This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a 1-1/2" suction and a 1-1/4" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The unit includes a 9-1/2" nominal impeller diameter constructed of bronze with a bronze wear ring. The cast iron casing houses a stainless steel shaft equipped with a bronze shaft sleeve. The pump utilizes a mechanical seal with a silicon-carbide seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, providing a temperature rating of 250°F for clean water applications. It uses a dry shaft design that eliminates contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft.
