This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a cast iron casing with center-line discharge and a bronze impeller. The assembly integrates a stainless steel shaft covered by a bronze shaft sleeve, utilizing a dry shaft design that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft. A ceramic and EPT mechanical seal regulates fluid containment within the unit, which operates at a pressure limit of 125 PSI. This pump provides positive air venting through its casing design and is engineered for hydraulic balance to ensure stable performance.
This unit utilizes a 15 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM, which incorporates Aegis grounding and utilizes a 200-230V / 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. The S in the SFI 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.
