Zusammenfassung:Adapter (24) is adapted to be permanently secured into a tank, or other enclosure. The adapter is configured to receive a replaceable fitting, which is adapted for aseptically transferring fluid material between enclosures. The fitting has a plurality of needle guide channels (86) leading from the outside of the fluid receiver assembly (12) toward the interior of the enclosure (10), and a seal means (26) at the ends of the channels (86). Pierceable, self-closing seal means (26) is between ends of each of the channels (86) and the interior of the enclosure. Projected extensions of the channels pass through corresponding holes (40) in the adapter, so that needles (101) inserted into the channels (86) can penetrate the seal means (26 and enter the interior of the enclosure (10).
