This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 4" suction port and a 3" discharge port with ANSI Class 125 flanges. It uses an 11" nominal impeller diameter constructed of bronze, housed within a cast iron casing. The assembly incorporates a stainless steel shaft with a bronze shaft sleeve and a mechanical seal composed of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for temperatures up to 250°F. The unit utilizes a dry shaft design and is equipped with AEGIS shaft grounding.
The pump operates at 1150 RPM and is driven by a 5 HP, 230-460V, 3PH WEG motor in a 215T NEMA frame with an ODP enclosure. This motor meets MG1-12.55 premium efficiency standards. The pump connects to the motor through a Woods coupler, which is protected by an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. The entire assembly is mounted on a welded base that includes an integrated drip pan, and the bearing frame utilizes greasable bearings.
