This close-coupled end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design with a bronze shaft sleeve to isolate the shaft from the circulating fluid. The mechanical seal utilizes a ceramic seat and EPT rubber, allowing the assembly to maintain a pressure rating of 125 PSI without a wear ring.
The pump operates on a 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor at 1750 RPM, which is constructed with Aegis grounding and a 380-460V 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.45. 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.
