INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE GUTH MODEL 2100 ALCOHOL BREATH SIMULATOR: Add tubing and connector to the simulator. Remove the glass container from the simulator top housing. Pour 500 ml of Certified Simulator Solution into the simulator container. The Guth laboratory glass container has a 500 ml + 5% fill mark.
Page 8
Several models of pumps are available through Guth Laboratories. If a low reading is obtained, check all tubing for leaks. Be sure the glass container is properly tightened to the metal top housing.

If there is no separation, return the unit to Guth Laboratories, Inc. (See instructions page 9). If there is a separation...Try another NIST thermometer (or) follow the instructions for rejoining a mercury separation. CAUTION: If a mercury thermometer is accidentally broken, be very careful. Mercury is poisonous..
Page 10
SEPARATION IN THE CONTRACTION CHAMBER Separation of mercury in the contraction chamber is an entirely different problem. Many thermometers contain scale ranges which begin well above ambient temperatures. These thermometers are provided with a contraction chamber or enlargement which prevents the mercury from entering the bulb at ambient temperatures.

IF THE SIMULATOR DISPLAYS AN ERROR: The Model 2100 provides internal diagnostics checking for several conditions which prevent the simulator from maintaining the correct temperature. When a condition or malfunction occurs, the simulator will deactivate the heater and the agitator motor. The simulator will alarm indicating a malfunction and display the error code.
Page 13
The temperature of the solution is above 34.2 C or radio frequency interference (RFI) has been detected. REMEDY: Turn the simulator off and allow solution to cool. Turn the simulator on. If the condition continues to occur, simulator requires service*. Remove the source of radio interference or change location of the simulator.
Page 14
REMEDY: Turn off the simulator and turn on. If the simulator does not heat, the heating element may be defective. Requires service* *REQUIRES SERVICE - Simulator must be repaired by a Guth certified technician or returned to Guth Laboratories, Inc. (Seeinstructions on page 9.)
