Breathalysers
The following breathalysers are both certified to AS3547 as outlined in the Rail Safety (Drug and Alcohol Testing) Regulation 2008. However we recommend the Alcosense Precision Breathalyser for the Rail Industry as this is closer to the requirements.

Alcosense Precision Breathalyser 
The Alcosense Precision Breathalyser is a fuel cell type breathalyser which means accuracy to 3 decimal places. The breathalyser requires calibration annually or approximately 1000 uses. This breathalyser requires mouth pieces to complete testing. This light, industrial grade, simple to use breathalyser is ideal for workplaces where additional accuracy is required. Click here for more information or to purchase.
