Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our ACE AL7000 breathalyzer! It measures the alcohol concentration in human breath
using a semiconductor sensor and calculates the blood alcohol content. The test results are very reliable and
have a tolerance of +/- 0.100‰ (per mill = g/L) with reference to 0.500‰ at 25°C ambient temperature.
The measurement results are displayed as a 4-digit number with 3 decimals and are interpretable 1: 1
(for example the display shows the value 0.36 = 0.36 per mill).
The sensor inside the device can be calibrated. To maintain the measurement accuracy of this device and
the sensor warranty, it should be calibrated regularly. For a calibration service, you can send the device to the
service address specified at www.alkomat.net.
The device must only be used pursuant to the instructions mentioned in this manual. All measured values
determined by this breathalyzer are only a guide and not legally binding. Breath tests should be carried out
using clip-on mouthpieces (one new mouthpiece should be used per test for reasons of hygiene and to avoid
falsified readings).
Note to country-specific Measurement Units
Customers in the EU receive the breathalyzer with ‰ (per mill) as default setting, in the UK the default setting
is mg/L, and in the USA, it is % BAC. In the chapter „Technical data,“ you will find information about the accuracy
concerning the different measurement units. Please check the website of the Department of Transportation, the
website of the Ministry of Transport, or automotive clubs to become informed about the current alcohol limits
in your country.
