Abstract
A miniaturized infrared (IR) multichannel sensor system was realized to determine oil degradation e.g. oxidation, increasing water content etc. Different artificially aged oil samples were generated, e.g. oxidative degradation or water increase, and the characteristic degradation features of the spectrum were detected by FTIR spectroscopy. For calibration the system was tested with the oil samples to analyze the influence of different degradation effects to the measurement results.
