This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E18220S, is a heat transfer device designed to efficiently exchange heat between steam and liquid. With a nominal shell diameter of 18 inches, this heat exchanger features two tube passes for enhanced heat transfer. The tube bundle length measures 120 inches, ensuring ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes are made of copper with a size of 3/4 OD x .049 (18 Ga) wall SB75, providing excellent thermal conductivity. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate and separators are constructed from naval brass, which offers corrosion resistance and durability. This heat exchanger has a working pressure of 150 psi, making it 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.
