Abstract A wear monitoring system for a lubricant-immersed disc brake comprises a measuring member, wherein the measuring member is configured to engage with an actuating member of the disc brake to move with the actuating member in use. A displacement sensor measures movement of the measuring member. A system controller is connected to the displacement sensor to determine a wear condition of the disc brake based on information received from the displacement sensor. A sensor housing comprises a fluid-tight cavity that contains the displacement sensor and at least part of the measuring member. The measuring member extends through an opening in a side of the sensor housing to engage with the actuating member. A seal arrangement is provided relative to the opening for preventing ingress of lubricant from the lubricant-immersed disc brake into the fluid-tight cavity through the opening. C)N C%4 C~j N~r
