This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 4" suction and a 3" discharge. The unit includes a 13-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller, a cast iron casing, and a stainless steel shaft with a bronze shaft sleeve. It uses a mechanical seal consisting of a silicon-carbide seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation up to 250°F in clean water applications. The pump design utilizes ANSI Class 125 flanges and a dry shaft configuration that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft.
The pump operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 25 HP Baldor motor with an ODP enclosure and a 284T frame. It is configured for a 230-460V, 60Hz, 3PH power supply with across-the-line starting. This unit meets NEMA Premium Efficiency standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly uses a welded base with an integrated drip pan, a Woods coupler, and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. The pump features greasable bearings and is rated for a 40°C ambient environment, with a DOE PEI value of 0.9.
