This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and an integrally cast mounting feet design. It utilizes a bronze impeller and a bronze shaft sleeve paired with a stainless steel shaft. The pump incorporates a dry shaft mechanical seal design with ceramic seat and EPT rubber components. Engineered for a 125 PSI pressure rating, the casing includes standard pressure tappings for suction and discharge connections. The assembly features a center-line discharge for air venting and employs heavy-duty permanently lubricated sealed-for-life bearings within the bearing housing to support operation.
The 30 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and incorporates Aegis grounding, functioning on a 200-230V / 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. The 'S' in the SFI 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 12 / IP 55 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
