This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E16212L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 16 inches, it is capable of handling high volumes of liquid. The heat exchanger features two tube passes, allowing for increased heat transfer efficiency. The tube bundle length measures 72 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes are made of 304 stainless steel with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .049 inches. They are constructed using SA249 TP304 material with 18 gauge thickness. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plate is made of grooved steel, enhancing the heat transfer process. Steel separators are used to efficiently separate the liquids within the exchanger. This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications where high-pressure conditions exist.
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.
