Highway Safety Programs; Conforming Products List of Evidential
Breath Alcohol Measurement Devices
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Department of
Transportation.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice updates the Conforming Products List (CPL)
published in the Federal Register on June 14, 2012 (77 FR 35747) for
instruments that conform to the Model Specifications for Evidential
Breath Alcohol Measurement Devices dated, September 17, 1993 (58 FR
48705). This notice also informs the public that all future updates to
the CPL will be posted on NHTSA's Web site.
DATES: Applicable November 2, 2017.

Atkins, Behavioral Research Division, NPD-310, National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC
20590; Telephone; (202) 366-5597.
For legal issues: Megan Brown, Office of Chief Counsel, NCC-300,
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue
SE., Washington, DC 20590; Telephone: (202) 366-1834.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 5, 1973, the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published the Standards for
Devices to Measure Breath Alcohol (38 FR 30459). A Qualified Products
List of Evidential Breath Measurement Devices comprised of instruments
that met this standard was first issued on November 21, 1974 (39 FR
41399).
On December 14, 1984 (49 FR 48854), NHTSA converted this standard
to Model Specifications for Evidential Breath Testing Devices (Model
Specifications), and published a Conforming Products List (CPL) of
instruments that were found to conform to the Model Specifications as
Appendix D to that notice. Those instruments are identified on the CPL
with an asterisk.
On September 17, 1993, NHTSA published a notice to amend the Model
Specifications (58 FR 48705) and to update the CPL. That notice changed
the alcohol concentration levels at which instruments are evaluated,
from 0.000, 0.050, 0.101, and 0.151 BAC, to 0.000, 0.020, 0.040, 0.080,
and 0.160 BAC, respectively. It also included a test for the presence
of acetone and an expanded definition of alcohol to include other low
molecular weight alcohols, e.g., methyl or isopropyl. Since that time,
the CPL has been annotated to indicate which instruments have been
determined to meet the Model Specifications published in 1984, and
which have been determined to meet the Model Specifications, as revised
and published in 1993. Thereafter, NHTSA has periodically updated the
CPL with those breath instruments found to conform to the Model
Specifications. The most recent update to the CPL was published June
14, 2012 (77 FR 35747).
NHTSA published the 1974 Qualified Products List, the 1984 CPL and
all succeeding updates to the CPL in the Federal Register. Future
updates of the CPL will be posted on the NHTSA Web site (https://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/drunk-driving/alcohol-measurement-devices) rather
than to the Federal Register. Online publication will make it easier
for users to access the most recent CPL and will allow NHTSA to make
more timely updates to the CPL. NHTSA will continue to publish any
amendments to the Model Specifications in the Federal Register.
The CPL published today adds twelve (12) new instruments that have
been evaluated and found to conform to the Model Specifications, as
amended on September 17, 1993 for mobile and non-mobile use. One
instrument is distributed by two different companies, so it has been
listed twice. One manufacturer changed their legal name. One
manufacturer added a new product option for USB and Ethernet
connectivity. One manufacturer added a Bluetooth keyboard accessory to
two (2) devices and a calibration accessory for seven (7) of its
devices. These devices were found to conform with or without the
accessories. Another seven (7) instruments are now being listed under a
different distributer/manufacturer and those devices will be cross-
referenced for legacy purposes. In alphabetical order by company, the
new devices are:
(1) The ``AlcoMate TS600'' distributed by AK GlobalTech
Corporation, Palisades Park, New Jersey. This device will be known as
the Alcoscan ALP-1 outside of the U.S. The AlcoMate TS600 is a hand-
held device with an electrochemical (EC) fuel cell sensor. This device
is powered by internal batteries and is intended for mobile or
stationary operations.
(2) The ``Intoxilyzer 500'' manufactured by CMI, Inc., Owensboro,
Kentucky. This instrument is currently listed on the CPL for Alcohol
Screening Devices and will be removed when that CPL is updated.
Improvements to the device's sampling system allow it to conform as an
EBT. It is a hand-held instrument intended for use in mobile or
stationary operations. It uses a fuel cell sensor and is powered by an
internal battery. The Intoxilyzer 500 is also distributed as the Lion
Alcolmeter 500 by Lion Laboratories outside the U.S., so it has been
listed twice on the CPL, once under each of its distributors/
manufacturers.
(3) The ``Intoxilyzer 9000'' manufactured by CMI, Inc., Owensboro,
Kentucky. This is a bench-top device that is intended for use in mobile
or stationary operations. This device uses an infrared (IR) sensor to
measure ethanol concentration. The Intoxilyzer 9000 can be powered by
either 110 volts alternate current (AC) or 12 volts direct current
(DC).
(4) The ``Alcotest 3820'' manufactured by Draeger, Inc., Irving,
Texas. The Alcotest 3820 is a hand-held device that uses an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell sensor to measure ethanol concentration.
This instrument is powered by internal batteries and is intended for
use in stationary or mobile operations.
(5) The ``Alcotest 5510'' manufactured by Draeger, Inc., Irving,
Texas. The Alcotest 5510 is a hand-held device that uses an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell senor to measure ethanol. This device is
powered by internal batteries and is intended for use in mobile or
stationary operations.
(6) The ``Alcotest 5820'' manufactured by Draeger, Inc., Irving,
Texas. The Alcotest 5820 is a hand-held device that uses an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell senor to measure ethanol. This device is
powered by internal batteries and is intended for use in mobile or
stationary operations.
(7) The ``Alcotest 6820'' manufactured by Draeger, Inc., Irving,
Texas. The Alcotest 6820 is a hand-held device that uses an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell senor to measure ethanol. This device is
powered by internal batteries and is intended for use in mobile or
stationary operations.
(8) The ``AlcoQuant 6020 Plus'' manufactured by EnviteC, Wismar,
Germany and distributed by Honeywell GmbH, Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. The
AlcoQuant 6020 Plus is a hand-held device with a fuel cell sensor. This
device is powered by internal batteries and is intended for use in
mobile and stationary operations.
(9) The Alco-Sensor FST manufactured by Intoximeters, Inc., Saint
Louis, Missouri. The Alco-Sensor
[[Page 50941]]
FST is a hand-held Evidential Breath Tester that uses an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell sensor to measure ethanol concentration.
This instrument is powered by internal batteries and is intended for
use in stationary or mobile operations.
(10) The Intox DMT Dual Sensor manufactured by Intoximeters, Inc.,
Saint Louis, Missouri. The Intox DMT Dual Sensor is a bench-top
Evidential Breath Tester that is intended for use in stationary or
mobile operations. This device uses both an infrared (IR) sensor and an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell sensor. The Intox DMT Dual Sensor can be
powered by either 110 volts AC or 12 volts DC.
(11) The ``Intox EC/IR II.t'' manufactured by Intoximeters, Inc,
Saint Louis, Missouri. This is a bench-top device intended for use in
mobile or stationary operations. This device uses both an
electrochemical (EC) fuel cell sensor and an infrared (IR) sensor to
measure ethanol concentrations. The Intox EC/IR II.t can be powered by
either 110 volts AC or 12 volts DC.
(12) The ``FC10Plus'' manufactured by Lifeloc Technologies, Inc.,
Wheat Ridge, Colorado. This is a hand-held device that is intended for
use in mobile or stationary operations. This device uses a fuel cell
sensor and is powered by internal batteries.
This update indicates that two (2) devices (the Phoenix 6.0 and the
FC20, manufactured by Lifeloc Technologies, Inc., Wheat Ridge,
Colorado) come with Bluetooth keyboard support and five additional
fields that users can use to enter additional information. With these
features, these devices will be listed on the CPL as the ``Phoenix
6.0BT'' and the ``FC20BT''. This update indicates also that seven (7)
devices manufactured by Lifeloc come with the EASYCAL calibration
accessory. Those devices include the FC10, FC10Plus, FC20, FC20BT,
EV30, Phoenix 6.0 and the Phoenix 6.0BT. The CPL specifies that each of
these devices conforms to the model specifications ``w/or without the
EASYCAL accessory.''
Intoximeters, Inc., Saint Louis, Missouri acquired the breath
alcohol testing business of National Patent Analytical Systems, Inc.
(NPAS). Since there have been no changes to the devices other than
ownership and a device name change, all six devices previously listed
under NPAS (BAC DataMaster (with or without the Delta-1 accessory), BAC
Verifier DataMaster (w/or without the Delta-1 accessory), DataMaster
cdm (w/or without the Delta-1 accessory), DataMaster DMT w/Fuel Cell
option, DataMaster DMT w/Rev A Fuel Cell option, and DataMaster DMT)
will now be listed under both Intoximeters and NPAS. The NPAS
DataMaster DMT will now be known as the Intoximeters Intox DMT.
Accordingly, this device will be listed under Intoximeters under both
names.
The CPL has been updated to reflect that Draeger Safety
Diagnostics, Inc. will begin operating under the name Draeger, Inc.
effective July 1, 2017 in order to align all sales and service
operations for Draeger in the United States.
In accordance with the foregoing, the CPL is updated, as set forth
below.
