Patent ID: 8622437

Claim:
A fluidic terminal comprising: two or more conduits for transporting fluid, each of the two or more conduits having a proximal end, a proximal opening and a distal end; a substantially cylindrical housing having two or more axial bores and a proximal face, each of the two or more axial bores having a cylindrical portion and a proximal portion, the proximal end of each conduit positioned in an axial bore of the two or more axial bores, the axial bores and the conduits extending along a common axis, a volume of the cylindrical and proximal portions of the axial bores not occupied by the conduits being back-filled with a thermoplastic polymer, the proximal ends of the conduits extending through the axial bores to the proximal face of the substantially cylindrical housing, and the thermoplastic polymer bonded to the conduits and the substantially cylindrical housing to provide a fluid-tight seal between the conduits and the substantially cylindrical housing, wherein the proximal face is a planar surface housing the proximal ends of the two or more conduits, wherein the planar surface of the proximal face is in sealed engagement with a planar surface of a cap element, and wherein a gasket is set between the cap element and the planar proximal face providing a fluidic seal.
