This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 5" suction and 4" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump is constructed with a cast iron casing, a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller, and a stainless steel shaft equipped with a bronze shaft sleeve. The mechanical seal consists of a silicon-carbide seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation in clean water at temperatures up to 250°F. The pump utilizes a dry shaft design to prevent contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft, and includes pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections.
This pump operates at 1750 RPM and is driven by a 20 HP Baldor T frame motor with an ODP enclosure. It is configured for 230-460/60/3 power with across the line starting. The assembly is mounted on a welded base with a drip pan, an OSHA, and a Woods coupler. The motor utilizes AEGIS shaft grounding and meets NEMA premium efficiency MG1-12.55 standards.
