Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our ACE DA-7100 Breathalyzer! It measures the alcohol concentration in human
breath using a fuel cell sensor and calculates the blood alcohol level. The test results are very reliable
and have a tolerance of +/- 0.05‰ (per mill) with reference to 1.00‰ at 25°C ambient temperature. The
measurement results are displayed as a 3-digit number with 2 decimals and are interpretable 1: 1 (for
example the display shows the value 0.36 = 0.36 per mill). With the measu-rement unit % BAC the test
result is displayed with 4 digits and 3 decimals.
The fuel cell sensor inside the Breathalyzer can be calibrated. To maintain the measurement accuracy of this
device and the sensor warranty, it should be calibrated regularely. For a calibration service you can send the
device to the service address specified at www.alkomat.net.
The device must only be used pursuant to the instructions mentioned in this manual. All measured values
determined by this breathalyzer are always a guide only and are not legally binding. Breath tests should be
carried out using clip-on mouthpieces (one new mouthpiece should be used per test for reasons of hygiene
and to avoid falsified readings).
Note to country-specific measurement units
Customers in the EU get the breathalyzer with ‰ (per mill) as default setting, in the UK the default setting
is mg/L and in the USA it is % BAC. In the chapter „Technical data" you will find information about the
accuracy concerning the different measurement units. Please check e.g. the website of the department
of transportation, the website of the Ministry of Transport or of automotive clubs to get informed about the
current alcohol limits in your country.
