus Breathalyzer in 3 Steps


Heat & Punch Hold the breathalyzer in your hands for 30 seconds. Activate the test by pressing the 2 tips and perforating the aluminum membrane.	Blow Aim the breathalyzer until you see the red dot. Inhale deeply and then exhale slowly in one go until the tablet turns white.	Reading the result Wait until the pill turns red again. If the reagent remains yellow: rate between 0.0 and 0.5g/l. If the reagent turns green: rate greater than or equal to 0.5g/l. Yellow: DRIVING ALLOWED. Green: DRIVING NOT AUTHORIZED.

Reminder

Single-use breathalyzer detecting blood and exhaled air alcohol levels

Please note that...

Before using a breathalyzer disposable , you should know that consuming 1 additional glass of alcohol causes an increase in blood alcohol level of approximately 0.25 g/L. However, the assimilation of alcohol molecules by the body can be slow or fast depending on physical parameters. The increase in blood alcohol level continues until approximately 60 minutes after consuming the last glass.

Most of the time, the effects of alcohol molecules have not really dissipated despite popular belief: having a breathalyzer will prevent irreparable damage.

Why this regulation?

The regulations for the alcohol level accepted was voluntarily arranged for young drivers to follow up on the measure of July 1, 2015: they are the leading cause of death and disability for 18-25 year olds and in ¼ of collisions the alcohol level is excessive.
