This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design, which protects the stainless steel shaft by isolating it from the circulating fluid, complemented by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat and EPT rubber, engineered to handle pressure up to 125 PSI. This unit provides hydraulic performance through a center-line discharge casing, which allows for positive air venting and provides connections for suction and discharge pressure measurement.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding, powered by a 200-230V 3PH electrical supply, resulting in a DOE PEI of 0.46. The 'S' in the SCI 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.
