This Taco CI Series close-coupled end suction pump features a 3" suction and a 2-1/2" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. It utilizes a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a cast iron casing with a bronze wear ring. The pump includes a bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that prevents contact with the circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation up to 250 °F. Flush seal line taps are provided for filter installation, and the rear pullout design allows for servicing without disturbing the system piping. The top center line discharge configuration supports self-venting and reduces piping strain.
