This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with center-line discharge and integrally cast mounting feet. The rotating assembly utilizes a bronze impeller dynamically balanced to ANSI Grade G6.3 and a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. This dry shaft design eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat and EPT rubber, rated for 125 PSI operation. Pressure tappings are provided on both suction and discharge connections for monitoring system performance.
The 5 HP Premium Efficiency ODP motor operates at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding and is powered by a 200-230V 3PH electrical supply, resulting in 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
