This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft. A replaceable bronze shaft sleeve protects the shaft, while the dry shaft design prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. The assembly incorporates a ceramic and EPT mechanical seal system, which is rated for 125 PSI operation. Pressure tappings are integrated into the suction and discharge connections to facilitate system monitoring.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding and a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. 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.
