This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents circulating fluid from contacting the stainless steel shaft and stainless steel shaft sleeve, rated for 125 PSI without a wear ring. A mechanical seal incorporating tungsten carbide seat faces and EPT elastomer components manages fluid containment. Integrally cast mounting feet provide structural support for the casing.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding on a 200-230V 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.44. 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.
