This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 2-1/2" suction connection and a 1-1/2" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump includes a 6-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft with a bronze shaft sleeve. The casing is constructed of cast iron. The mechanical seal assembly consists of a ceramic seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, supporting operation up to 250°F. The pump design utilizes a dry shaft configuration that prevents the circulating fluid from coming into contact with the shaft.
