Fluid connector systems including first and second connector portions couplable together to form a fluid pathway therethrough and can resist separation or permit separation as desired. A connector portion can include a connector housing and a cover portion. The connector housing includes a connector body and an engagement portion. The connector body defines a tubing opening and a mating opening. The connector body defines a flow path between the tubing opening and the mating opening. The engagement portion at least partially surrounds the connector body. The engagement portion defines an engagement lip extending radially toward the connector body and is configured to releasably engage the connector housing. The flow path includes at least one portion that is normal to the engagement portion. Fluid flow through the flow path exerts a normal force on the connector housing and prevent release of the connector housing with the mating connector portion.

A stable flow regulator assembly includes a body having an aperture that received a tube. The assembly also includes a worm gear that extends through, and is rotationally movable relative to, the body. A worm wheel is rotationally positioned within the body and is pivotably moved within the body by engagement with the worm gear. The worm wheel also includes a slot, configured to align with the aperture, through which a tube may be extended, and as the worm wheel is moved within the body, the slot and the aperture are moved out of and into alignment to compress and release compression upon the tube.
