A b s t r a c t The lubricant monitoring system comprises an element (12) which absorbs a liquid lubricant on the piston rod (5) between a lubricant wiper assembly surrounding the same and a seal which surrounds the piston rod (5) at the place where it enters the compressor cylinder, and an electrode (15) of a measuring capacitor (CM) near said element (12), said element (12) acting as the dielectric of a measuring capacitor. In the event of a fault on the lubricant wiper assembly, liquid lubricant is absorbed by the element so that the dielectric constant changes, and this can be utilized for an alarm. (Fig. 2)
