With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, it features a 2-pass configuration for enhanced performance. The tube bundle length measures 48 inches, providing ample surface area for heat exchange. The tubes are made of Cu/Ni 90/10 material, with a size of 3/4 ODx.049 Wall SB111-706 and 18 gauge thickness. The connections are threaded for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate is constructed from naval brass, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. Steel separators are used to efficiently separate the steam and liquid phases. This heat exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various applications requiring high-pressure operation.
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.
