This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G4212S, is a high-quality heat transfer device designed for efficient steam to liquid heat exchange. With a nominal shell diameter of 4 inches, this heat exchanger is compact yet capable of handling substantial thermal loads. It features a 2-pass design, allowing for optimal heat transfer efficiency. The tube bundle length measures 72 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes themselves are made of copper with dimensions of 3/4 OD x .035 (20 Ga) wall thickness, ensuring excellent thermal conductivity. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, making installation and maintenance straightforward. The tube plate and separators are constructed from steel for durability and corrosion resistance. With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications requiring reliable and efficient heat transfer capabilities.
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.
