VERIFICATION AND CALIBRATION
Calibration of the CA2010 occurs during manufacturing using advanced
alcohol simulation equipment. The manufacturer passes known
alcohol concentrations through the sensor to set baseline values for
testing. During testing, the unit compares users’ breath samples to
these baseline values. If the verification determines that the BAC is not
consistent with actual BAC levels, a technician calibrates the unit. The
accuracy of breath alcohol testers can fluctuate over time, depending on
frequency of use and operating conditions.
