This base-mounted end suction pump incorporates a cast iron casing with integrally cast mounting feet and a center-line discharge for air venting. The unit utilizes a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft paired with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. This dry shaft design prevents contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft to minimize corrosion. The mechanical seal assembly consists of a ceramic seat and EPT rubber, providing a design pressure rating of 125 PSI. Suction and discharge connections include pressure tappings for system monitoring.
The assembly utilizes a 15 HP Premium Efficiency TEFC motor operating at 1750 RPM, equipped with Aegis grounding and a 380-460V 3PH power supply, resulting in a DOE PEI rating of 0.46. 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.
