This close-coupled end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the shaft and the circulating fluid. A ceramic seat half paired with EPT rubber elements ensures sealing integrity, with the pump rated for a pressure of 125 PSI without a wear ring. This configuration incorporates flush seal line taps to facilitate the installation of external filtration, while suction and discharge connections integrate pressure tappings for system monitoring.
Powered by a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 3450 RPM, the pump utilizes Aegis grounding and accepts a 380-460V 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.48. The 'S' in the SCI 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.
