Abstract

A luer connector, a medical connector for a receptacle having a pierceable stopper and a transfer set including such a luer connector. This luer connector comprises an internal conduit (11) for a fluid to pass, elements (8) of connection to a second luer connector (16) having a perforator (21), these connection elements (8) being placed at one of its ends. This end also includes a continuous rim (24) forming a projection in the conduit (11) so as to provide a seal thereon when the perforator (21) is introduced into the conduit with a view to coupling these connectors (7, 16). A breakable membrane (10) is also placed in the conduit (1i) so as to be separated when the second luer connector (16) is coupled to this luer connector.
