Assembly comprising a fluid fitting, sensor device, and casing

An assembly comprising:

• a fluid fitting for mechanical attachment to a fluid element, the fluid fitting comprising:
• a coupling body defining a bore for receiving said fluid element therein, the coupling body comprising a sleeve portion and a tooth that extends radially inward from the sleeve portion for engaging said fluid element, and
• a ring configured to fit over at least one end of the coupling body for mechanically attaching the coupling body to said fluid element, wherein when the ring is installed on the at least one end of the coupling body via force with the fluid element received in the bore, the ring applies a compressive force to the coupling body sufficient to cause permanent deformation of the coupling body such that the tooth of the coupling body bites into said fluid element to thereby attach the coupling body to said fluid element in a non-leaking manner;
• a sensor device affixed to an external surface of the coupling body or the ring, the sensor device comprising a sensor portion including a sensor configured for detecting a physical parameter of the fluid fitting, and a circuit portion comprising a circuit board and one or more circuit components supported by the circuit board, wherein the sensor portion and circuit portion are operatively coupled together;
• and
• a casing that at least partially covers the sensor device.
