This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The pump integrates a stainless steel shaft paired with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve, which prevents fluid contact with the shaft via a dry shaft design. Mechanical sealing is provided by a ceramic seat with EPT rubber components, capable of handling operating temperatures up to 250°F. This assembly is rated for 125 PSI system pressure and incorporates flush seal line taps to facilitate the installation of a filter for particle protection.
The 40 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 3450 RPM and incorporates Aegis grounding, while utilizing a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.47. 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.
