A pressure jacket for use with a fluid injector may have a pressure jacket body having a proximal end, a distal end, and a circumferential sidewall extending between the proximal end and the distal end along a pressure jacket longitudinal axis. The pressure jacket may further have at least one resiliently deflectable retaining member having a first segment attached to the pressure jacket body and a second segment protruding from the first segment toward the distal end of the pressure jacket body and deflectable relative to the first segment. The pressure jacket may further have at least one actuation member associated with the at least one resiliently deflectable retaining member. The at least one actuation member may interact with a housing of the fluid injector when the pressure jacket is connected to the housing to deflect the at least one resiliently deflectable retaining member upon rotation of the pressure jacket.
