This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve, employing a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. A ceramic mechanical seal with EPT rubber components facilitates operation at pressures up to 125 PSI. This pump is engineered to allow maintenance without disturbing the system piping.
The 5 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding. Power supply requirements are 380-460V / 3PH, and the unit holds a DOE PEI rating of 0.47. 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.
