This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft. It incorporates a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that protects the shaft from contact with the circulating fluid, supporting operation at 125 PSI. The pump utilizes a ceramic and EPT mechanical seal to manage fluid containment. The volute includes pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections for system monitoring.
Powered by a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor, the assembly operates at 1750 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding on a 380-460V 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI of 0.5. 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.
