MONITORING PROCEDURE FOR QUALITY MONITORING OF MEASUREMENT SPECTRA

A monitoring procedure for monitoring the quality of measurement spectra of a liquid medium continuously determined with a spectrometric sensor, which spectra in each case reproduce spectral values in a specified measurement wavelength range, is described with which: for each measurement spectrum, a quality parameter of the respective measurement spectrum is determined in each case based upon at least one characteristic value calculated in each case based upon the spectral values of the respective measurement spectrum, wherein each characteristic value for each measurement spectrum is determined in each case based upon the spectral values of the respective measurement spectrum in a range, specified for the respective characteristic value, of the measurement wavelength range, and, based upon the quality parameters, those measurement spectra which have spectral values that are impaired by a disturbance are identified as outliers.
