With a nominal shell diameter of 16 inches, this heat exchanger offers ample capacity for effective heat exchange. It features 4 tube passes, allowing for enhanced efficiency and performance. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, providing sufficient surface area for optimal heat transfer. The tubes are made of double wall cupro-nickel material with a smooth finish, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and longevity. Measuring 3/4" in outer diameter and complying with SB111-706 standards, these tubes are reliable and efficient in transferring heat. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, facilitating easy installation and maintenance. The tube plates on the shell side are made of carbon steel, while the separators are constructed from steel material for added strength and durability. With a working pressure of 150 psi, this heat exchanger is suitable for various industrial applications requiring high-pressure operations.
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.
