This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G4406S, is designed for efficient heat transfer between steam and liquid. With a nominal shell diameter of 4 inches, this heat exchanger utilizes a 4-pass tube design to maximize heat transfer. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, and the tubes are made of high-quality 316 stainless steel with a diameter of 3/4 inch and a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed according to SA249 TP316 standards and have an 18-gauge thickness. The heat transfer medium in this exchanger is steam to liquid. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is grooved 316 stainless steel, ensuring excellent durability and performance. Steel separators are used in this exchanger for efficient separation of the fluids. With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is a reliable choice for various industrial applications requiring effective 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.
