This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with an integrally cast mounting feet design and a stainless steel impeller. Engineered with a dry shaft construction, the assembly separates the stainless steel shaft from the circulating fluid through a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. This configuration utilizes a mechanical seal comprising ceramic seat half components and EPT rubber, supporting a pressure rating of 125 PSI. The pump maintains hydraulic balance and provides pressure tappings on both the suction and discharge connections to monitor system performance.
Operating with a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor at 3450 RPM, the assembly integrates Aegis grounding and utilizes a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, yielding 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.
