In the construction machinery industry, an ICT service begins in sequence and various machine information is provided. Among them, there is a robust demand for information on lubricant properties. Many lubricants are performed oil analysis every given period. However, it is difficult to detect a characteristic sudden change in the oil that occurred between analysis intervals. To solve this problem, we are investigating the constant monitoring of oil properties using sensors. In this study, we verified the possibility of detecting oil condition monitoring items for hydraulic oil and engine oil using an oil sensor that can be used in construction machinery. Furthermore, we collected the lubrication oil used in the construction machinery and investigated the correlation between the measurement results of the sensor and oil analysis. As a result, qualitative and quantitative indicators of sensor measurement values were obtained for lubricant monitoring items, and a prospect of oil condition monitoring was obtained.
