This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing, a stainless steel impeller, and a stainless steel shaft. It incorporates a bronze shaft sleeve and utilizes a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. A ceramic mechanical seal with EPT rubber components handles temperatures up to 250°F. The pump casing provides a 125 PSI pressure rating and integrates gauge ports at both the suction and discharge connections for monitoring.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 3450 RPM and incorporates Aegis grounding, powered by a 380-460V 3PH supply, achieving a DOE PEI rating of 0.45. The "S" in the SFI 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.
