This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with center-line discharge and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a stainless steel shaft paired with a bronze shaft sleeve, facilitating maintenance through a dry shaft design that prevents fluid contact with the internal rotating components. It is constructed with a ceramic and EPT mechanical seal to manage operation at pressures up to 125 PSI without a wear ring.
This unit utilizes a 10 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor, which operates at 3450 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding for protection, powered by 380-460V / 3PH electricity, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.47. The 'S' in the SFI 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 4X / IP 66 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
