This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G8412L, is designed for liquid to liquid heat transfer applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, it features a 4 pass tube configuration for efficient heat exchange. The tube bundle length measures 72 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat transfer. The tubes are made of Cu/Ni 90/10 material with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .035 inches. They are constructed using SB111-706 standards and have a thickness of 20 gauge. The heat exchanger is equipped with threaded connections for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate is made of stainless steel (Type 304) for corrosion resistance, while the separators are fabricated from steel. This heat exchanger can operate at working pressures up to 150 psi, making it suitable for various industrial 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.
