Apparatuses and methods for identifying an infusate in a reservoir of an infusion device and systems for use in filling fluid delivery devices are provided. An exemplary apparatus for identifying an infusate in a reservoir of an infusion device includes a chamber in selective fluid communication with the reservoir. Further, the apparatus includes an indicator located in the chamber. The indicator exhibits a visual change when contacted by an infusate. The apparatus also includes a detector arrangement to identify the infusate by detecting the visual change in the indicator. An exemplary detector arrangement may include a camera to capture an image of the infusate and indicator in the chamber, and an identifier element to compare image data to a library of stored image data.
