1. A device for delivery of fluid, said device comprising at least two fluid ducts of flexible material having substantially the same inner diameter throughout the entire length of the duct, each of which in one end can be connected to a fluid source and in the opposite end connected to a manifold having an inlet end and an outlet end, andat least one of said fluid ducts is connected to the manifold by a T-shaped hose-barb connector and comprises a pinch valve for closing and opening the duct and a check valve disposed in the at least one of said fluid ducts in the end thereof connected to the manifold between the pinch valve and the manifold,wherein the check valve comprises an anchoring element, an elastomeric flap disc, and a connector rod connecting the anchor element and the flap disc,wherein the anchoring element is connected at one end of the connector rod and the flap disc is connected to the opposite end of the connector rod, such that in resting state, the side cross sectional view of the check valve is in the shape of an “I” with the check valve inserted with the anchoring element at a port end of the T-shaped hose-barb and the elastomeric flap disc in proximity of the junction point of the T-shaped hose-barb connector such that the flap disc sealing directly against the wall of the duct. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein the check valve of the fluid duct situated nearest the inlet end of the manifold as seen in a direction from the inlet end to the outlet end of the manifold is disposed in the manifold up-stream of and close to the adjacent fluid duct. 3. The device of claim 2, further comprising a check valve disposed in the manifold up-stream of and close to each of said fluid ducts being situated nearer the outlet end of the manifold than the two fluid ducts nearest the inlet end of the manifold. 4. The device of claim 1, wherein the device is of a single-use disposable type. 5. The device of claim 1, wherein the device is pre-sterilized. 6. The device of claim 1, wherein the closing force of the check valves is lower in the open state thereof than in the closed state. 7. The device of claim 1, wherein the anchoring element is circular with a plurality of spokes extending from a hub to a circular rim. 8. The device of claim 1, wherein the elastomeric flap disc is manufactured from silicone rubber of Shore A hardness between 10 and 90. 9. The device of claim 8, wherein the elastomeric flap disc is manufactured from silicone rubber of Shore A hardness between 25 and 60. 10. The device of claim 1, wherein the at least one check valve further comprises a support element between the elastomeric flap disc and the anchoring element, adjacent to the elastomeric flap disc. 11. The device of claim 1, wherein the device is pre-sterilized and of a single-use disposable type. 12. A check valve insertable in a hose-barb connector, wherein the hose-barb connector comprises a junction point formed by a horizontal duct intersecting with a vertical duct having an inner diameter that is substantially the same throughout the entire length of the vertical duct and a port end at the end of the vertical duct, the check valve comprising an anchoring element,an elastomeric flap disc, anda connector rod connecting the anchor element and the flap disc,wherein the anchoring element is connected at one end of the connector rod and the flap disc is connected to the opposite end of the connector rod, such that in resting state, the side cross sectional view of the check valve is in the shape of an “I”, andwherein the check valve can be inserted with the anchoring element at the port end of the hose-barb and the elastomeric flap disc in proximity of the junction point of the hose-barb connector such that flap disc seals directly against the wall of the vertical duct. 13. The check valve of claim 12, wherein the anchoring element is circular with a plurality of spokes extending from a hub to a circular rim. 14. The check valve of claim 12, wherein the elastomeric flap disc is manufactured from silicone rubber of Shore A hardness between 10 and 90. 15. The check valve of claim 12, further comprising a support element between the elastomeric flap disc and the anchoring element, adjacent to the elastomeric flap disc. 16. The check valve of claim 12, wherein the elastomeric flap disc is manufactured from silicone rubber of Shore A hardness between 25 and 60. 17. The check valve of claim 12, wherein the check valve is pre-sterilized and of a single-use disposable type. 18. A device for delivery of fluid, said device comprising at least two fluid ducts of flexible material having substantially the same inner diameter throughout the entire length of the duct, each of which in one end can be connected to a fluid source and in the opposite end connected to a manifold having an inlet end and an outlet end,at least one of said fluid ducts is connected to the manifold by a T-shaped hose-barb connector and comprises a pinch valve for closing and opening the duct and a check valve disposed in the each one of said fluid ducts in the end thereof connected to the manifold between the pinch valve and the manifold, wherein the check valve of the fluid duct situated nearest the inlet end of the manifold as seen in a direction from the inlet end to the outlet end of the manifold is disposed in the manifold up-stream of and close to the adjacent fluid duct, andan additional check valve disposed in the manifold up-stream of and close to each of said fluid ducts being situated nearer the outlet end of the manifold than the two fluid ducts nearest the inlet end of the manifold,wherein the check valve comprises an anchoring element, an elastomeric flap disc, and a connector rod connecting the anchor element and the flap disc, wherein the anchoring element is connected at one end of the connector rod and the flap disc is connected to the opposite end of the connector rod, such that in resting state, the side cross sectional view of the check valve is in the shape of an “I” with the check valve inserted with the anchoring element at a port end of the T-shaped hose-barb and the elastomeric flap disc in proximity of a junction point of the hose-barb connector such that the flap disc sealing directly against the wall of the duct. 19.
