This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E12206S, is a reliable and efficient heat transfer device designed for steam to liquid applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 12 inches, it provides ample space for the heat exchange process. The heat exchanger features a two-pass design, allowing for enhanced heat transfer efficiency. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, ensuring sufficient contact between the steam and liquid mediums. The tubes are made of high-quality 304 stainless steel, with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed with SA249 TP304 material and have an 18-gauge thickness.
The connection type of this heat exchanger is channel-flanged without a cover, providing easy access for maintenance and cleaning. The tube plate material is grooved steel, which enhances heat transfer by increasing the surface area in contact with the fluids. Steel separators are utilized in this heat exchanger to ensure efficient separation of the steam and liquid mediums.
With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger can handle demanding applications with ease. Its fabricated steel head construction ensures durability and longevity in various industrial environments. Whether used in chemical plants, refineries, or HVAC systems, this heat exchanger delivers reliable performance and efficient heat transfer capabilities.
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.
