Abstract: Apparatuses are disclosed including an apparatus for machine fluid monitoring or sampling comprising a transparent sight glass attachable to a machine such that machine fluid is transferable to the sight glass. The sight glass is at least partially constructed of one or more materials that is transparent to light in a visible region. The sight glass has an open first end, a closed second end, an inside surface and an outside surface extending from the open first end to the closed second end and across the closed second end, the sight glass at least partially surrounds a cavity within the sight glass, the inside surface and the outside surface of the closed second end being parallel. The closed second end is constructed of the one or more materials that are transparent to light in the visible region to allow inspection of machine fluid through the closed second end.

Abstract: Apparatuses are disclosed for machine fluid monitoring/sampling comprising a transparent sight glass attachable to a machine such that machine fluid is transferable to the sight glass. The sight glass may have an open first end, a closed second end, a sidewall, and an inside surface and an outside surface extending from the open first end to the closed second end and at least partially surrounding a cavity for the machine fluid, and one or more remote sensing ports. The one or more remote sensing ports may have a wall, an inner face, and an outer face, and may be positioned between the open first end and the closed second end of the sight glass. The material of the one or more remote sensing ports may be shaped to reduce distortion and/or increase visibility of the machine fluid relative to portions of the sight glass bordering the remote sensing ports.

The sight glass may have one or more ports, an open first end, a closed second end, and a cavity for the machine fluid. A grommet may be positioned in a first port of the sight glass and may have a sealable access pathway through the grommet to the cavity within the sight glass through which a probe may be extended. A magnetic plug may be positioned in the second port of the sight glass extending into the cavity within the sight glass such that the magnetic plug is positionable for contact with the machine fluid. A sample port assembly may be connected to the sight glass whereby samples of the machine fluid are accessible.
