This base-mounted end suction pump utilizes a class 30 cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a bronze impeller. The pump incorporates a dry shaft design to prevent the circulating fluid from contacting the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. For fluid containment, a mechanical seal with a ceramic seat and EPT rubber is utilized. The construction supports a pressure rating of 125 PSI without the use of a wear ring and provides pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections.
Power is provided by a 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 3450 RPM, equipped with Aegis grounding and rated for 380-460V / 3PH power supply with a DOE PEI rating of 0.43. 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.
