This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E14206S, is a steam to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 14 inches, this heat exchanger is capable of handling high volumes of steam and liquid. The heat exchanger features 2 tube passes, allowing for increased heat transfer efficiency. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes are made of 316 stainless steel with a diameter of 3/4 inch and a wall thickness of .049 inches. They comply with SA249 TP316 standards and have an 18-gauge thickness. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and leak-free connections. The tube plate material is made of steel, providing durability and strength. Steel separators are also used in this heat exchanger to enhance performance and prevent mixing of the steam and liquid streams. With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is suitable for various industrial applications where efficient 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.
