Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps

Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps

Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps are manufactured to meet the latest industry standards for hydraulic performance and reliability. These Taco series have permanently lubricated cartridge centrifugal pumps. The pump is specifically designed for applications that require more GPM flow with larger feet of the head for commercial setups. They are quiet, dependable and high on performance and off course; it is backed by world-class designing and expertise of Taco Inc. The Taco Inc. has been manufacturing heating and cooling equipments for more than 8 decades.

The Taco “1600” Series In-Line pumps are launched in 15 models ranging in size from 1 1/2” X ½” to 2”X 2” with a flow range from 10 to 235 GPM and Head capacities up to 68 feet. The pump utilizes an excellent combination of an exclusive replaceable and cooler running bearing cartridge design. This exclusive design isolates the bearing from the effects from system fluid temperatures which greatly influence the life of the bearing. The design of the cartridge includes a permanently sealed grease lubricated ball bearing making it almost maintenance free.

As standard procedure, all Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps are furnished with ceramic seals so that they can meet a wide range of application requirements. The mechanical seal has an ingeniously unitized design which combines all the components of the rotating element like-spring, retainer, bellows and carbon into one assembly making the seal replacement fast and simple.

The basic cartridge design simplifies the maintenance with the minimal parts requirements, on size cartridge and mechanical seal to service the whole product line. Let us now discuss some of the prominent features along with their benefits-

  • Rear pull out layout allows servicing of the pump without concerning the piping.
  • The “1600” series has maximum operating pressure of 175psi and maximum operating temperature of 300 degree Fahrenheit’s.
  • The series is available in cast iron bronze fitted construction or all bronze construction.
  • The disposable “cooler running” bearing cartridge enhances the life of the bearing and permanently greased lubricated ball bearings make it virtually a zero- maintenance product.
  • The Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps are exceptionally quiet and have smooth running resilient mounted motors.
  • The flexible coupler absorbs shock, vibration and misalignment that transferred to the cartridge and the motor bearing while also disconnecting and preventing any motor related noise or vibrations from being transmitted to the whole system.
  • The ¼ of the NPT thrust tapings on the suction and discharge connections.
  • The standard ceramic seal meets the demands of a wide range of application requirements, and the innovative unitized design enables quick and easy replacement.
  • The replaceable corrosion opposing shaft sleeve includes a “built in” slinger to deflect water away from the bearing cartridge in the case there is any seal leakage.
  • The Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps also include companion flanges.
  • There is one piece enclosed Impeller which is designed to dynamically balanced cast bronze impeller assures long life and higher pumps efficiency.
  • All the “1600” series pumps are factory tested and are manufactured according to the Hydraulic Institute standard.

The Taco Series 1600 Centrifugal Pumps are surely the most advanced pumps manufactured by the Taco Inc. They are loaded with features to make them more user-friendly and efficient.
