This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features an 8" suction and 6" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. It uses a 9-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a cast iron casing with a bronze wear ring. The pump includes a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that prevents fluid contact with the shaft. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250°F. The bearing frame houses greasable bearings.
This unit is powered by a 7-1/2 HP Baldor TEFC motor in a NEMA 254T frame. It operates at 1150 RPM on a 230-460/60/3 PH power supply and utilizes across the line starting. The pump is mounted on a welded base that includes an integral drip pan. A standard Woods flexible coupler connects the pump to the motor, and the assembly is enclosed by an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. The motor meets NEMA premium efficiency standards.
