The Dräger Interlock is a breath-alcohol measuring instrument with a vehicle "immobilizer". After taking a breath alcohol measurement, the Interlock prohibits a driver who has consumed alcohol from starting the motor. It can easily be installed into the vehicle. By installing a Dräger Interlock, you can avoid accidents caused by alcohol consumption. Additionally, long-term attitude changes towards overcoming alcohol problems may be an added benefit.

The Dräger Interlock XT

• prevents the starting of the vehicle when alcohol is detected in the driver’s breath,
• prevents accidents while under the influence of alcohol,
• high measuring precision, long term stability and specific measurement of alcohol by electrochemical DrägerSensor,
• fast readiness for operation,
• is resistant to tampering,
• records all events in data storage for later review.

Components
The Dräger Interlock XT comprises two main components: the breath-alcohol measuring instrument with the measuring system, which is situated inside the vehicle, and the control unit which is generally installed under the dashboard and allows or prevents current being supplied to the vehicle's starter system.

Operation
When the ignition is switched on, the Dräger Interlock XT requests a breath sample from the driver. The result of the breath-alcohol concentration measurement determines whether the vehicle's starter is released and the engine can be started.
 

Measuring technique
The Dräger Interlock XT determines the breath alcohol concentration by means of an electrochemical sensor system, as it is used also in breath-alcohol measuring instruments of police authorities. It reacts with high specificity to alcohol. As a result, other exhaled substances or cigarette smoke do not distort the measurement result.

Data storage
While the vehicle is in use, all relevant events are recorded in the Dräger Interlock XT's data log: date, time, submission of or refusal to submit a breath sample, measured alcohol concentration, engine starts and stops, electrical bypassing of the Interlock and any other attempts to tamper with the device. The data can be downloaded and compiled in a data record (option, needs addtional parts).
