Abstract
A process and device for texturing a thread within a false twist texturing device with a heat exchanger having thread passages formed by thread passage segments. The heat exchanger possesses a first section and a second section which form a chamber into which a fluid can flow to treat a thread during operation of the heat exchanger. The first and second sections of the heat exchanger can be manipulated to enlarge the thread passages to facilitate insertion of the thread. After the thread insertion, the heat exchanger is sealable in such a manner that the thread passages seal around the thread to prevent leakage of the fluid from the chamber while allowing the thread to be movable through the heat exchanger.
