This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E8208S, is designed for efficient heat transfer between steam and liquid mediums. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, it features a double wall cupro-nickel tube bundle that measures 48 inches in length. The smooth tubes have a diameter of 3/4" and are made of SB111-706 cupro-nickel material. The heat exchanger utilizes a 2-pass configuration, allowing for enhanced heat exchange efficiency. It is equipped with channel-flanged connections and does not include a cover. The tube plates on the shell side are made from stainless steel (Type 316), ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. Steel separators are employed to efficiently separate the mediums within the heat exchanger. This Taco heat exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications requiring reliable steam-to-liquid heat transfer.
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.
