This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features an 8" suction and 6" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump assembly consists of a cast iron casing, a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller, a stainless steel shaft, and a bronze shaft sleeve. It includes a bronze wear ring to maintain hydraulic performance. The mechanical seal uses a ceramic seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation at temperatures up to 250°F. The unit utilizes a dry shaft design to prevent contact between the pumped fluid and the shaft.
This model operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 60 HP WEG motor with an ODP enclosure and a 364T NEMA frame. The electrical configuration supports 230-460V/60Hz/3PH power and utilizes across-the-line starting. The motor meets NEMA Premium Efficiency MG1-12.55 standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly is mounted on a welded base that incorporates a drip pan and features a Woods coupler with a standard coupler guard. This pump achieves a DOE PEI of 0.93.
