This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G18420L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 18 inches, it features four tube passes and a tube bundle length of 120 inches. The tubes are made of high-quality 304 stainless steel, measuring 3/4 inches in outer diameter with a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed with SA249 TP304 material and have an 18-gauge thickness. The heat transfer medium flows through the tubes, allowing for effective heat exchange. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, providing easy access for maintenance and inspection. The tube plate material is grooved steel, ensuring secure and reliable performance. Steel separators are used in this heat exchanger to enhance efficiency and prevent cross-contamination between the fluids. With a working pressure of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is designed to meet demanding industrial requirements.
Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers Overview
Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers are equipment used in HVAC systems and various industrial applications for the purpose of transferring heat between two fluids. These exchangers are composed of a large outer shell and an inner tube bundle. The arrangement allows one fluid to flow through the tubes while a second fluid circulates outside the tubes but within the shell. As they pass each other, heat exchange occurs, with the fluid inside the tubes either gaining or losing heat from the fluid in the shell. Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers are noted for their durable construction, effectiveness in heat transfer, and ease of maintenance, including the straightforward process of replacing the tube bundle.
