This base-mounted end suction pump comprises a class 30 cast iron casing and a bronze impeller. The assembly utilizes a dry shaft design that prevents circulating fluid from contacting the stainless steel shaft, which is protected by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. A mechanical seal consisting of ceramic and EPT materials maintains fluid containment. This pump maintains a pressure rating of 125 PSI without a wear ring.
The pump operates with a 5 HP premium efficiency TEFC motor at 1750 RPM, which integrates Aegis grounding and runs on a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, resulting in 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.
