PURPOSE: To make connection and removal of a bag for a peritoneal dialytic liquid aseptically by furnishing a thin and long ultraviolet ray element in a casing, and irradiating a connector valve and the inner surface of a conduit in connection with ultraviolet rays. CONSTITUTION: A groove 50 is provided in a seal member 44, and when a diaphragm 38 is broken, a peritoneal dialytic liquid is fed to a tube 20 upon passing through the groove 50, and further to a catheter and the abdominal cavity of a patient. Then the seal member 44 is rotated so that its groove 50 generates connection of the tube 20 with a connector arm 26. A spike 40 of this arm 26 is advanced so as to open the flow path leading between the abdominal cavity of a patient and a bag 36a for accommodating the exhausted dialytic liquid. A connector valve 11 is then reconnected with a new protrusive coupler 30 and vessel 36 or bag 36a attached thereto. When the connector valve 11 is inserted into a housing 80, an ultraviolet ray element 86 irradiates the connector valve 11 and arms 24 and 26. |
