Abstract

A fluid transfer device for transferring fluid from a first fluid container to a second fluid container such as a piercing member protection device is provided. The fluid transfer device can include a longitudinal axis and a first connection part having a connection means for connecting to a first fluid container. The fluid transfer device can further include a second connection part rotatably mounted to the first connection part by mounting means, and the second connection part can further include connection means for connecting a second fluid container. The mounting means can enable turning of the second connection part with respect to the first connection part. Such a device can allow a user to safely turn e.g., a syringe after assembly to read a volume indication or similar.
