This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 4" suction and a 3" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump is constructed with a cast iron casing, a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller, and a stainless steel shaft equipped with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. It utilizes a mechanical seal containing a ceramic seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250°F. The unit incorporates a dry shaft design to prevent contact between the circulating fluid and the pump shaft. Pressure tappings are included on both the suction and discharge connections for system monitoring.
The pump operates at 1150 RPM and is powered by a 15 HP Baldor motor in a 284T NEMA frame. It features an ODP enclosure and is configured for 230-460V/60/3PH power supply. The motor meets premium efficiency standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly is mounted on a welded base that incorporates a drip pan and a Woods coupler, protected by a standard coupler guard. This configuration uses across-the-line starting and is rated for a 40°C ambient environment.
