This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a class 30 cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a hydraulically balanced bronze impeller. It utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the stainless steel shaft, further protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. The mechanical seal consists of an EPT elastomer and a ceramic seat, providing a pressure rating of 125 PSI. Standard gauge ports located at the suction and discharge connections allow for pressure monitoring during operation.
This assembly utilizes a 5 HP premium efficiency PMAC motor in a TEFC enclosure, operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding on 380-460V 3PH power, achieving a DOE PEI rating of 0.47. The 'S' in the SCI series denotes Taco's advanced Self-Sensing technology, which eliminates remote sensors and field wiring by using internal mathematical algorithms to calculate system resistance and automate variable flow. The included VFD is configured with a fused disconnect without bypass and holds an enclosure NEMA 12 / IP 55 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
