Introduction:

The RBT IV consists of an Alco-Sensor® IV and a programmed Microprocessor Printer which
prompts the step-by-step test sequence, prints a hard copy of the result and stores test information to memory.

Unique Features:

The standard RBT IV will request the entry of subject and/or operator information prior to performing a test and then will produce a hard copy result documenting the collected data along with pertinent test result information. Specific test protocols are available, off the shelf, including DOT, NRC and Law Enforcement protocols. Custom protocols in a variety of languages can also be designed upon request with three or four digit results.

Getting Started in Workplace Testing

Approvals	NHTSA	Listed on the Conforming Products List for Evidential Breath Measurement Devices.

Analytical System	Electrochemical Sensor (Fuel Cell)	Select sensor, manufactured to Intoximeters exacting specifications for accuracy, repeatability and long life.

Measurement Range	0.000 to 0.400 g/210L	The off the shelf instrument is designed to offer a range of results that our customers commonly encounter when performing breath alcohol testing. Custom ranges, and results reported in a most units of measure are available upon request.

Accuracy and Precision	Highly accurate and precise evidential grade results	Intoximeters fuel cell based instruments set the industry standard for accuracy and precision. These precise and linear devices offer consistent output that results in evidentiary grade analysis.

Sensor Selectivity	Highly specific for alcohol	Fuel Cell sensors are sought after for their specificity to alcohol.

Sampling Method	Flow, Volume, Breath Drop	Instruments running the standard software require a consistent flow, a minimum volume and then a drop in flow before sampling a deep lung breath. Alternate sample capture algorithms are available in customized programs.

Testing Environment	Instrument Temperature	The temperature of the instrument must be at, or between, 10 and 40 degrees C.
	Ambient Temperature	As long as the instrument is at temperature, the instrument can be used at, or between, ambient temperatures of -20 to 70 degrees C.
	Humidity	10% to 100% relative humidity (The instrument is not designed to be used under water.)
	Ambient Pressure	600 mbar to 1400 mbar; 450 mmHg [0 °C] to 1050 in mmHg [0 °C]

Mouthpiece	Style	One-way check valve
	Installation	Insert to power unit ON

Data Input	Keypad	Custom touchpad with numeric keyboard and custom function keys

Visual Output	Instrument Display	Red, four character LED
	Keypad Display	Two line, 20 character backlit green LCD display

Audio Output	Beeper	Audible tone to support displayed messaging system

Data Output	Printer	Internal impact printer
	Serial	With optional serial adapter, the printer can download stored test data serially and, with proper software, can communicate via serial modem

Data Storage	Number of Tests (AS IV)	Last test
	Number of Tests (RBT IV)	Up to 1,000 tests depending upon on-board memory type

Power Options	(AS IV) Disposable Battery	Single 9V alkaline battery
	(AS IV) Rechargeable Battery	9V rechargeable battery - Optional
	(RBT IV) Printer Battery	12V rechargeable battery (comes with charger)
	(RBT IV) 12V Power Source	Optional 12V cigarette adapter

Case Construction	(AS IV) Metal flake impregnated ABS	Rugged casing protects instrument and internal components.
	(RBT IV) ABS Plastic Carrying Case	The instrument is offered with a black Pelican 1400 waterproof hard carrying case that holds both the AS IV and the RBT IV
	(RBT IV) Nylon Carrying Case	Optionally, the instrument can be purchased in a light weight blue nylon carrying case which allows storage of additional dry gas calibration equipment

Size, Shape and Weight	Dimensions	13.5” x 12” x 6”
	Weight	12 lbs (5,443 grams)

Measurement Types	Automatic Direct Breath	Auto sampling of subjects' deep lung breath samples
	Manual Direct Breath	Manual sampling option for subjects who cannot meet the minimum flow and volume requirements of the instrument.

Security	Password	Optional password protection is available

Options	CEM - Cell Enhancement Module	For high volume or cold temperature testing, the CEM provides a heated system that forces purge air through the AS IV when the instrument is not in use. This speeds test cycle times.
