Abstract: A connector system having a pair of connector components capable of being used as a reuseable aseptic connection in bioprocessing and/or cell manufacturing processes. Each connector component includes a connector housing having a mating surface with an opening and a door moveable to close and open the opening, and a connector assembly therein. The connector assembly includes a base member having a fluid port; an engagement piece having a pusher portion; and a valve unit therebetween, the valve unit having a resilient deformable valve member. The pusher portion is moveable to cause the pusher portion to urge open the resilient deformable valve member for enabling the fluid flow. When the pair of connector components are interlocked, the doors open and the connector assemblies move and engage with each other through the openings causing the resilient deformable valve members to open for establishing a fluid connection.
