Wouldn't this be nice as a corner radiator?
Found it a couple days ago.
It handled steam very well.

No @JUGHNE , I don't think @Danny Scully has your best interests in mind. You should send that to me until you sort it out. I promise to take good care of itDanny Scully said:No I don't think it would work and you should immediately send it to me for your own safety, as copper is known to cause cancer in the state of California...
You can have it good, fast or cheap. Pick two1 -
I see a lot of interest in this. Any idea of EDR or do I need to get the paint vat out again?
How about who made it?

What do you mean it "handled" steam very well?
Why isn't it handling it anymore?

Well EarnieJ, it is the middle of June for one thing. Even your steamer is off.

Good eye ED. It came out of a 365 gallon tank that could deliver 450 GPH of hot water at a 100 degree rise. 5 PSI steam applied thru control valve. Maybe the second one in 40 years of constant use (same tank).
I thought of saving the flanges, but one was welded as part of the tank and the one with the inlet/outlet had 2 1/2" pipes in it (40 YO). If connectable it would have made a great HW rad or a real but burner if connected to steam. Very heavy.
In my confession to the steam world I hope to justify it's removal.2 -
LOL it looks good, but @$2.20/lb it would be better in my pocket.0

We had one fail a few years ago. About the biggest one I have ever seen in a water treatment plant. The boilers were steam because they used it for process and the building was heated by hot water.
The condensate tank was overflowing with water because the hx had failed.
The shell on this thing was 20" in diameter and probably 10' long and was built by a mfg no longer in business.
We removed the complete hx as a unit and sent it to an ASME repair shop in Connecticut. They pulled the bundle, made a new one and installed it in the shell and we reinstalled it.
Unfortunately we didn't get the scrap on that one either!!0
