This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a cast iron casing with 3" suction and 2-1/2" discharge ANSI Class 125 flanges. It utilizes a 6-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft equipped with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. The internal pump components include a mechanical seal constructed with a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation at temperatures up to 250°F. The unit is built with a dry shaft design to prevent the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft during operation.
The pump operates at 1750 RPM and is driven by a 1 HP, 230-460/60/3PH Baldor motor in a NEMA 143 T-frame with an ODP enclosure. The motor meets NEMA premium efficiency standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly is mounted on a welded base with an integral drip pan and features a Woods coupler protected by a coupler guard. This system supports across-the-line starting and has a DOE PEI rating of 0.87.
