Refinery Services
FBM Hudson Italiana are a leading company in design and manufacturing high pressure and high temperature shell & tubes heat exchangers for the above mentioned fields.
FBM Hudson Italiana products range includes, among others, conventional bolted-in with welded diaphragm exchangers and also more sophisticated threaded and lock-ring closures
Threaded type heat exchanger, named also Breech Lock Type HE, is a design and operational option to the conventional bolted closures and feature the following advantages:
- Reduction of criticality of large bolted joints and lighter overall exchanger weight due to thinner channels
- Faster opening and closure of the exchanger cover
- No flames due to cutting or welding during maintenance of the exchanger
- Re-setting of gasket seating in operation
