This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft covered by a bronze shaft sleeve. The dry shaft mechanical design incorporates EPT rubber and a ceramic seat half, allowing for operation at pressures up to 125 PSI without a wear ring. This assembly includes integrally cast mounting feet to facilitate secure installation.
The 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM, integrates Aegis grounding, and receives power via a 200-230V, 3PH supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.5. 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.
