Measuring range
Breath alcohol
concentration
0.00 to 2.5 mg/L
0 to 2500 µg/L
0.000 to 0.500 g/210L
0 to 250 µg/100mL
0 to 250 µg%
(Ethanol mass per breath volume at
34 °C and 1013 hPa.)
Blood alcohol
concentration

0 to 500 mg%
0.00 to 5.00 mg/mL
(Ethanol mass per blood volume resp.
mass at 20
o
C and 1013 hPa.
By giving this data a conversion factor
of 2100 between breath and blood
alcohol concentrations is used.)
Display range
The range of indication and the measuring range are identical.
If the result is exceeding the measuring range the display will show
three arrows "↑ ↑" as overflow indication.
Ambient conditions
For operation –5 to +50 °C (23 to 122
o
F)
10 to 100 % r.h.
(non condensing)
600 to 1400 hPa
For storage –40 to +65 °C (–40 to 149
o
F)
Sample conditions
minimal blowing time selectable
2 s default
minimal volume selectable
1.2 L default
Measurement accuracy
Reproducibility with an ethanol standard
up to 0.50 mg/L 0.008 mg/L
≥ 0.50 mg/L 1.7 % of measurement volume
the higher volume is valid
up to 1.00 ‰ 0.017 ‰
≥ 1.00 ‰ 1.7 % of measurement volume
the higher volume is valid
Values for other measuring units can be calculated according to
table on page 34.
Sensitivity drift typically 0.6 % of meas. value/month
