This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a cast iron casing with 8" suction and 6" discharge ports and ANSI Class 125 flanges. It uses a 9-1/2" nominal diameter bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. The pump incorporates a mechanical seal with a silicon-carbide seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, which is rated for clean water applications up to 250°F. The dry shaft design prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft.
This unit operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 25 HP, 230-460V/60Hz/3PH Baldor motor in an ODP enclosure with a 284T frame. The assembly is mounted on a welded base with an integrated drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. It features across-the-line starting and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The motor meets NEMA Premium Efficiency standards per MG1-12.55, and the pump has a DOE PEI value of 0.94.
