A bottle connector (1) for use in a medical fluid transfer arrangement, the bottle connector (1) having an axial direction (A) and a radial direction (R) and comprising a first part (2) and a second part (3), the first part (2) comprising a hollow piercing member (9) comprising an inner gas channel (16) and extending in the axial direction (A) beyond the end (5) of the first part (2). The second part (3) comprises a bottle coupling member (35,36), for coupling the bottle connector (1) to a medical bottle (41). The first and second parts (2,3) are pre-connected and are concentrically arranged with respect to each other and the bottle connector (1 ) has a transport configuration with a first, maximum length (L1) in which the piercing member (9) is completely located within the bottle connector (1), and a fluid transfer configuration with a second, minimum length (L2). |
