ABSTRACT:
For use in connecting a plurality of pairs of fluid conduits wherein each pair comprises matching first and second conduits, an anti-mismatch system for preventing the inadvertent connection of mismatched fluid conduits. The anti-mismatch system comprises a plurality of sets of anti-mismatch fittings, each set including a first anti-mismatch fitting adapted for detachable connection to the first fluid conduit of each of the pairs of matching fluid conduits and a second anti-mismatch fitting adapted for detachable connection to the second fluid conduit of each of the pairs of matching fluid conduits. The first and second anti-mismatch fittings of each set are uniquely configured for interengagement only with one another and not with anti-mismatch fittings of different sets thereby to enable connection only of matching first and second fluid conduits.
