This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a bronze shaft sleeve on a stainless steel shaft. The assembly utilizes a ceramic mechanical seal with EPT rubber components to ensure fluid containment. A dry shaft design prevents circulating fluid from contacting the internal shaft, supporting pressure ratings up to 125 PSI without a wear ring. The pump includes a center-line discharge for air venting and provides suction and discharge gauge ports for system monitoring.
The pump operates with a 10 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor at 3450 RPM, utilizing Aegis shaft grounding and a 230V 3PH power supply, achieving a DOE PEI 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 an electro-mechanical bypass, a main disconnect with 5kA SCCR, drive fusing, and holds an enclosure NEMA 12 / IP 55 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
