Zusammenfassung:Apparatus and method for mechanically attached connections of conduits ma y include a conduit gripping member (34), a drive member (36), and a seal me mber (48), the drive member causing axial movement of the conduit gripping m ember to indent into an outer surface of the conduit when the assembly is pu lled-up, the drive member causing the seal member to form a zero clearance s eal at a location that is axially spaced from the conduit gripping member. T he zero clearance seal may comprise a face seal arrangement including a gask et (48), and the conduit gripping member may be a ferrule, ring or other dev ice that can grip and optionally seal against the conduit outer surface. The assembly may include 'a sensing function for detecting or sensing a charact eristic or condition of an assembly component or the fluid or both, hi one e mbodiment, a body coupling member has a two piece construction of a main bod y and a conduit socket insert. A flared fitting embodiment is also provided. Sensing functions are also incorporated into fittings other than just zero clearance fittings.
