Abstract
The invention relates to a turbulator () for a channel () of a process apparatus (), in particular a heat exchanger, reactor or mixer, with a plurality of ribs (), wherein at least one row () of ribs (), which define a common rib plane, is arranged, preferably uniformly, distributed and is, preferably uniformly, spaced apart from one another via gaps () in the longitudinal extension of the turbulator (). In order that the dead volumes and therefore the average residence times can be reduced by proportions that are not utilised or are utilised less efficiently for the process in order to keep the respective process medium in a defined and preferred operational state as far as possible over the entire residence time, it is provided that on at least one longitudinal end of the turbulator () a hook element () is provided for positively hooking a tool () to remove the turbulator () from the channel ().
