Medical condensate trap for medical use, method for dehumidifying, blood treatment apparatus, blood treatment device

A medical condensate trap for use in a blood treatment performed externally using a blood treatment apparatus, wherein the condensate trap comprises:

• an interior;
• a first connector structured to connect with tubing and defining a first port on a first surface of a housing of the condensate trap, wherein the first port is fluidly coupled with the interior, and wherein the first connector is configured to connect the interior to a gas outlet of the blood treatment apparatus in fluid communication;
• a second connector structured to connect with tubing and defining a second port on a second surface of the housing, wherein the second port is fluidly coupled with the interior, wherein the second connector is configured to connect the interior to a gas inlet of the blood treatment apparatus in fluid communication;
• and
• a third connector structured to connect with tubing and defining a third port on a third surface of the housing, wherein the third port is fluidly coupled with the interior, wherein the third connector is configured to connect the interior to an air port of a blood treatment device;
• wherein:
• the condensate trap is configured to dehumidify at least one section of the blood treatment apparatus or the blood treatment device without the use of a filter;
• the second surface of the housing and the third surface of the housing are spaced apart and are parallel to each other;
• and
• and the first surface extends between the second surface of the housing and the third surface of the housing and is generally perpendicular to the second surface of the housing and the third surface of the housing.
