The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is the
newest, patented, cutting edge, breakthrough unit in
Q3's handheld AlcoHAWK® Series line of breath
alcohol testers. It incorporates our PT Core™
fuel-cell sensor, which is not subject to interference
from acetone and offers enhanced linear accuracy over
traditional semi-conductor sensors. The simple
menu-driven operation allows you to quickly and
accurately screen for the presence of alcohol up to
0.400% BAC. The AlcoHAWK® PT500 also features
a large, easy-to-read back-lit LCD display.
The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is the
ideal unit for law enforcement roadside screening,
corrections, probation officers, substance abuse
clinics, boating, military, and many other areas of
professional testing in which fuel-cell accuracy and
reliability is required.
The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is a
DOT / NHTSA Conforming Breath Alcohol Screener. Has
obtained FDA 510K Premarket Clearance.

PT Core™ Fuel-cell Sensor
Technology: The PT Core™ sensor is an
exciting new technology available in the AlcoHAWK®
PT models. This new technology incorporates an
electro-chemical fuel-cell detection system. PT
Core™ Technology offers many advantages over
semi-conductor based technologies such as:
- Better linear accuracy away
from the point of calibration
- Not subject to interference from
ketones
- The waste products of fat burning. When your
blood glucose gets too high, your body breaks
down its own fat and protein for energy instead
of glucose. When fat is used, ketones appear in
your urine and blood. If the amount of ketones
gets high enough in the blood they can be
detected on the breath and cause false positives
with semi-conductor sensors.ketones
which can be seen in conditions such as diabetes
or people on fad diets
- Improved sensor life - The
PT Core™ sensor is designed to be robust
and last for thousands of tests in fields such
as Law Enforcement

Easy-to-Read LCD Display: The
AlcoHAWK® PT500 offers a large, easy-to-read LCD display
to make the unit the most informative and understandable AlcoHAWK®
Series product on the market.
Adjustable Blowing Time (Professional Kit
Only): The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is the first AlcoHAWK®
that allows you to control the blowing time. The blowing time may be
adjusted for testing subjects with poor lung capacity, such as a
smoker, or for testing subjects with a large lung capacity, such as
a high-endurance runner. This makes the AlcoHAWK® PT500
ideal for accurate and reliable testing of a variety of individuals.
The AlcoHAWK® PT500's blowing time is adjustable from 3
to 8 seconds.
Temperature Display: The AlcoHAWK®
PT500 constantly displays the ambient temperature during use to help
you operate the unit during its optimal temperature range of 50° -
104° F (10° - 40° C).
Warning Level Indicator: The
AlcoHAWK® PT500 features an audible and visual warning
when a subject's BAC surpasses the adjustable BAC alarm point.
Pressure Scan Sensor: Ensures that
the user blows with enough force to start a test and also ensures
that they continue to blow through the unit throughout the entire
test.
Automatic Pump: Simple one button
sampling with no manual activation of pump required.
Test Counter: Keep track of the
number of tests run on the unit. |

Alarm Point: The unit will read
“High” if the BAC reading exceeds the alarm point setting. The
default setting is 0.020% BAC. You can change the alarm point from
between 0.020%-0.080% BAC.
Temperature Scale: This option
allows you to switch between Celsius (C) and Fahrenheit (F) for the
temperature display. The default setting is Fahrenheit (F).
Blowing Time (Professional Kit Only):
You can adjust the blowing time from 3 to 8 seconds. The default
setting is 5 seconds. Five seconds is the standard time to obtain a
proper sample.
Convert Units: Use this option to
change the unit of alcohol concentration shown for tests. You
can choose between %BAC (U.S.A), g/L, or ‰BAC. The default setting
is %BAC (U.S.A), the U.S.A standard.
Test Counter: Use this option to
keep track of the number of tests run since the counter was last
reset. |
