FLUID SUPPLY DEVICE, SEPTUM USABLE WITH FLUID SUPPLY DEVICE AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A septum device (10, 30) usable with a fluid interconnect unit (29, 39) of a fluid supply device (200,300) is disclosed. The septum device includes a resilient main body (11,31) to be inserted into the fluid interconnect unit of the fluid supply device. The resilient main body includes an interior septum surface (12, 32) forming a longitudinal opening to removably receive a fluid extraction member and an exterior septum surface (13, 33). The interior septum surface includes interior engagement members (126, 32b) extending toward the opening and spaced apart from each other in a longitudinal direction. The exterior septum surface includes exterior engagement members extending away from the opening and spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction to engage an interior interconnect surface (26, 36) of the fluid interconnect unit.
