Alcohol interlocks - Test methods and performance requirements - Part 2: Instruments having a mouthpiece and measuring breath alcohol for general preventive use
This European Standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for breath alcohol controlled alcohol interlocks having a mouthpiece. It covers alcohol interlocks intended for general preventive use. This European Standard is directed at test laboratories and manufacturers of alcohol interlocks. It defines requirements and test procedures for type approval. Several parameters (for example alcohol concentration or breath volume) are specified in this European Standard for the purpose of type testing according to this standard only. However, it may be necessary due to national regulations or depending on user requests to set the values of the prescribed parameters differently when the alcohol interlocks are in use. This European Standard also applies to alcohol interlocks integrated into other systems of the vehicle. This European Standard does not apply to – alcohol interlocks intended for use in traffic safety programmes for drink driving offenders (see EN 50436-1), – instruments measuring the alcohol concentration in the ambient air in the vehicle, – alcohol interlocks not having a mouthpiece, – methods of installation and connections to the vehicle.
Alkohol-Interlocks - Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen an das Betriebsverhalten - Teil 2: Geräte mit Mundstück zur Messung des Atemalkohols für den allgemein-präventiven Einsatz
Diese Europäische Norm legt Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen an das Betriebsverhalten für atem-alkohol¬gesteuerte Alkohol-Interlocks fest, die ein Mundstück haben. Sie behandelt Alkohol-Interlocks, die für den allgemein-präventiven Einsatz vorgesehen sind. Diese Europäische Norm richtet sich an Prüflaboratorien und Hersteller von Alkohol-Interlocks. Sie legt Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die Typprüfung fest. Einzelne Parameter (wie zum Beispiel Alkoholkonzentration oder Atemvolumen) sind in dieser Europäischen Norm nur für den Zweck der Typprüfung nach dieser Norm festgelegt. Möglicherweise ist es jedoch notwendig, auf Grund von nationalen Vorschriften oder abhängig von Benutzerwünschen die Werte dieser Parameter für den Einsatz der Alkohol-Interlocks abweichend festzulegen. Diese Europäische Norm gilt auch für Alkohol-Interlocks, die in andere Steuersysteme des Fahrzeugs integriert sind, als auch für mit dem Alkohol-Interlock verbundene Zusatzgeräte. Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für – Alkohol-Interlocks, die für den Einsatz in Verkehrssicherheitsprogrammen für Trunkenheitsfahrer vorgesehen sind (siehe EN 50436-1), – Geräte, die die Alkoholkonzentration in der Innenraumluft des Fahrzeugs messen, – Alkohol-Interlocks, die kein Mundstück besitzen, – Installationsverfahren und Verbindungen zum Fahrzeug.

Introduction
The purpose of alcohol interlocks is to enhance traffic safety by preventing persons with alcohol
concentrations exceeding a set limit value from driving a motor vehicle. EN 50436 series specifies test
methods and essential performance requirements for alcohol interlocks and gives guidance for
decision makers, purchasers and users.
The content and requirements of EN 50436-1 are based on the experience and necessities of drink
driving offender programmes in different countries over several decades. Therefore, alcohol interlocks
used in programmes for drink driving offenders should comply with the above European Standard.
Part 1 is the principal document in EN 50436 series.
Alcohol interlocks for general preventive use are the subject of this part of EN 50436. General
preventive use, which concerns a much larger number of drivers and vehicles, applies to both
professional and private drivers of motor vehicles.
The purpose of EN 50436 series is to specify essential performance requirements and to provide the
respective test methods for available technologies. The technology of alcohol interlocks continues to
evolve, and further innovations can be expected. These could be considered in new parts or revisions
of this European Standard.
