I believe you are talking about the air drier of a transformer
because this is an electrical forum.
When the transformer gets hot the insulating oil gets expended
and the air inside the conservator tank is pushed out through
the breather pipes and when the transformer gets cooler the
oil contracts and external air is drawn in. A path is created
for the movement of the air and some drying agent is placed
within them like silica gel.So all moisture is trapped by
drier.

Observed incoming generator voltage higher than running voltage. CECR operator operated Generator Transformer OLTC to bring down the incoming generator voltage 12.03 a.m :-Generator Transformer abnormal alarm operated at Gen.Control Desk (CECR) CECR operater at Generator transformer bay informed that the transformer oil splashed out from OLTC. CECR operater informed that he heard explosion inside OLTC. Observed Oil level & Oil Flow alaram operated at Tranformer local annunciator. 12.05 am :- CECR operator 'Open Gen Field Breaker” 12.10 a.m. :- Elec1 team inspected the OLTC and found the OLTC rupture disk was broken and oil spilled at OLTC area. - Elec1 found the OLTC top cover bulging.
