Breath-Based Alcohol Detection System
J3214_202101
This standard establishes the performance specifications for the zero-tolerance breath alcohol detection system to reduce the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol. It defines the accuracy and precision requirements of the BrAC measurement, as well as the acceptability criteria and key parameters to test these requirements. Additionally, this standard sets the performance requirements of the system for ethanol sensitivity, the response time, and the electrical, mechanical, and environmental conditions the system may encounter throughout the lifespan of the vehicle.
Rationale:
This standard establishes the performance specifications for the zero-tolerance breath alcohol detection system to reduce the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol.
SAE J3214 specifies test methods and essential performance requirements for the directed-breath zero-tolerance breath alcohol detection system.
