The application relates to a device in accordance with fluid technology (), having at least one connecting body (), through which at least one fluid-carrying conduit () extends and to which an elastic fluid-carrying hose () can be connected by means of a connecting arrangement (). The connecting arrangement () contains a holding slide (), which is displaceably seated on the connecting body () and through which a pass-through opening () extends, which has an insertion section () and a holding section (), which is narrower than the latter. The connected fluid-carrying hose () itself has been directly inserted through the pass-through opening () of the holding slide () into the fluid-carrying conduit (). The width of the pass-through opening () in the area of the insertion section () is greater, and less in the area of the holding section (), than the nominal exterior diameter of the fluid-carrying hose (), so that in the release position of the holding slide () the latter can be introduced unhindered through the pass-through opening (), and in the holding position of the holding slide () it is clampingly fixed in place, while its hose wall is being deformed.
