This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features an 8" suction connection and a 6" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump includes a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller housed within a cast iron casing. It uses a stainless steel shaft paired with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. A mechanical seal with a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber components provides fluid containment at temperatures up to 250°F. The unit incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft.

The assembly is mounted on a welded base that includes an integral drip pan and a standard coupler guard. The bearing frame uses greasable bearings. The motor meets NEMA Premium Efficiency standards per MG1-12.55 and includes AEGIS shaft grounding.
