With a nominal shell diameter of 18 inches and two tube passes, this heat exchanger provides ample surface area for optimal heat exchange. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, ensuring sufficient contact time between the steam and liquid mediums. The tubes are made of Cu/Ni 90/10 material with a size of 3/4 ODx.035 Wall SB111-706 and a thickness of 20 Ga., providing durability and resistance to corrosion. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is made of steel, ensuring strength and stability, while the separators are also made of steel for added durability. This heat exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications where high pressure 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.
