This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E12206S, is designed for efficient heat transfer between steam and liquid. With a nominal shell diameter of 12 inches, this heat exchanger features a 2-pass configuration for enhanced performance. The tube bundle length is 36 inches, providing ample surface area for heat exchange. The tubes are made of Cu/Ni 90/10 material, measuring 3/4 inch in outer diameter with a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed with SB111-706 specifications and are 18 gauge in thickness. The heat transfer medium flows through these tubes while the steam passes through the shell. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plate material is steel, offering durability and strength. Steel separators are also included to ensure proper flow distribution within the heat exchanger. This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications where efficient 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.
