Abstract
The present invention relates to a connector element for connecting lengths of tubing, cannulas and catheters to a second connector element. The connector element includes a sealing part that is movable relative to a flow conduit portion of the connector, and which enables the conduit to be sealed with respect to the ambient atmosphere. A sterile connection is therefore ensured.
