This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G8418L, is a high-quality heat transfer device designed for liquid to liquid applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, this heat exchanger is capable of handling various fluid volumes. It features 4 tube passes, allowing for efficient heat exchange between the two liquids. The tube bundle length measures 108 inches, providing ample surface area for optimal heat transfer. The tubes are made of 304 stainless steel with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed with SA249 TP304 material and have an 18-gauge thickness. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plate material is grooved 304 stainless steel, further enhancing the heat transfer process. Steel separators are used within the heat exchanger to promote proper fluid flow and prevent cross-contamination. With a working pressure of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger can handle demanding 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.
