SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BLOCKAGE DETECTION IN GAS DETECTORS
Methods and systems for detecting barrier blockage in a gas detector are disclosed. In some embodiments, a gas detector comprises a barrier configured to define a sensing chamber of the gas detector. The gas detector further comprises a radiation detection system. The radiation detection system comprises a radiation source and a detector. The radiation detection system may be configured for generating output signals related to radiation transmitted through the barrier. The gas detector comprises a controller operatively connected to the radiation detection system. The controller is configured to: determine an amount of radiation transmitted through the barrier based on the output signals; and determine a condition of the barrier based on the determined amount of radiation, wherein the determined condition indicates whether the barrier is blocked.
Particle analyzers and particle test control methods and devices thereof
The present disclosure provides a particle analyzer and a particle test control method and device thereof. A method comprises, acquiring a blood sample in a test location; preparing a diluted sample by the acquired sample; after acquiring a diluted sample, monitoring whether a pore blocking event occurs during a counting process; when the pore blocking event occurs, suspending the test of the sample, and performing an unblocking operation; and after the unblocking operation is completed, re-counting the same diluted sample without re-acquiring and re-diluting the blood sample by the impedance method after the unblocking operation.
