This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model E12218L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 12 inches, it is capable of handling high volumes of fluid. The heat exchanger features 2 tube passes, ensuring optimal heat exchange between the two liquids. The tube bundle length is 108 inches, providing ample surface area for effective heat transfer. The tubes are made of copper with a size of 3/4 OD x .035 (20 Ga) wall thickness SB75 tubes, known for their excellent thermal conductivity. The connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate and separator materials are both made of steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. With a working pressure rating of 150 psi, this heat exchanger can handle demanding operating conditions with ease.
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.
