This Taco CI Series close-coupled end suction pump features a 3" suction and 2-1/2" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. It uses an 11" nominal impeller diameter, a cast iron casing, a bronze impeller, and a bronze wear ring. The unit incorporates a slip-on shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that prevents the shaft from contacting the circulating fluid. A mechanical seal consisting of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber operates at temperatures up to 250°F. The pump assembly includes flush seal line taps and pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections. The rear pullout design allows for servicing without disconnecting system piping, while the top center line discharge simplifies venting.
