1. A fluid handling system, the system comprising:
- a housing comprising;
one or more pumps;
a controller configured to operate the pump(s); and
a catheter assembly comprising;
a catheter body having a proximal portion and an operative device at a distal portion; and
an infusion system in fluid communication with the proximal portion of the catheter body, the infusion system comprising a closure member configured to be separate from the housing in a first state and to at least partially secure the infusion system to the housing in a second state, wherein upon engagement of the closure member with the housing in the second state, the infusion system is operably engaged with the pump(s),wherein the closure member includes an occlusion bed comprising a cavity in the interface body and a tube segment disposed at least partially in the cavity of the occlusion bed,wherein in the second state, a first pump of the one or more pumps compresses the tube segment against the occlusion bed.

13. A removable interface member for a fluid handling system, the interface member comprising:
-
an interface body sized and shaped to be inserted into an interface aperture of a console housing; an electrical component disposed on the interface body; an occlusion bed disposed on the interface body, the occlusion bed comprising a cavity in the interface body; and a tube segment disposed on the interface body at least partially in the cavity of the occlusion bed, wherein the interface body is dimensioned such that when the interface body is inserted into the interface aperture of the console housing, a pump in the console housing is operably engaged with the tube segment and the occlusion bed to compress the tube Segment against the occlusion bed, and an electrical interconnect in the console housing is electrically coupled with the electrical component on the interface body. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method for operably coupling an infusion system to a console housing, the method comprising:
-
positioning an interface body of the infusion system in an interface aperture of the console housing, the interface body comprising an occlusion bed comprising a cavity in the interface body, a tube segment mounted on the interface body at least partially in the cavity of the occlusion bed, and an electrical component; and inserting the interface body through the interface aperture until a pump roller of the console housing compresses the tube segment against the occlusion bed and until an electrical interconnect of the console housing is electrically coupled to the electrical component of the interface body. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27)
