This base-mounted end suction pump is constructed with a class 30 cast iron casing and integrally cast mounting feet. The assembly incorporates a bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft covered by a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve. Utilizing a dry shaft design, this unit prevents circulating fluid from contacting the shaft and is rated for 125 PSI. A mechanical seal with ceramic components and EPT rubber ensures fluid integrity, while the construction allows for servicing without disturbing system piping.
The pump utilizes a 15 HP premium efficiency ODP motor operating at 1750 RPM, which integrates Aegis grounding and operates with a 380-460V 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 Type 1 / IP 21 rating. The drive ships unmounted for customer wall installation without a bracket, harness, or vibration mounts.
