This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a class 30 cast iron casing with center-line discharge and integrally cast mounting feet. The assembly utilizes a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. Through the integration of a dry shaft design, the pump prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft. A ceramic and EPT mechanical seal supports operational pressures up to 125 PSI.
The pump operates with a 15 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding on 380-460V / 3PH power. The DOE PEI rating is 0.45. The 'S' in the SFI 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.
