This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with a center-line discharge and integrally cast mounting feet. The assembly utilizes a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. Engineered with a dry shaft design, the unit prevents circulating fluid from contacting the shaft. The mechanical seal incorporates silicon-carbide seat halves and EPT rubber, providing a 125 PSI operating pressure capacity. A bronze wear ring acts as a replaceable component within the casing to maintain hydraulic performance.
This pump integrates a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding and a 200-230V, 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.5. 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.
