Abstract
An oil concentration meter includes a sample cell for receiving an oil sample that can be irradiated with infrared rays from a light source. A first interference filter having a design wavelength of 3.4 .mu.m is positioned before a measuring detector, while a second interference filter transmitting a band range between 1 .mu.m and 5 .mu.m is positioned in front of a reference detector. A logarithm of the ratio of the reference detector output to the measuring detector output is used for determining the oil concentration in a sample.
