The 6% Luer taper connector for syringes is a commonly used medical device connector, typically employed in low-pressure or infrequent operation applications, such as infusion lines or low-pressure injections. The "6%" refers to the ratio of the taper angle to the length of the cone. The taper angle is the angle between the side of the cone and its central axis, and 6% means that for every unit of length along the cone, the diameter increases by 6%.

I. Introduction to the 6% Luer Taper Connector Testing Instrument for Syringes

The Ley-T01 6% Luer Taper Connector Tester for syringes is primarily used for testing leakage (liquid and air), separation force, release torque, ease of assembly, overload resistance, stress cracking, resistance to thread stripping, positive pressure liquid leakage rate, and negative pressure air leakage rate of 6% (Luer) taper lock connectors in syringes, injection needles, and other medical devices (such as infusion equipment). It is one of the key instruments for evaluating Luer taper connectors in medical devices, also known as the Syringe Luer Connector Tester or the 6% Luer Taper Connector Performance Tester for syringes.

II. Compliance Standards

Testing and implementation standards for 6% Luer taper connectors include GB/T 1962.1-2015 "Syringes, Injection Needles, and Other Medical Devices—6% (Luer) Taper Connectors—Part 1: General Requirements,"

GB/T 1962.2-2001 "Syringes, Injection Needles, and Other Medical Devices—6% (Luer) Taper Connectors—Part 2: Lock Connectors,"

and related standards such as ISO 80369.

III. Testing Items

1. Liquid Leakage Test: Under standardized experimental conditions, detect whether there is dripping leakage from the connector to evaluate its sealing performance.

2. Air Leakage Test: Similarly, under standardized conditions, observe whether bubbles form inside the connector to assess its airtightness.

3. Separation Force Test: Test the connection strength between the test connector and a standard connector under specific conditions to ensure it does not separate easily during normal use.

4. Stress Cracking Test: Evaluate the connector's resistance to cracking under certain stress to ensure long-term safety in use.

5. Release Torque Test: Simulate rotational operations in actual use to check whether the connector's release torque meets requirements, preventing connection failure due to excessive or insufficient torque.

6. Resistance to Thread Stripping Test: Apply a certain torque to the test connector and maintain it for a specified duration to observe whether thread stripping occurs, ensuring the connector's stability.
