This Taco CI Series close-coupled end suction pump features a 3" suction and a 2-1/2" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump assembly includes a cast iron casing, a 6-1/4" bronze impeller, and a bronze wear ring. It utilizes a dry shaft design with a slip-on bronze shaft sleeve to protect the shaft from contact with circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation at temperatures up to 250°F. The pump incorporates flush seal line taps, pressure tappings at the suction and discharge connections, and a rear pullout design to allow for service without removing system piping. The top center line discharge configuration facilitates self-venting.
