(INDEPENDENCE, Iowa – July 14, 2008) – Q3 Innovations, LLC is delighted to announce the release of their AlcoHAWK® PT Series breathalyzers and wireless thermal printer. The PT Series utilizes advanced PT Core™ Fuel-Cell Technology. The PT Core™ sensor is robust and lasts for thousands of tests making it suitable for professional testing applications. This advanced sensor technology eliminates false positives and offers greater accuracy and sensitivity than traditional semi-conductor breath alcohol testers, which is important when conducting professional alcohol screening. Breathalyzers using traditional semi-conductor sensors have a higher incidence of false positives from interfering substances such as ketones which can be seen in conditions such as diabetes or people on fad diets.
“We are very excited to offer some of the most economical fuel-cell sensor breath alcohol testers in the world. We take pride in our products and enjoy continuously developing and offering more advanced options for our customers. With the release of the AlcoHAWK® PT Series, the AlcoHAWK® Series now covers the entire spectrum from low cost semi-conductor screeners to professional fuel-cell screeners”, said Brian Eddy, CEO.
The AlcoHAWK® PT Series includes a range of models from the most economical PT400 and PT500 units to the most advanced AlcoHAWK® PT750 unit. The AlcoHAWK® PT500 is available in the United States and has a pressure sensor to ensure the user blows with enough force to start a test and that they continue to blow through the unit throughout the entire test. The AlcoHAWK® PT500P has all the features of the PT500, plus wireless printing capabilities. The AlcoHAWK® PT750 has the most features of the fuel-cell series with passive and active testing, password protection, wireless printing, a rechargeable lithium battery and a USB port to transfer stored test results to a PC. The AlcoHAWK® PT Series units are ideal for professional breath alcohol testing offering wireless printing capabilities with the PT500P and PT750 models.
