This centrifugal end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing with center-line discharge for air venting. The unit incorporates a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve, which prevents fluid contact with the shaft through a dry shaft design. Rated for a maximum pressure of 125 PSI, the pump assembly integrates a mechanical seal constructed with ceramic seat halves and EPT rubber. Integral mounting feet are cast into the volute to facilitate installation.
The assembly utilizes a 20 HP premium efficiency motor with an ODP enclosure operating at 1750 RPM. This motor incorporates Aegis grounding and accepts a 200-230V / 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
