1. A transfer device comprising:

  • a base plate without openings;

    an upper housing; and

    a lower housing securable to the base plate and providing multiple compartments, the lower housing slidably receiving a portion of the upper housing;

    a fluidic conduit system integral with the lower housing providing fluid communication between the multiple compartments, the fluidic conduit system comprising;

    (i) a first container accessing member having a longitudinal axis distally projecting essentially vertical from the lower housing, and having corresponding therewith a first fluid lumen and a second fluid lumen essentially parallel with the longitudinal axis, the first fluid lumen of the first container accessing member in fluid communication with a vent;

    (ii) a second container accessing member having a longitudinal axis distally projecting essentially vertical from the lower housing, and having corresponding therewith a first fluid lumen and a second fluid lumen essentially parallel with the longitudinal axis, the first fluid lumen of the second container accessing member in fluid communication with the second fluid lumen of the first container accessing member; and

    (iii) a delivery device accessing member configured to control fluid communication between a delivery device and the fluidic conduit system, the delivery device accessing member having a first fluid lumen in fluid communication with the second fluid lumen of the second container accessing member, wherein the delivery device accessing member is configured with at least one of the following;

    (a) a valved access connector; and

    (b) a cannula in combination with a collapsible elastomeric sleeve;

    wherein the lower housing comprises;

    (i) a first flow channel fluidically communicating the first fluid lumen of the first container accessing member with at least one of the vent or a check valve;

    (ii) a second flow channel fluidically communicating the first fluid lumen of the second container accessing member with the second fluid lumen of the first container accessing member, and(iii) a third flow channel fluidically communicating the first fluid lumen of the delivery device accessing member with the second fluid lumen of the second container accessing member;

    the flow channels (i)-(iii) forming the fluidic conduit system by a combination of the base plate and the lower housing are physically isolated from each other.
