This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E8216L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, it features a double wall cupro-nickel tube bundle with a smooth surface and a diameter of 3/4" OD. The tube bundle has a length of 96 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The heat exchanger has two tube passes, allowing the liquid to flow through the tubes twice for enhanced performance. The connection type is channel-flanged without cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plates are made of shell side tube plates and the separators are constructed from steel, ensuring durability and longevity. This heat exchanger has a working pressure of 150 psi, making it suitable for various applications.
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.
