This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. It integrates a stainless steel shaft paired with a bronze shaft sleeve, utilizing a dry shaft design that prevents contact between the shaft and the circulating fluid. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat with EPT rubber elements. Pressure tappings are located on both the suction and discharge connections for monitoring system performance. The pump handles pressure up to 125 PSI without a wear ring.
This assembly integrates a 5 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding, powered by 208V / 3PH electricity, and possesses a DOE PEI rating of 0.44. 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.
