This Taco CI Series close coupled end suction pump features a cast iron casing with a 3" suction and a 2-1/2" discharge, both utilizing ANSI Class 125 flanges without a wear ring. It is equipped with an 11" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a bronze shaft sleeve. The pump utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the shaft and the circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250°F. The unit includes flush seal line taps and pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections. The rear pullout design allows for servicing without disconnecting system piping.
This pump is configured with a 3 HP Baldor motor in a 213JM frame with feet, operating at 1150 RPM. It features a TEFC enclosure and operates on a 230-460V/60/3PH power supply with an across the line starting option. The motor meets NEMA standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly is rated for a 40°C ambient temperature. The discharge is positioned at the top center line to simplify piping layouts and support self-venting.
