Abstract
The method and system for detecting occlusion in a fluid line upstream of a pump concerns a fluid pump with a pump cycle in which the upstream pressure of the fluid line is communicated to the downstream portion of the fluid line. A pressure sensor located downstream of the pump is capable of measuring a relatively large negative-going pressure in the fluid line. A signal is generated to indicate occlusion based upon detection of negative-going pressure.
