Method and system for sensing headspace vial presence

Methods and systems for sensing the presence of headspace vials are described herein. In one embodiment, a system may include a sample probe, a fluid source in fluid communication with the sample probe, one or more of a pressure sensor and a flow sensor in fluid communication with the sample probe, and a processor, the processor is configured to (a) receive a first set of signals from one or more of the pressure sensor and the flow sensor, execute a pop-up procedure to remove the sample vial from the sample probe, receive a second set of signals from one or more of the pressure sensor and the flow sensor during step (b), and execute a pop-up procedure to remove the sample vial from the sample probe during step (b). (d) detecting whether the pop-up procedure is successful from the first set of signals and the second set of signals, and (e) initiating one or more actions selected from remedial and alert in response to the detection. 本文描述了用于感测顶空小瓶存在的方法和系统。在一个实施方案中，一种系统可以包括样品探针、与所述样品探针流体连通的流体源、与样品探针流体连通的压力传感器和流量传
