    Abstract: A method of detecting gas with a photoionization detector, PID, system (1, 100), comprising: determining and storing, by a controller (2, 102), a zero level of a photoionization detector (4, 104, 106, 108, 112, 116), using ambient air flowed from surrounding environment past a detector electrode (108) of the photoionization detector (4, 104, 106, 108, 112, 116), wherein the stored zero level is based on an ambient temperature; sensing the ambient temperature; adapting the stored zero level algorithmically based on a change sensed in the ambient temperature; sampling, by the controller (2, 102), an output of the detector electrode (108) of the photoionization detector (4, 104, 106, 108, 112, 116) when an ultraviolet lamp (106) is in a turned ON state; and comparing the sampled output of the detector electrode (108) to the stored zero level to determine if a threshold concentration of a gas is present.

    Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling a liquid chromatograph capable of determining whether a bubble remains in a flow path. The method for controlling a liquid chromatograph (300) according to the invention is a method for controlling the liquid chromatograph (300) including a liquid delivery pump, a flow path connected to the liquid delivery pump, a flow path switching valve (an auto purge valve (205), an injection valve (207), and a stream select valve (304)) provided in the flow path and configured to switch a plurality of connection destinations for the flow path, and a pressure sensor configured to detect at least one of a liquid delivery pressure of the liquid delivery pump, a flow path pressure in the flow path, and a pressure applied to the flow path switching valve. The method includes rotating the flow path switching valve during liquid delivery from the liquid delivery pump, and determining whether a bubble remains in the flow path based on a pressure fluctuation when the pressure lowered by rotating the flow path switching valve increases.
