This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 6" suction and a 5" discharge. The unit includes a 13-1/2" nominal diameter stainless steel impeller and a cast iron casing with ANSI Class 125 flanges and a bronze wear ring. The design uses a stainless steel shaft equipped with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft configuration. The mechanical seal assembly consists of a silicon-carbide seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, suitable for operation in clean water at temperatures up to 250°F.
The pump operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 60 HP Baldor motor with an ODP enclosure and a NEMA 364 T frame. It connects to a 230-460V/60Hz/3PH power supply using an across-the-line starting method. The assembly is rated for a 40°C ambient temperature and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The motor meets MG1-12.55 premium efficiency standards, and the pump maintains a PEI of 0.93. It is mounted on a welded base with an integrated drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. The pump utilizes a Woods coupler for the connection between the pump and the motor.
