  9. Alco Sensor FST

  10. Alco-Sensor Field Sobriety Test

  11. Passive and Active Sampling Underage testing Roadside Sniff Drinks

  12. Simple to Use Mount Mouthpiece Press ON Button Temperature Display Battery Indicator Instruct Subject to Provide Breath Sample Instrument Samples Deep Lung Air Note Subject’s Result

  13. Instrument Offers Automatic Sampling Alco-Sensor FST will automatically sample Final result is displayed

  14. Instrument Offers Old Way Breath flow is directed towards Operator

  15. New Way- Breath is now diverted away from Operator New Way

  16. Roadside Safety Operator can view oncoming traffic on roadway to ensure the safety of the Subject and the Officer conducting the test. No other instrument offers this!

  17. Officer Safety Cont- Field Safety Right-handed use OR Left-handed use Weapon hand can be FREE

  18. Versatile Drink Sniffer Drink Sniffer is easy to snap into place Test a beverage for the presence of alcohol Drink Sniffer attached to ASFST

  19. Versatile Cont- Passive Testing Reusable Passive Cup Attach Passive Cup Unit is in Passive Mode with PAS Flashing

  20. Versatile-Cont Passive Testing Subject blows at the cup. An automatic sample will be collected for analysis. An ‘nEg’ result indicates alcohol content was negligible. A ‘PoS’ result indicates the presence of alcohol. or

  21. Versatile-Cont Passive Testing If ‘PoS’ is displayed, a recommendation would be to take a direct sample test (with mouthpiece attached). This will validate a positive or negative passive result.

  25. RBT IV EVIDENTIAL BREATH TESTER

  26. Roadside Breath Tester:RBT IV • The RBTIV consists of an Alco Sensor IV and a programmed microprocessor / printer that stores test information for up to 1,000 tests and produces an automatic hard copy of the test results

  27. One-Way Mouthpiece • Used as the ON/OFF • Individually Wrapped • Ball Vs Flapper • Insert only One-Way • Eliminate Suck-Back

  28. RBT IV COMPONENTS • Alco-Sensor IV Evidential Breath Testing Device • Lightweight Pelican™ carrying case • 12-volt rechargeable battery with AC battery charger • 12-volt DC adapter available for powering from car battery

  29. RBT IV FEATURESOperating Instructions Display • LCD display shows date and time when device is powered on • Provides step-by-step commands to guide operator through test procedure • Next command will not appear until operator has successfully completed previous step

  30. RBT IVStandard Test Sequence • START • Enter ID number • Verify ID number correct • Insert mouthpiece • Temperature • Air blank (sampling system pulls in 1cc of ambient air) • SET • Subject provides sample (ASIV is flashing “RBT”) • SET • Remove mouthpiece

  31.

  32. Maintenance & Troubleshooting • Monthly Accuracy Checks • Wet Bath or Dry Gas • Alkaline Battery (ASIV only) • Heavy duty 9 volt alkaline battery only • Measure as high as 8.5 to 9.9 v • “BAT” displays @ 6.6 volts • 12 V Rechargeable Battery • Shelf Life approx 3 years • Fully charged battery powers approximately 6 hours • LOW BATTERY displays when charging is necessary

  33. Breath Alcohol Instrument • The task of a well designed breath alcohol instrument is to capture a fixed volume sample of deep lung breath and determine how much alcohol is in it.

  34. Breath Alcohol Instrument • The Well Designed Instrument • should have proven accuracy and reliability. • should not respond to any substances other than alcohol. • should obtain a deep lung sample and reject a shallow breath sample, which would read low. • should avoid reading “mouth” or “residual” alcohol from a recent drink. • Should have a Quality Assurance Program

  35. Most frequently asked questions • What is the legal limit in Trinidad & Tobago? Is this the same as the US limit? • How many drinks does it take to be over 35 ug/100ml? • What is one drink? • What do you calibrate the breathalyzer with? Ethanol in Nitrogen • Could I blow a positive reading after drinking the night before? Yes, depending on the amount of alcohol consumed • Can mouthwash give a positive reading? YES, but will not last for more than 15 mins-mouth alcohol • Can I lower the reading by putting a penny in my mouth? Chewing a brown paper bag? Sucking a mint? NO • Can cooking food with alcohol cause a positive test? NO

  36. Breath Alcohol Concentration * Approximate Equivalent

  37. Under Trinidad Law, Alcohol Concentration can be expressed in two ways The Blood Alcohol is expressed as: grams of alcohol per 100 ml blood The Breath Alcohol is expressed as: micrograms of alcohol per 100 ml of breath (Trinidad) 35ug/100ml (35ug= .076%)

  38. ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES DEFINITION OF ONE (1) DRINK All containing the same amount of alcohol. 12 OZ (350ml) BEER 6 OZ (177ml) WINE 1.5 OZ (44ml) 80 PROOF LIQUOR = = A similar number of drinks consumed by different size people will create different BACs, because of their different amounts of body fluid.

  39. Training Support and Set Up- the way forward • Refresher training for persons already trained and certified as Breath Alcohol Instructors • Work with Instructors to set up training modules to provide Breath Alcohol Technician (BAT) Training, CBT • Help set up calibration stations-log books, calibration gas • Support from ROSE Personnel
