This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 4" suction and 3" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The unit includes a 9-1/2" nominal impeller diameter constructed of bronze, housed within a cast iron casing. It utilizes a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design to prevent fluid contact with the shaft. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for a maximum temperature of 250°F. The bearing frame features permanently lubricated sealed-for-life ball bearings and includes pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections.
This pump is driven by a 5 HP, 1150 RPM motor in a NEMA 215T frame with an ODP enclosure and a premium efficiency rating. The Baldor motor is configured for 230-460V/3PH power supply. The assembly is mounted on a welded base that incorporates an integral drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. A Woods coupler facilitates the connection between the pump and the motor. The system supports across the line starting and includes AEGIS shaft grounding.
