This close-coupled end suction pump integrates a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and bronze shaft sleeve. It utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the pump shaft. A mechanical seal incorporating a ceramic seat and EPT rubber ensures integrity during operation. The assembly includes flush seal line taps to facilitate filter installation for protection against particles, along with pressure tappings provided on suction and discharge connections for system monitoring.
The 3 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and incorporates Aegis grounding, powered by a 380-460V / 3PH supply. 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 and holds an enclosure NEMA 3R / IP 64 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
