Take the test before you get behind the wheel and ensure your safety and the safety of others. Learn how to properly use the disposable breathalyzer and why it is an indispensable device in public places, businesses and high-risk environments.

What is the Disposable Breathalyzer?

The disposable breathalyzer is a practical and easy-to-use tool for checking blood alcohol content through analysis of exhaled air. Ideal for prevention and road safety, this device complies with the regulations of the 2010 Highway Code, which requires the availability of breathalyzers in public places.

Each kit includes:

  • A device with chemical reagent.
  • A balloon with a valve mouthpiece for collecting exhaled air.

Why Use the Disposable Breathalyzer?

Knowing one’s blood alcohol level is essential to comply with legal limits and avoid penalties or, worse, traffic accidents. The disposable breathalyzer offers several advantages:

  • Reliability: The chemical reagent changes color if the blood alcohol level exceeds the preset limit.
  • Hygiene: Each device is individually packaged to ensure maximum cleanliness.
  • Ease of use: The procedure is quick and easy, perfect even for first-time users.

Instructions for Proper Use

For accurate results, perform the test at least 20 minutes after consuming the last alcoholic beverage. Follow these steps:

  1. Remove the test from the balloon.
    Remove the device from the balloon cavity, taking care not to damage it.
  2. Activate the reagent.
    Press the ends of the device to the dotted lines. This activates the chemical reagent needed for the test.
  3. Inflate the balloon.
    Blow into the balloon with one continuous, uninterrupted exhalation.
  4. Connect the test to the balloon.
    Insert the test cap into the balloon tube, sealing it properly.
  5. Empty the balloon.
    Slowly release all the air from the balloon through the test in about 15 seconds.
  6. Wait and check the result.
    Hold the device in your hand for at least 2 minutes. If the tube heats up, the test has been performed correctly. Immediately check the staining for the result.

Interpretation of Results

The chemical reagent changes color if the detected blood alcohol level exceeds the set limit value. Here’s what to watch for:

  • Green tint: Blood alcohol level below the limit.
