Abstract:
A system and a process for detecting oil quality includes a light source configured to generate light within an oil container and a sensor configured to detect light from the light source after it has traversed through the oil in the oil container and generate an output signal. The system and process further includes a monitor configured to receive the output signal from the sensor and determine an oil quality of an oil in the oil container.
