Alcohol meter / Breathalyzer

A breathalyzer, also known as an alcohol tester or breathalyzer, is a device used to determine a person's blood alcohol concentration (BAC) by analyzing their breath. These devices are useful in a variety of situations, from driving fitness checks by police officers to self-testing by private individuals. There are both professional and personal breathalyzers, each with different levels of accuracy and price ranges. For private use, there are compact and affordable models that allow users to check their own alcohol levels before making decisions such as driving.

These devices are easy to use and offer a quick and simple way of self-testing. An alcohol refractometer is a special device used to measure the alcohol content in liquids, particularly in wine and beer production. It is based on the principle of light refraction. The refractive index of a liquid changes with its composition, including the alcohol content. By measuring the angle of refraction, the refractometer can determine the alcohol content. This method is particularly useful because it is quick and easy to perform and requires no chemical reagents.

Breathalyzers are also important in companies to ensure safety in the workplace. Particularly in industries where the operation of machinery or vehicles is required, a breathalyzer test before the start of a shift can help to prevent accidents and injuries. Modern breathalyzers often offer additional functions such as memory for measured values, data transfer to computers or smartphones and automatic calibration. These advanced functions enable even more precise and user-friendly handling.

Despite the many benefits, it is important to note that breathalyzers require regular maintenance and calibration to ensure accurate results. Uncalibrated or poorly maintained devices can give incorrect measurement results, which can have serious consequences, especially on the road or in safety-critical work environments. Whether in traffic monitoring, in the workplace or in healthcare, breathalyzers make an important contribution to the safety and well-being of society.
