This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 6" suction port and a 5" discharge port with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump utilizes a cast iron casing and a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller. It incorporates a dry shaft design with a stainless steel shaft and shaft sleeve to prevent fluid contact with the internal shaft. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, providing a temperature rating of 250°F. The casing includes gauge ports for suction and discharge connections, and the internal components allow for servicing without requiring the removal of system piping.
