Product Overview
ISO 80369-7 Figure C.5 Female Reference Luer Slip Connector
The ISO 80369-7 Figure C.5 Female Reference Luer Slip Connector is used as a controlled mating component when evaluating male Luer connectors. It is designed for test configurations that require a female Luer slip reference interface, and should not be confused with the ISO 80369-7 Figure C.1 Female Reference Luer Lock Connector or the ISO 80369-7 Female Ring Gauge.
This page corrects the previous ISO 80369-20 page classification. The product is not an ISO 80369-20 test apparatus; it is an ISO 80369-7 Annex C reference connector that may be used together with appropriate ISO 80369-20 related test setups when leakage, axial load separation or other performance checks are required.
Customers who already know they need Figure C.5 can order this connector individually. Laboratories that test several Luer slip and Luer lock connector configurations may consider the complete ISO 80369-7 Luer Gauge Set.
Key Drawing Notes and Use Limitation
Based on the ISO 80369-7 Figure C.5 drawing you provided, this reference connector is identified as a female reference Luer slip connector for testing male Luer connectors. The drawing also includes taper length notes and a limitation for certain non-interconnectable characteristic evaluations.

| Edge / Radius Note | R is a radius or chamfer not to exceed 0.5 mm |
| Important Limitation | This reference connector cannot be used for the test of non-interconnectable characteristics against its collar outside diameter because the corresponding defined range is wide and one single reference connector is not representative |
| Dimension Unit | Millimetres unless otherwise indicated |

How It Is Used and What It Tests
Typical Use Procedure
- Confirm that the sample is a male Luer connector and that ISO 80369-7 Figure C.5 is the required reference connector.
- Mate the male Luer sample with the Figure C.5 female reference Luer slip connector.
- Install the assembled connection into the applicable ISO 80369 test setup.
- Apply the required leakage, axial load separation, stress cracking or non-interconnectability test condition.
- Record the result according to the selected test procedure.
- After testing, clean and protect the reference connector to avoid scratches, contamination or deformation.
Typical Test Applications
The Figure C.5 connector may be used in ISO 80369-7 test configurations related to:
- Male Luer connector evaluation
- Luer slip mating interface verification
- Leakage-related test configurations
- Separation from axial load related test configurations
- Stress cracking related connector evaluation
- Non-interconnectable characteristic evaluation only when the selected procedure allows this reference connector
- Laboratory confirmation of male Luer connector fit and engagement
The exact test item, pressure, axial load, holding time and judgment criteria should be confirmed according to the applicable ISO 80369-7 clause and ISO 80369-20 related test method. The Figure C.5 connector itself is a reference connector, not a complete test apparatus.
