This close-coupled end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a bronze shaft sleeve. It utilizes a mechanical seal constructed with a ceramic seat and EPT rubber. The dry shaft design eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the pump shaft, supporting a 125 PSI pressure rating. Pressure tappings are integrated into the suction and discharge connections to facilitate system monitoring.
The pump utilizes a 15 HP premium efficiency ODP motor operating at 3450 RPM with Aegis grounding, powered by a 380-460V 3PH supply with a DOE PEI 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
