This base-mounted end suction pump consists of a cast iron casing with a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft equipped with a bronze shaft sleeve. This assembly utilizes a dry shaft design, which isolates the shaft from the circulating fluid to mitigate corrosion. A mechanical seal constructed with a ceramic seat and EPT rubber ensures system integrity at pressures up to 125 PSI. The unit incorporates center-line discharge for positive air venting and is constructed with integrally cast mounting feet to facilitate installation.
The assembly integrates a 30 HP Premium Efficiency ODP motor operating at 1750 RPM with Aegis grounding and a 380-460V / 3PH power supply, yielding 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 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
