This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E6208L, is designed for efficient heat transfer between two liquids. With a nominal shell diameter of 6 inches, this heat exchanger features a 2-pass tube design for enhanced performance. The tube bundle length measures 48 inches, providing ample surface area for heat exchange. The tubes are made of 316 stainless steel (3/4 OD x .049 Wall SA249 TP316) and have an 18 gauge thickness, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. The heat transfer medium in this exchanger is liquid to liquid. It is equipped with a channel-flanged connection type without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is grooved 316SS, which provides excellent heat transfer efficiency. Steel separators are used in this heat exchanger to ensure proper flow distribution and maximize performance. With a working pressure of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is suitable for a variety of industrial applications where efficient liquid-to-liquid heat transfer is required.
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.
