This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet. The hydraulic assembly utilizes a bronze impeller and a bronze shaft sleeve paired with a stainless steel shaft. Engineering specifications include a mechanical seal with a silicon-carbide seat and EPT rubber. This dry shaft design prevents circulating fluid from contacting the shaft and supports operation at pressures up to 125 PSI. An internal wear ring maintains system integrity within the volute casing.
The 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding, powered by a 380-460V 3PH electrical 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 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.
