This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that utilizes a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. To maintain internal fluid integrity, the unit integrates a ceramic and EPT mechanical seal. This pump maintains a pressure rating of 125 PSI and utilizes a center-line discharge configuration for air venting. The design includes integrally cast mounting feet to facilitate structural stability.
The system is powered by a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM, which integrates Aegis grounding and utilizes a 380-460V / 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.
