This end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller to facilitate hydraulic movement. It incorporates a stainless steel shaft paired with a bronze shaft sleeve, utilizing a dry shaft design to prevent contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft. The assembly integrates a ceramic and EPT mechanical seal system, operating at a maximum pressure of 125 PSI. This construction allows for servicing the internal components without disrupting the connected piping system.
The 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operates at 1750 RPM and integrates Aegis grounding, drawing 380-460V / 3PH power, achieving a DOE PEI rating of 0.44. 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.
