As moisture is absorbed, the drying agent will gradually change
from red to orange. When it is orange, replace the drying agent.
If required, an optional visual indicator (not for the SDB-061-CV)
gives an indication of the status of the air breather. With the
moisture absorbed, the oxidation process can be decreased and
the lifetime of the oil and the entire machinery will be extended.
