ALCO-Safe, a leading provider of alcohol testing solutions, is pleased to announce the addition of the LION 900 breathalyser to its product line. Developed by LION Laboratories, the LION 900 is a cutting-edge handheld device designed for fast, accurate, and on-the-spot determination of a subject’s breath alcohol concentration level.

 

Unmatched accuracy and stability

The LION 900 features a revolutionary electrochemical fuel cell sensor that delivers exceptional accuracy and stability in delivering reliable breath alcohol readings. This translates to consistent readings and confident decision-making in safety-critical situations, which ensures legal defensibility in court through adherence to strict standards and reduces long-term costs by minimising calibration needs and extending sensor lifespan.

“The LION 900 represents a significant leap forward in breathalyser technology. Its exceptional accuracy, advanced connectivity features, cloud-based app integration with industry-leading compliance certifications, and future-proof design make it an invaluable tool for a wide range of applications,” notes Rhys Evans, Managing Director of ALCO-Safe.

 

Enhanced functionality with seamless connectivity and cloud integration

The LION 900 goes beyond basic breath alcohol testing. Bluetooth connectivity allows for effortless connection to various devices like printers, PCs, or mobile phones. GPS technology provides pinpoint location data for each test, ensuring transparency and detailed record-keeping. Test data can be uploaded to a secure, cloud-based app, enabling:

  • Centralised data management: Access and manage all test results from a single location.
  • Customisable reporting: Generate reports tailored to your specific needs.
  • Actionable insights: Gain valuable insights into testing trends and identify potential areas of concern.

 

White-label cloud app for increased customisation

ALCO-Safe takes data management a step further with a unique white-labelling opportunity. The cloud-based app can be customised to a company’s branding, allowing companies to develop specific features and functionalities to meet their needs, depending on the use case.

 

Industry-leading compliance for evidentiary reliability

The LION 900 is certified to EN 15964, the European standard for evidential breathalysers. This rigorous certification ensures the device meets the strictest requirements for accuracy, reliability, and tamper-proof operation. Additionally, the LION 900 boasts an IP54 rating, signifying its resistance to dust and water ingress. These certifications solidify the LION 900’s role in legal proceedings, and in the event of a dismissal hearing due to alleged alcohol use, the integrity of a breath test conducted with the LION 900 will be tough to dispute.

 

Future-proof design

The LION 900 is built for the future. Its powerful processor paves the way for ongoing software updates, introducing new features and functionalities over time. This ensures the breathalyser remains at the forefront of technological advancements, ensuring the longevity and relevance of the device long after purchase.

 

Immense benefits across multiple industries

The LION 900 caters to various industries with its unique features:

  • Transportation: Companies with mobile workforces can leverage the app to track testing completion, location data, and generate reports for improved safety compliance.
  • Manufacturing: Multi-site operations can monitor testing frequency, identify areas requiring additional focus, and generate custom reports for informed decision-making. The white-label functionality can further enhance internal processes.
  • Law Enforcement: Improved roadside testing efficiency with location verification, and streamlined data management via the cloud app, which has the potential to reduce corruption and the possibility of accepting bribes at roadblocks.

“We are particularly excited about the potential of the LION 900 to empower businesses with the data and insights they need to make informed decisions about workplace safety. The cloud-based app and customisable reporting features are game-changers in this regard,” concludes Evans.
