Basco Type 500

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Basco Type 500 Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger by API Heat Transfer is designed for cost-effective performance with customizable options. It features fixed tubesheet and removable bundle designs, straight or U-tube arrangements, and one, two, or four-pass flow configurations. Models are available as Commercial Standard, ASME, or ASME/TEMA-C.

Quality and Reliability: Manufactured with high-quality materials and precision machining, these heat exchangers ensure reliability and durability, suitable for applications like compressor systems, hydraulic systems, and marine applications.

Manufacturing: Produced in ISO 9001 certified facilities in Buffalo, NY, and Suzhou, China, the manufacturing process includes precision drilling, rolled coil tubing, and burr-free cutting for superior quality.

Materials and Construction: Features include heavy stamped steel mounting brackets, tubes in various materials (Copper, 90/10 CuNi, Stainless Steel, Admiralty, Titanium), and rugged shells in Steel or Stainless Steel. Baffles and tubesheets are precision-engineered for optimal performance.

Specifications: Detailed specifications for different models include dimensions, materials, and connection sizes, with models ranging from 3” to 12” in diameter and various tube configurations.

Performance and Testing: Designed to withstand pressures up to 300 psi on the shell side and 150 psi on the tube side, with design temperatures up to 300°F. All units undergo pneumatic or hydrostatic testing to ensure quality.

Applications: Versatile use in applications such as air dryers, vapor recovery systems, and sterilizing systems.

Specifications and Models: Detailed specifications for various models, including dimensions, weight, and configurations for two-pass and four-pass systems. Models like 05048, 06048, and 08048 are discussed with specific measurements and maximum flow rates.

Procedures and Calculations: Outlines procedures for selecting the right heat exchanger, including thermal duty determination, cooling water flow requirements, and exchanger surface area calculations. A sample calculation is provided for a Type 500 Heat Exchanger.

Standards and Recommendations: Emphasizes correcting the Log Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD) for multi-pass heat exchangers and provides formulas for calculating heat transfer rates and tube side velocity. Lists typical thermal duty values and overall U-values for different fluid combinations.

Product Offerings: API Heat Transfer offers a range of products including OptiDesign® exchangers, hubbed shell and tube heat exchangers, brazed plate heat exchangers, extended surface exchangers, air-cooled heat exchangers, gasketed plate heat exchangers, and pipeline aftercoolers, each with unique features and applications.
