ABSTRACT:
A sensor and system for monitoring the accumulation of contaminants in oil wherein the contaminants have an electrical conductivity which is different from the oil. An electrochemical cell is used to measure the alternating current conductivity of the oil to provide an indication of the amount of contaminants present in the oil. Acids and water are two common engine oil contaminants which are accurately monitored by this alternating current conductivity measurement system.
