Breathalyser FAQs

What alcohol testing technology does Andatech use?

Andatech uses industrial grade advanced platinum fuel cell technology to power our
alcohol breath testers, leading to fast and accurate readings of your BAC results at all times.

Is a breathalyser accurate?

Breathalysers are the easiest and most accurate way to estimate a person’s intoxication level by measuring the concentration of alcohol found in an individual’s breath sample.

How does a breathalyser work?

Breathalysers work by analysing a breath sample blown into the device and calculating the concentration of alcohol levels that is found within the breath sample or breath alcohol concentration (BrAC).

A breathalyser or alcohol breath tester does this either by using semiconductor or fuel cell technology.

Note: All Andatech breath testers are fuel cell breathalysers, designed to deliver accurate readings of your breath alcohol concentration.

What are alcohol testing best practices?

  • Ensure test subject has not consumed food or drink for 15 to 20 minutes before the test
  • Use a new mouthpiece for every new test subject
  • Always store the alcohol breath tester according to Andatech storage instructions and guidelines
  • Send your device for calibration every 6 months to ensure optimal results and accuracy at all times.

Is there a way to save breath alcohol data of team members?

Most Andatech portable workplace breath testers have an internal memory capacity of at least 100 tests (can be increased with an SD card).

Selected Andatech alcohol breath testers are compatible with the Andalink data management system to save tests and view them in an easy-to-read chart.

Do alcohol breath testers also detect drugs?

Andatech alcohol breath testers do not detect drugs and can only detect specific alcohol concentration in one’s breath.

Drug test kits from Andatech, however, are able to detect drugs and alcohol with cut-off levels complying with Australian Standard guidelines.

Are wall-mounted units better than personal breath testers?

Wall-mounted alcohol breath testers have features that are unique to them and the same can be said about portable breathalysers.

Wall-mounted units from Andatech have advanced features including door access
control, temperature screening and a link to the Andalink data management system.

Knowing your BAC in Australia

Knowing your BAC or breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) is essential for safe, responsible choices on the road, at work, or in social situations.

In Australia, BAC limits vary: 0.00% for learners, probationary drivers, and commercial operators and 0.05% for full-licence holders.

Using a reliable alcohol breath tester helps individuals monitor your alcohol consumption, enabling responsible decisions. Andatech and AlcoSense breath alcohol testers deliver fast, accurate readings, helping build safer communities by encouraging informed and compliant choices.

How to use an Andatech breathalyser

Using an Andatech alcohol breath tester is simple and quick, giving you reliable blood alcohol readings in just a few steps. Start by turning on the device and waiting for the screen prompt. When ready, blow into the mouthpiece steadily until the device beeps, signalling completion. Within seconds, your accurate BAC result appears on the screen.

These compact, easy-to-use devices prioritise personal safety, making them ideal for responsible drinking practices anywhere in Australia. Below is an illustration of how to conduct a standard alcohol breath test.

How to use a breathalyser example

1. Insert a mouthpiece into the mouthpiece slot.

2. Once the device  has warmed up, blow into the mouthpiece until a click/beep sounds.

3. Your BAC/BrAC reading will be displayed within seconds.

4. Selected models come with a thermal printer that prints out results for documentation purposes.

NOTE: Every model has different instructions on how to use the device. Please refer to the individual user manuals for best practice

Why Andatech uses fuel cell sensors

Andatech alcohol breath testers use fuel cell sensors for superior accuracy, reliability, and stable blood alcohol readings over time.

Unlike semiconductor sensors, fuel cell technology offers precise readings, fewer false positives, and is resistant to temperature changes.

This advanced technology powers our high-quality personal and workplace breath alcohol testers, delivering trusted results to users across Australia.

Choosing fuel cell sensors aligns with Andatech’s commitment to providing dependable alcohol testing solutions to promote responsible alcohol consumption around the clock.

Why workplace alcohol testing is important

Workplace alcohol testing is vital for maintaining safety, productivity, and compliance. Alcohol impairment increases the risk of accidents, especially in high-risk industries like construction, mining, and transportation.

By regularly testing for alcohol, companies can identify potential risks early and create a safer work environment.

Alcohol testing also promotes a culture of responsible drinking, helps deter substance misuse, and supports overall employee health. Andatech designs workplace alcohol breath testers to deliver accurate, reliable testing, helping businesses prioritise safety and well-being with ease.

Calibrating your Andatech breathalyser

To keep your Andatech device delivering precise BAC results, regular breathalyser calibration is essential. Calibrate every six months to adjust the sensor and maintain accuracy. Regular calibration will also extend your unit’s standard warranty to a lifetime guarantee under the Andatech Guarantee.

You can arrange calibration directly with Andatech or join a breathalyser calibration plan for convenient service reminders and priority handling, ensuring your device stays in top condition.

With a calibration plan, you'll get ongoing support, extending your device's lifespan and keeping it at peak performance for dependable results.
