Answer 1 (Gove) is correct. To filter the dust particles
which enter in to the breather. I have seen 2 type of
silica gels 1. Normal colour Blue after collecting moisture
it turns to Pink colour.
2. Normal colour Orange after collecting moisture it turns
to Green.(imported silica gel).

Answer / srinandan
The sole purpose of oil cup in breather is to absorb dust particles in the air which is going to transformer. Silica gel absorbs moisture and oil cup absorbs the dust particle.

If it is directly exposed to air it will become pink &
hence cannot be used. Its purpose is only to allow the air
trapped in the tank to be released thrg it.

Answer / sumit srivastava
it is filled with oil so that even if breathing action is
not occuring ,the oil is prevented from absorbing
moisture.So when breathing action occurs silica gel takes
care of the transformer oil and in idle conditions it is
protected by oil.
