A coupling device is provided with an indicator of good connection. In particular, the indicator is a sound emission means, more particularly a whistle, which, when activated reveals a connection fault, and, in particular, a leak, in the connection. The proposed arrangement also uses cleanliness means configured to limit, or even prevent, the entry of dust into the coupling device. In order to effectively combine the sound emission means and cleanliness means, one or more escape paths are provided that bypass the cleanliness means.

An aseptic coupling arrangement can include a first coupling device and a second aseptic coupling device. In one embodiment, the first and second coupling devices are substantially similar, each having a main body defining a front face and a fluid passageway therethrough. A first connecting feature disposed on the main body of each coupling device may be provided for aligning and coupling the aseptic devices together. Each coupling device may also include a sealing member received in the main body and a membrane removably coupled to the main body front face to cover the sealing member. The first aseptic coupling device may also include a rotatable protective cover that is removably attached to the main body and connected to the membrane. In one embodiment, the removal of the protective covers away from two coupled main bodies, in a direction parallel to the front faces, causes removal of the membranes.

A quick coupling system where a conduit can be pushed into the coupling to secure and seal the conduit with the coupling includes a gripping ring and a seal. The seal is located outboard of the gripping ring so that the gripping ring does not damage the outer surface of the conduit engaged by the seal. The coupling system also may include a wiper outboard of the seal to clean the outer surface of the conduit as the conduit is inserted into the coupling system.
