SCRAM Remote Breath

Perform RB Pro Calibration Check

Performing a calibration check on the SCRAM Remote Breath Pro device is a simple process that takes just a few minutes to complete.

Components needed to complete a calibration check include:

  • Gas Cylinder (0.10% Ethanol dry gas)
  • Regulator (4LPM)
  • Rubber Tubing
  • RB Pro Breath Tube

Calibrations and calibration checks must be performed by an AMS-certified calibration technician. To become certified, send an e-mail to training@scramsystems.com requesting enrollment in the SCRAM Remote Breath Pro Calibration Certification Training course.

Key Steps to follow while completing a calibration:

  • Ensure nothing obstructs the air vent on the back of the RB Pro device during calibration. For example, do not lay the device flat on any surface or block the vent with your hand while holding the device.
  • When the device is in an “In Inventory” status, power up the device and ensure the device can communicate before initiating a calibration.
  • When the device is in an “Assigned to Client” status, ensure the device can communicate before initiating a calibration. The device will “wake-up” and begin the calibration process when assigned.

Assemble Remote Breath Pro Calibration Equipment

  1. Screw the regulator onto the canister by hand until snug.
    • You should hear a click as you tighten the regulator.
    • The pressure gauge will display the gas pressure in the canister when attached correctly.
  2. Firmly attach one end of the rubber tubing to the barbed fitting on the regulator.
