Responsibilities - CORRECT ANSWER - Analyze breath samples for suitable samples
Record breath test data
Evaluate subject behaviour- assess symptoms of intoxication, compare level to observations
Check and calibrate ASDS
Provide evidence in court
Communicate court decisions and breath program info
Contribute to quality assurance of the program
BAC displayed as - CORRECT ANSWER - Milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of
blood. mg/mL
Intoxilyzer 8000c manufacturer - CORRECT ANSWER - CMI inc in Kentucky
Simulator purpose - CORRECT ANSWER - Conduct check of calibration of intoxilyzer to
ensure calibrated properly and operating properly
How simulator works - CORRECT ANSWER - Comprised of electronics and jar.
Simulator Vapor's are provided to instrument by outlet port. Recirculated back to simulator inlet
following analysis by instrument
, Temp of alcohol standard solution - CORRECT ANSWER - 34 +/- 0.2 Celsius
33.8-34.2
Henry's law - CORRECT ANSWER - Expected concentration of alcohol in the vapours of
a simulator is dependent on concentration of alcohol in the solution for a given temperature
Temp is key for cal check
Solution - CORRECT ANSWER - 500 ml
Expiry 2-3 years from production
1.21 +/- 0.03 mg of ethanol in each millilitre of solution
CFS gives certificate of analyst
Tones - CORRECT ANSWER - Single - change in state such as ready to standby
Continuous - subject meets flow rate .15 L/second
High low - error
IR theory - CORRECT ANSWER - Intoxilyzer uses IR light to detect presence of alcohol.
When exposed to IR light molecules absorb varying degrees of specific wavelengths within the
full IR spectrum depending on their structure
Individual provides breath sample into intoxilyzer, if alcohol is present it will absorb specific
wavelengths of IR light, a decrease in intensity of IR light reaches the detector
The lower the intensity of IR light reaching detector, the more alcohol molecules in breath
passing through sample chamber
