This Taco CI Series close coupled end suction pump features a cast iron casing and cover with a stainless steel impeller and a bronze wear ring. It includes 3" suction and 2-1/2" discharge connections with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump utilizes a 7-1/4" nominal diameter impeller and a dry shaft design with an easy-to-replace, slip-on bronze shaft sleeve to isolate the shaft from circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, suitable for operation up to 250°F. The unit includes flush seal line taps and pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections. The rear pullout design allows for servicing without disturbing the system piping.
