This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with center-line discharge and an integrally balanced bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a dry shaft design, which integrates a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve to prevent fluid contact. Sealing is managed by a ceramic seat half and EPT rubber mechanical seal rated for a maximum pressure of 125 PSI. This configuration allows for servicing the mechanical components without disturbing the system piping.
The 15 HP Premium Efficiency ODP motor operates at 3450 RPM and includes Aegis grounding, powered by a 200-230V, 3PH supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.45. 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
