This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G8412L, is a highly efficient heat transfer device designed for liquid to liquid applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches and four tube passes, this heat exchanger ensures optimal heat exchange between the two liquids. The tube bundle length measures 72 inches, providing ample surface area for efficient heat transfer. The tubes are made of copper with a size of 3/4 OD x .035 (20 Ga) wall SB75, ensuring durability and excellent thermal conductivity. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is steel, providing strength and stability to the unit. Steel separators are used to enhance fluid flow and prevent mixing between the two liquids. This heat exchanger has a working pressure of 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial applications where high pressure conditions are present.
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.
