This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 4" suction and 3" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump is constructed with a cast iron casing, a 7-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller, and a stainless steel shaft equipped with a bronze shaft sleeve. The dry shaft design prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. A mechanical seal is used, featuring a silicon-carbide seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation in clean water at temperatures up to 250 °F.
The unit is powered by a 20 HP, 3450 RPM Baldor motor in an ODP enclosure on a NEMA 254 T frame. It operates on a 230-460/60/3 PH power supply with an across-the-line starting option. The assembly is mounted on a welded base that includes an integral drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard using a Woods coupler. This pump features AEGIS shaft grounding and meets NEMA MG1-12.55 premium efficiency standards. The DOE PEI for this pump is 0.91.
