Floating Head Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger

Floating head heat exchangers offer a wide range of applications, particularly in the chemical and petrochemical industries. They are primarily used for heat exchange operations. The floating head design is especially beneficial when there is a significant temperature difference between the hot and cold fluids, as it prevents excessive stress in the axial direction of the shell and tubes. The floating head’s ability to move allows for expansion in the axial direction.
