This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. A mechanical seal utilizes a ceramic seat and EPT rubber to prevent leakage at pressures up to 125 PSI. This configuration integrates center-line discharge for positive air venting and provides an efficient hydraulic path for fluid transport in various system environments.
The motor is a 3 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC unit operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis Grounding and a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.47. 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 12 / IP 55 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
