Rev 3.09 6-1 INTOXILYZER 5000EN THEORY/OPERATION
2
Rev 3.096-2 Infra- Red Light Absorption I nfra - Red light is a form of energy known as: ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION The Electromagnetic Scale Fast Slow cosmic rays gamma rays x-rays light Ultra- violet visibleinfraredmicr o wave radio wave
3
Rev 3.096-3 All things will absorb ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION in their own unique and consistent manner
4
Rev 3.096-4 THEREFORE All things will absorb INFRARED LIGHT in their own unique and consistent manner And will create their own unique and consistent absorption pattern
5
Rev 3.096-5 THE IR FINGERPRINT OF ETHANOL 3.47 Micron
6
Rev 3.09 6-6 SPECTROPHOTOMETRY The science of measuring the absorption of light or radiant energy to identify and quantify a substance
7
Rev 3.096-7 BASIC SPECTROPHOTOMETRY PRINCIPLES Less Concentrated/ Appears LighterMore Concentrated/ Appears Darker Incidental Radiation Emerging Radiation Incidental Radiation Emerging Radiation
8
Rev 3.09 6-8 SPECTROPHOTOMETER An instrument that is able to use light or radiant energy to identify and quantify a substance
9
Rev 3.09 6-9 SPECTROPHOTOMETER (INTOXILYZER 5000EN) An instrument that is able to use light (Infrared Light) or radiant energy to identify and quantify a substance (Ethanol).
10
Rev 3.09 6-10 SPETROPHOTOMETRIC RELATIONSHIPS 1. Measurements determine concentration. 2. Measurements are made relative to a standard (known) concentration. 3. Quantitative analysis is governed by the BEER- LAMBERT LAW.
11
Rev 3.09 6-11 BEER - LAMBERT LAW Absorption is directly proportional to concentration.

14
Rev 3.096-14 Light Source Sample Chamber LENS Filter the light striking the photo detector produces a level of energy labeled as X BREATH SAMPLE ANALYSIS STEP # 1 Photo Detector
15
Rev 3.096-15 Light Source Sample Chamber LENS Filter Photo Detector Breath Sample In Sample Out The light striking the detector after alcohol is introduced produces a different level of energy labeled as Y The light striking the photo detector produces a level of energy labeled as X STEP # 2 BREATH SAMPLE ANALYSIS
16
Rev 3.096-16 Infra-Red Theory If we establish the amount of IR light able to pass through a chamber with no alcohol present X Then establish the amount of IR light able to pass through a chamber with alcohol present Y Then X Y - = Alcohol Concentration
