This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 2-1/2" suction connection and a 2" discharge connection with ANSI Class 125 flanges. It uses a 9-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a cast iron casing with an integrated bronze wear ring. The assembly includes a stainless steel shaft equipped with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. The mechanical seal is constructed with a Ni-Resist seat, a carbon rotor, and Buna rubber components, rated for operation at temperatures up to 225°F.
This pump operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 7-1/2 HP Baldor ODP motor in a NEMA 213T frame. The motor is configured for a 230-460V/60Hz/3PH power supply and meets premium efficiency standards per MG1-12.55, including AEGIS shaft grounding. The pump is mounted on a welded base with an integrated drip pan and uses a Woods coupler with a standard guard. The unit supports across-the-line starting and carries a DOE PEI rating of 0.86.
