This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 6" suction connection and 5" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump is constructed with a cast iron casing, a bronze impeller with a 13-1/2" nominal diameter, and a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. It includes a bronze wear ring and a mechanical seal composed of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250 °F. The pump uses a dry shaft design that isolates the shaft from circulating fluids to prevent contact during operation.
The pump operates at 1150 RPM and is driven by a 15 HP premium efficiency Baldor motor with an ODP enclosure and a 284T NEMA frame. It is configured for 230-460/60/3 PH power with an across-the-line starting option. The assembly is mounted on a welded base with an integrated drip pan and uses a Woods coupler with a standard coupler guard. The motor complies with NEMA MG1-12.55 standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. Pressure tappings are provided on the suction and discharge connections for system monitoring.
