A condensate separator for a portable (smoke) gas analyzer has a separating chamber formed inside a housing through which exhaust gasses pass. A condensate-collecting chamber is provided in hydraulic communication with the separating chamber and is at least partially filled with liquid absorbent material. The condensate removed from the exhaust gas is collected by the liquid absorbent material and wicked up through capillary action. Liquid is removed from the liquid absorbent material by a mechanical pump without requiring that the gas analyzer be stopped to drain out the condensate.
