Alcohol Interlock Systems
Introducing Alcohol sensitive vehicle immobilisation - Advanced Biometric Solution
The Autowatch WAB (Wireless Alcohol Breathalyser) or TAB (Tethered Alcohol Breathalyser) systems give an advanced vehicle immobilisation solution to prevent driving while over the legal alcohol limit. This reducers the risk and exposure of Fleet Owners where accidents are extremely costly in terms of the loss or damage to the cargo, the vehicle and the loss in production while the damaged vehicle is out of service.
The driver blows into the alcohol sensor (TAB) to verify that they are under the legal limit, which will release the immobiliser allowing the vehicle to start. Drivers who are over the legal limit will be prevented from starting their vehicles by the unit remaining immobilised.
The TAB can be configured to lock out or allow multiple resets to release the immobiliser thus allowing a driver to wait until their blood alcohol level drops and blow into the sensor again. If the Re-test Feature is selected then at predefined intervals the system will require a new breath sample to be provided. This ensures that the drivers are re-tested at random while on route.
All sample information and failures are stored in a non volatile memory with date and time stamp. If a failure occurs this can be automatically communicated if the optional GSM module is connected.
The TAB has a built in temperature sensor therefore with the unit permanently fitted to the vehicle, warm up times in Winter and cooling down times in Summer are significantly reduced.
All parameters in the TAB and VBS are configurable to meet operating requirements.
The driver blows into the wireless alcohol sensor (WAB) to verify that they are under the legal limit, which will release the immobiliser allowing the vehicle to start. Drivers who are over the legal limit will be prevented from starting their vehicles by the unit remaining immobilised.
The WAB is small and discreet allowing it to be installed without having the need to mount a tethered unit inside the vehicle.
The WAB can be configured to lock out or allow multiple resets to release the immobiliser thus allowing a driver to wait until their blood alcohol level drops and blow into the sensor again.

The WAB is fully removable from the vehicle allowing it to be kept warm in the coldest winters reducing starting time.
All parameters in the WAB and VBS are configurable to meet operating requirements.
