This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a stainless steel shaft paired with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve, facilitating maintenance through a dry shaft design that prevents circulating fluid from contacting the shaft. A mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat and EPT rubber, providing a 125 PSI rating without a wear ring. Suction and discharge connections integrate pressure tappings, and the pump incorporates flush seal line taps to allow for filter installation.
Powered by a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM, the assembly incorporates Aegis grounding and utilizes a 200-230V / 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.45. 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.
