This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a bronze shaft sleeve and a stainless steel shaft to maintain a dry shaft design, which prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the internal shaft. A silicon-carbide mechanical seal with EPT rubber provides fluid containment at pressures up to 125 PSI. This pump is engineered for serviceability without disturbing system piping connections.
Powered by a 7.5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM, the assembly integrates Aegis shaft grounding and a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, achieving a DOE PEI rating of 0.45. 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.
