This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E8206L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 8 inches, this heat exchanger features a two-pass design, allowing for enhanced heat exchange capabilities. The tube bundle length measures 36 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat transfer. The tubes are made of 316 stainless steel with a diameter of 3/4 inches and a wall thickness of .049 inches. These tubes are constructed with SA249 TP316 material and have an 18-gauge thickness. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring secure and reliable connections. The tube plate material is grooved 316 stainless steel, further enhancing the efficiency of heat transfer. Steel separators are used in this heat exchanger to optimize the flow of the heat transfer medium. With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is suitable for various applications requiring efficient liquid to liquid heat exchange.
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.
