This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G30418S, is a high-quality heat transfer device designed for efficient steam to liquid heat exchange. With a nominal shell diameter of 30 inches, this heat exchanger is capable of handling large volumes of steam and liquid flow. The U-tube design ensures optimal heat transfer performance by allowing for maximum surface area contact between the two mediums. The unit features 4 tube passes, providing multiple opportunities for effective heat exchange. The copper 3/4 OD x .035 (20 Ga) wall SB75 tubes offer excellent thermal conductivity and durability. The bundle length measures 108 inches, allowing for sufficient contact time between the steam and liquid. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, providing easy access for maintenance and inspection. Both the tube plate and separators are made of sturdy steel material, ensuring long-lasting performance under high-pressure conditions. With a working pressure of 150 psi, this heat exchanger can handle demanding industrial applications with ease.
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.
