The housing may include body portion, a first leg extending proximally from the body portion, and a second leg spaced apart from the first leg to define a void. The rim may be on the first leg, and a radiofrequency identification (RFID) tag may be at least partially disposed on an upper wall defining the second leg. A spine may include a proximally-directed surface positioned proximal to a distally-directed surface of a lock element and distal to a proximally-directed surface of an arm. The proximally-directed surface of the spine may be a ramped surface. A seal may be coupled to the rim and include a seal body shaped to cover the outlet opening.
