This close-coupled end suction pump utilizes a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller to facilitate fluid transfer. The assembly incorporates a bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the shaft and the circulating fluid, supporting operation at pressures up to 125 PSI. A mechanical seal integrates a ceramic seat half and EPT rubber to maintain system integrity.
The pump operates with a 3 HP premium efficiency ODP motor at 1750 RPM and incorporates Aegis grounding, power supply of 380-460V / 3PH, and a DOE PEI rating of 0.49. The 'S' in the SCI 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.
