This Taco CI Series close-coupled end suction pump features an 8" suction connection and a 6" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump includes an 11" nominal diameter bronze impeller housed within a cast iron casing. It utilizes a bronze shaft sleeve and a mechanical seal configured with a tungsten carbide seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, capable of handling clean water up to 300 °F. The dry shaft design prevents contact between the system fluid and the shaft, while the rear pullout construction allows for maintenance without disturbing the piping. Flush seal line taps are provided for optional filter installation, and the top center line discharge configuration assists in system venting.
