Abstract: A breather is disclosed. The breather may have a breather housing, a desiccant material, and a moisture indicator. The breather housing may be configured to receive at least an air flow containing moisture. The desiccant material may be contained within the breather housing, and the desiccant material may be enclosed by a breather wall. The moisture indicator may be located within the breather housing, and the moisture indicator may be positioned between the desiccant material and an internal side of the breather wall. The moisture indicator may provide a visible representation of an amount of moisture adsorbed by the desiccant breather. The visible representation of the moisture indicator may be visually observable through the breather wall. The desiccant material may be configured to adsorb up to about forty percent (40%) of the desiccant material's weight in moisture.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for a breather for a reservoir is provided, including a housing including a plurality of valves, the plurality of valves including (i) at least one valve in a first configuration configured to permit fluid communication from an interior portion of the housing with air outside the reservoir, and (ii) at least one valve in a second configuration configured to permit air to selectively pass between outside the breather and an interior portion of the breather. The breather further includes a plurality of first openings in the housing configured to be in fluid communication with air outside of the reservoir, a second opening of the housing configured to be in fluid communication with air inside the reservoir, and desiccant positioned within the housing.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for a system for a smart liquid information indicator. A liquid reservoir may include a level indicator extending outwardly from the liquid reservoir. An inspection device for inspecting a liquid in a level indicator may be coupled to the level indicator. The inspection device may include a housing and a coupler coupling the housing to the level indicator of the liquid reservoir. At least a portion of the level indicator is received within an interior space of the housing when the housing is coupled to the level indicator. An imaging section may obtain at least one set of inspection data relating to the at least a portion of the level indicator. A communication section may transmit a representation of the at least one set of inspection data from the inspection device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates, in one embodiment, to an oil sight apparatus. The oil sight may include a sight body with a chamber defined in the sight body. The chamber may include a top, a bottom, and a sidewall spanning from the top to the bottom. A separator may be located in the chamber. The separator may be configured to sink in oil and to float in water such that the separator may rest at an oil-water separation line in the chamber.

Abstract: A breather including desiccant for humidity control includes an electronic end of life detection system. A temperature sensor and humidity sensor provide a temperature and humidity of the desiccant to a controller. The controller determines the relative humidity of the desiccant. The controller determines that the desiccant, and thus breather, has reached its end of life (i.e., end of useful life) when the relative humidity reaches a predetermined relative humidity (e.g., 40%). Optionally, a pressure sensor provides a pressure of the reservoir to the controller. The controller determines a fault condition or end of life condition of the breather when the pressure exceeds a predetermined pressure.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided for implementing a system for providing a breather for a reservoir. The system includes a breather including a housing a dehumidifying element therein. The system further includes an operational sensor positioned within the housing, the operational sensor configured to output a sensor signal indicative of a measured operational parameter of the breather, and an expansion pack coupleable to the housing, the expansion pack is configured to receive the sensor signal indicative of the measured operational parameter and to transmit at least one of the measured operational parameter or a representation thereof. The system includes a control unit communicatively coupleable to the expansion pack having a processor, a display unit, and a storage. The processor executes a control application configured to receive the at least one of the measured operational parameter or representation thereof.

Abstract: A lid body of a lid apparatus includes a spout opening defined in the lid body; a handle opposite the spout opening; and a vent opening defined in the lid body between the spout opening and the handle. The lid apparatus also includes an elongate pin slidably received in the body and translatable between a closed position and an open position.
