Abstract: A flat heat exchanger tube is formed from a single metal strip and comprising two opposite spaced apart broad sides in a thickness direction of said tube and two opposite nose-forming narrow sides in a width direction of said tube. The strip has two longitudinal edges, the first longitudinal edge being contiguous to the first broad side and the second longitudinal edge being contiguous to the second broad side. The two longitudinal edges of the strip are joined together at a first one of the narrow sides, both longitudinal edges being convex-shaped so that the first edge forms an outer convex bend and the second edge forms an inner convex bend that fits in the outer convex bend and conforms to its internal curvature.

Abstract: A removable water trap device (110) removes moisture from a respiratory gas stream from a patient interface assembly (140), enabling monitoring of gas within the respiratory gas stream by an analysis bench (120). The device includes a housing (111), an upstream water trap connector (115), and a filter assembly (360). The housing includes a first portion (210) insertably attachable to a tether assembly receptacle (132) to connect the device to the analysis bench for delivering the gas stream via a tether line (136). The upstream water trap connector is attachable to a downstream patient interface connector (141, 143) in a sample flow line (145, 148) of the patent interface assembly for receiving the gas stream via the sample flow line. The filter assembly is insertably contained within the housing and configured to remove moisture from the gas stream, the filter assembly including a downstream water trap connector (116) attachable with the tether line within the tether assembly receptacle.
