This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the stainless steel shaft and stainless steel shaft sleeve, thereby maintaining structural integrity. A ceramic and EPT mechanical seal is utilized within the pump, which is rated for 125 PSI and includes a wear ring. Pressure tappings at the suction and discharge connections allow for monitoring during operation.
The 40 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM, utilizes Aegis Grounding, and connects to a 380-460V / 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.
