WHAT IS THE DRÄGER INTERLOCK 7000?
The Interlock 7000 is a reliable and precise alcohol
measuring instrument with integrated vehicle
immobiliser. It prevents drunk-driving. The Interlock 7000
consists of two components: handset and control
unit. The handset measures the alcohol concentration
in the breath of the driver. The control unit releases
or blocks the power supply to the starter relay of the
vehicle, and also records all relevant data. If required
by the statutory Interlock programme, the device can
be additionally equipped with a camera and / or
a GPRS module.
HOW DOES THE DRÄGER INTERLOCK 7000 WORK?
Before you can start the engine, the device measures
the alcohol content in your breath. If the measurement
result is below the set limit value you can start the
engine. If the measured breath alcohol concentration
exceeds this limit value the device reliably prevents the
engine from being started. Retests are required while
driving and are carried out at random intervals. The
device gives you the necessary time to stop the vehicle,
so that you can carry out the test without being rushed.
The Interlock 7000 does not interfere with a running
engine. Your driving will not be disrupted by the device.
All data such as initial tests, retests, and possible
manipulation attempts are recorded in the control unit
and forwarded to the responsible entity.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW
The Interlock 7000 can tell the difference between
residual mouth alcohol and breath alcohol. Mouth
alcohol caused by food and beverages that contain
small amounts of alcohol can affect the test result.
You cannot start the vehicle for a pre-defined period
of time if a certain breath alcohol concentration is
detected. The measurement result is documented in
the control unit.
