This close-coupled end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller to handle fluid transfer applications. The assembly utilizes a bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft, maintaining mechanical integrity at pressures up to 125 PSI. Sealing is accomplished through a mechanical seal comprised of a ceramic seat and EPT rubber. The design includes flush seal line taps for the installation of an external filter, and integrated pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections allow for consistent monitoring of system conditions.
The pump operates with a 15 HP premium efficiency ODP motor at 1750 RPM, which integrates Aegis grounding and accepts a 200-230V 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
