This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E16216S, is a reliable and efficient heat transfer device designed for steam to liquid applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 16 inches, this heat exchanger features two tube passes and a tube bundle length of 96 inches. The tubes are made of copper with a size of 3/4 OD x .035 (20 Ga) wall thickness, specifically SB75 Tubes. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, ensuring easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate and separators are both constructed from steel for durability and longevity. Operating at a working pressure of 150 psi, this heat exchanger is built to withstand demanding conditions while efficiently transferring heat between steam and liquid mediums.
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.
