This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing with an integrally cast mounting design and a bronze impeller. The assembly incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents fluid contact with the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. For fluid sealing, the unit utilizes a mechanical seal composed of ceramic and EPT components. The pump configuration supports an operating pressure of 125 PSI.
The pump utilizes a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis shaft grounding, powered by a 200-230V 3PH 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.
