This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 2-1/2" suction connection and a 2" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The assembly includes a 7-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. The cast iron casing is constructed without a wear ring. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, and is rated for operation at temperatures up to 250 °F. The pump design utilizes a dry shaft that prevents circulating fluid from contacting the shaft during operation.
