Zusammenfassung:An installation apparatus for connecting a fluid fitting to a fluid element includes a tool mechanism having a first abutment surface and a second abutment surface that faces and is movable relative to the first abutment surface; a first sensor configured to detect a first property of the installation apparatus or fluid fitting and provide a first output corresponding to the first property; a second sensor configured to detect a second property of the installation apparatus or fluid fitting and provide a second output corresponding to the second property; and a processing unit that is configured to generate a first resulting data set based on the first output and second output, and compare the resulting data set with a first predetermined data set to determine if the first resulting data set is compliant with the first predetermined data set.
