This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 10" suction and 8" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The assembly includes a cast iron casing, a bronze impeller with a 13-1/2" nominal diameter, and a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. It utilizes a mechanical seal containing a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation at temperatures up to 250 °F. The pump design incorporates pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections and employs a dry shaft configuration to prevent contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft.

The motor meets premium efficiency standards per MG1-12.55 and includes an AEGIS SGR and an insulated bearing on the NDE. The assembly is mounted on a welded base with an integral drip pan and utilizes a Woods coupler protected by an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. This pump maintains a PEI value of 0.94.
