This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E12212S, is a single-heat exchanger designed to transfer heat between steam and liquid. With a nominal shell diameter of 12 inches, it features two tube passes for efficient heat transfer. The tube bundle length measures 72 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes are made of Cu/Ni 90/10 material, with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .035 inches. These tubes are constructed using SB111-706 specifications and have a gauge thickness of 20. The heat transfer medium for this exchanger is steam to liquid. It has a connection type of channel - flanged - without cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is steel, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance. Additionally, the separators are made of steel to enhance efficiency in separating the fluids. This heat exchanger can handle working pressures up to 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications where reliable 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.
