May 19, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Wheat Ridge, CO, May 19, 2006 –- Lifeloc Technologies (www.lifeloc.com/), a leading manufacturer and provider of Portable Breath Alcohol Testers (PBT) and Evidential Breath Testers (EBT), has introduced a new groundbreaking evidential alcohol breathalyzer testing device, the Phoenix 6.0™. In support of current Government regulations as well as the increasing frequency of voluntary implementation of alcohol testing in the workplace, the Phoenix 6.0 utilizes modern design and technology to provide employers reliability, precision, and ease-of-use heretofore unavailable in evidential instruments of this kind.

The new Phoenix 6.0 device is durable and highly intuitive, with fast, digital operation based on patented software design. Its simplistic electronic calibration, numerous safeguards and self-diagnostics even incorporate a built-in barometric pressure sensor, all of which help eliminate factors that might render breath alcohol detector results invalid. With built-in EasyMode™ program software the operator is guided through the testing sequence with instructions displayed on a large, bright, LCD screen displaying helpful text messages, graphic icons, and precise test results.

The U.S. Department of Transportation mandates that test results must be printed, recorded and acknowledged by the individual. The Phoenix 6.0 facilitates this evidential alcohol breathalyzer testing, incorporating a 250-test internal memory, wireless connection, and a new, patented PermAffix™ printing and labeling system. This system produces tamper-evident, self-adhesive labels perfectly fitted for D.O.T. forms - allowing convenient and legible documentation of breath alcohol detector results in just seconds.

In further support of the government regulated testing requirements, Lifeloc manages a comprehensive, nationwide support program providing convenient operator training and certification, as well as helpful consultation services. This training helps ensure breath alcohol detector results are valid, vastly reducing chances for operator error or confusion.
