This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that eliminates circulating fluid contact with the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. A mechanical seal utilizes a ceramic seat half and EPT rubber components. This pump is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 125 PSI.
The motor operates at 30 HP with a premium efficiency rating, a TEFC enclosure, a speed of 3450 RPM, and an Aegis grounding ring, powered by a 380-460V / 3PH supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. 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 4X / IP 66 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
