This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G14408S, is a highly efficient heat transfer device designed for industrial applications. With a nominal shell diameter of 14 inches and four tube passes, this heat exchanger is capable of handling high volumes of steam to liquid heat transfer. The tube bundle length measures 48 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat exchange. The tubes themselves are made of copper with a diameter of 3/4 inch and a wall thickness of .035 inches (20 Ga). The channel connection type features flanges and does not include a cover. The tube plate and separators are both constructed from durable steel, ensuring long-lasting performance under high pressure conditions. Speaking of pressure, this heat exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
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.
