Every Andatech breathalyser is built according to the highest standards, designed to last and perform to its best at all times. The quality and integrity of our breathalysers is what gives us the confidence to offer you the longest and best industrial breathalyser warranty in Australia.
This is our promise to maintain a high degree of quality and reliability in all Andatech breathalysers to ensure that they will be able to serve you for a long time. Our aim is to make owning and using an Andatech breathalyser the best experience possible for our customers.
5 Years Guarantee
As long as you calibrate your new Andatech workplace breathalyser every 12 months, we will continue to extend its warranty on a yearly basis for up to 5 years, regardless of the number of tests your breathalyser has done.
Fully Transferable
If you feel like upgrading before the 5 years is up, the balance of your extended warranty remains with the breathalyser for the benefit of its new owner, as long as the conditions of the guarantee are still being met. So you can pass it on or sell the breathalyser with the added value it brings. Plus, if you upgrade to a new Andatech breathalyser, it’ll get the same 5 year guarantee.
Product Models Covered
All Andatech Handheld Workplace Breathalyzers are covered. This includes:
- Andatech Prodigy series
- Andatech Precision series
- Andatech Surety

Calibrations
In order to have repairs made under the Andatech 5 Year Breathalyser Warranty, you must calibrate your breathalyser at least once a year from the date of purchase. Any lapse in yearly calibrations will void the warranty coverage.
You must also retain calibration records to show that the required calibrations have been performed. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that calibration services are carried out as required at the time of service.

However, damage or failures caused by lack of proper maintenance or calibrations are not covered under warranty. In some cases, you may be asked to provide proof of servicing and breathalyser maintenance to verify whether warranty coverage is available for some types of repairs.
For your convenience, calibration reminders and all calibration and service records completed by Andatech are kept in your My Andatech account online. We highly recommend that you register your breathalyser on My Andatech as soon as you receive your breathalyser in order to receive the email reminders and maintain proper records.
If you sell your breathalyser, you should provide your calibration records to the new owner.
If your breathalyser requires repair or service, you must contact Andatech for the repair or warranty claim.
Calibrations and repairs must be done by Andatech’s Authorised Calibration and Service Centres, listed below. This list may be updated periodically.
