Claim 27:
28. Fluid temperature control device for an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, comprising:
a casing delimiting a heating/cooling seat configured to accommodate a fluid warming/cooling bag that is configured to be connected to an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus;
a heating/cooling element operatively active in the heating/cooling seat to heat/cool a fluid warming/cooling bag accommodated in the heating/cooling seat; and
two presence detectors configured to detect if and which type of fluid warming/cooling bag is accommodated in the heating/cooling seat of the fluid temperature control device,
wherein a first presence detector of the two presence detectors is operatively active at the heating/cooling seat and configured to detect the presence of a fluid warming/cooling bag accommodated in the heating/cooling seat,
wherein the first presence detector comprises a first transmitter configured to emit a first signal and a first receiver configured to receive the first signal,
wherein the first receiver is positioned with respect to the first transmitter to selectively receive the first signal emitted by the first transmitter after the first signal is reflected,
wherein a second presence detector of the two presence detectors is operatively active at the heating/cooling seat and configured to detect presence of a fluid warming/cooling bag accommodated in the heating/cooling seat,
wherein the second presence detector comprises a scowl transmitter con wired to emit a second signal and a second receiver configured to receive the second signal,
wherein the second receiver is positioned with respect to the second transmitter to selectively receive the second signal emitted by the second transmitter after the second signal is reflected,
wherein the first presence detector and the second presence detector are placed side by side.
