This Taco Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, model G16410L, is a liquid to liquid heat exchanger designed for efficient heat transfer. With a nominal shell diameter of 16 inches and four tube passes, this heat exchanger is capable of handling high volumes of liquid. The tube bundle length measures 60 inches, providing ample surface area for 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 connection type is channel-flanged without a cover, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. The tube plate material is steel, ensuring durability and longevity. Steel separators are also included in the design to enhance heat transfer efficiency. This heat exchanger has a working pressure rating of 150 psi, making it suitable for various applications requiring high-pressure performance.
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.
