Patent ID: 7662026

Claim:
A device to resurface a sealing surface of a low-leak rate fluid connector that forms a leaktight seal with a metal gasket in a fluid delivery component, the device comprising: a housing adapted to be reversibly coupled to the fluid connector; an arbor at least partially disposed in the housing, and both rotationally and axially movable within the housing, wherein the arbor has a first end proximal to the sealing surface and a second end distal to the sealing surface and adapted to receive a rotational actuation source; a resurfacing head positioned at the first end of the arbor and having a resurfacing face that includes a resurfacing groove adapted to fit a ridge on the sealing surface of the fluid connector that forms the leaktight seal with the metal gasket, wherein rotational contact between the groove and the ridge causes the resurfacing of the sealing surface such that the ridge forms a leaktight seal with the metal gasket at a leak rate of about 1×10 −3 cc/sec or less, and wherein the resurfacing head is formed integral with the arbor; and wherein the housing keeps the circular resurfacing groove and the circular ridge on the sealing surface aligned during the resurfacing.
