    Abstract: A system is disclosed for detecting the presence of dielectric fluids and water in a utility enclosure. The system includes a sensor assembly that may be installed in the utility enclosure. The sensor assembly has an array of capacitance sensors extending into the utility enclosure to an area where the fluids are expected to be present. The sensor assembly also has a pressure sensor that can detect the total pressure of the fluids in the enclosure. The reading from both sensors can be feed to a processor and a transmitter that sends the readings wirelessly to a receiver assembly. The receiver assembly includes a wireless receiver, a second processor connected to the wireless receiver and a display. The processor may process the readings from the sensors to calculate and report the levels of fluids in the enclosure.

    Abstract: A system for monitoring equipment in a non-invasive fashion may include at least one sense device comprising an electronics module that includes a image sensor, at least one controller coupled to receive image data from the image sensor and generate a reading value, a display that displays the reading value from the at least one controller. In addition, a mounting adapter, separate from and attachable to the electronics module, may be included that has a fitting portion adaptable to be affixed to the monitored equipment and an image opening that enables an image of the monitored equipment to be acquired. In other embodiments, a sense device may provide a signal, such as a DC signal from piece of equipment. A configuration tool may configure parameters by which a reading value is generated from such a DC signal. In one arrangement, a configuration tool may configure sense devices via a wireless connection, and display any images of the monitored equipment captured by the sense device. This may enable intuitive configuration of sense devices and/or quick confirmation of sense device readings.
