This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and features integrally cast mounting feet. It utilizes a bronze impeller hydraulically balanced and fitted to a stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a dry shaft design to prevent contact with the circulating fluid. A replaceable bronze shaft sleeve assists in maintenance, while the mechanical seal incorporates ceramic and EPT materials rated for operation at 250°F. The assembly is engineered for a working pressure of 125 PSI and integrates pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections to facilitate system monitoring.
Powered by a 5 HP premium efficiency ODP motor operating at 1750 RPM, the assembly integrates Aegis grounding and utilizes a 380-460V 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.5. 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 a fused disconnect without bypass and holds an enclosure NEMA 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
