This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E18210S, is designed for efficient heat transfer between steam and liquid mediums. With a nominal shell diameter of 18 inches, this heat exchanger features a two-pass design for enhanced performance. The tube bundle length measures 60 inches, allowing for ample surface area for heat exchange. The tubes are constructed from copper with a size of 3/4 OD x .049 (18 Ga) wall thickness SB75 tubes. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, providing easy access for maintenance. The tube plate is made of steel, specifically Type 304 stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. Steel separators are also included in the design. This heat exchanger has a working pressure of 150 psi, making it suitable for various applications requiring efficient 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.
