This Taco CI Series close coupled end suction pump features a 2-1/2" suction connection and a 1-1/2" discharge connection with ANSI class 250 flanges. The pump utilizes a 9-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller housed within a cast iron casing. It incorporates a dry shaft design with a replaceable, slip-on bronze shaft sleeve that prevents contact between the shaft and circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation up to 250 °F. Integrated flush seal line taps allow for the installation of a filter, and pressure tappings are provided on both suction and discharge connections. A rear pullout design permits servicing without disconnecting system piping.
The pump operates at 3450 RPM and is driven by a 25 HP Baldor motor. The motor features an ODP enclosure, a JM frame style with feet, and AEGIS shaft grounding. The electrical configuration is 230-460V/60Hz/3PH with an across-the-line starting option. This motor meets NEMA standards and is rated for a 40 °C ambient environment with CCW rotation. The unit maintains a DOE PEI value of 0.87.
