This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 2-1/2" suction connection and a 1-1/2" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump includes a cast iron casing and a 7-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller. It is constructed with a stainless steel shaft and a bronze shaft sleeve. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250 °F. This pump utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the shaft and the circulating fluid. Pressure tappings are located at the suction and discharge connections, and the unit includes flush seal line taps.
The pump operates at 1750 RPM and is configured with a NEMA 182 T frame motor at 60Hz. It is mounted on a welded base that includes an integrated drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard for the included Woods coupler. This assembly uses sealed-for-life ball bearings and has a pump efficiency index (PEI) of 0.85. The pump allows for service without the need to disturb system piping connections.
