Built around a removable U-tube bundle, this configuration delivers high-temperature water heating for demanding service. High-temperature water flows through the tube side, so the heads rather than the shell set the pressure limit. Physically, the unit runs a 12-inch shell, 96-inch shell length, and roughly 102 inches overall in a 4-pass arrangement. That works out to about 160 square feet of heat transfer surface on 3/4-inch O.D. tubes. That combination is cataloged as 5-268-12-096-002. Standard construction uses cast iron bonnets, steel shell, copper tubes, and steel tubesheets. Operating limits are 150 PSI on the shell side, 400 PSI on the tube side, and 375°F maximum temperature. Common applications are industrial process heating, high-temperature hot water distribution, and converter duty on HTHW loops.
