FITTING ELEMENT WITH HYDRAULIC GRIP FORCE ELEMENT

摘要

A fitting element (100), in particular for an HPLC application (10), is configured for providing a fluidic coupling of a tubing (102) to a fluidic device (103). The fitting element (100) comprises a gripping piece (108) to exert - upon coupling of the tubing (102) to the fluidic device (103) - a grip force (G) between the fitting element (100) and the tubing (102). The gripping piece (108) comprises a hydraulic element (170) configured to transform an axial force (S) into a hydraulic pressure (P) within the hydraulic element (170). The hydraulic pressure (P) in the hydraulic element (170) causes the grip force (G).
