This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a class 30 cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents circulating fluid from contacting the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. This mechanical seal configuration utilizes ceramic and EPT materials rated for operation at 125 PSI. The bearing frame houses permanently lubricated, sealed-for-life ball bearings to support continuous operation.
Powered by a 5 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC PMAC motor operating at 1750 RPM, the assembly integrates Aegis grounding for protection and operates on a 200-230V / 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.44. 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 mechanical 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.
