This close-coupled end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller to facilitate fluid transfer. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the pump shaft, while a bronze shaft sleeve provides protection. Internal construction includes a mechanical seal comprised of a ceramic seat half and EPT rubber. This pump maintains operational integrity at pressures up to 125 PSI without a wear ring.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding and a 200-230V / 3PH power supply, achieving a DOE PEI rating of 0.44. 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.
