There are certain elemental features and design aspects about the Taco 006 Bronze Circulator Pump that make it a high performance, highly efficient system.

Typical Features

These pumps come along with a high capacity of output and have a very neat and compact design. The pumps also operate with great efficiency and without making noise. Hence such pumps are best suited for areas that need jobs with high efficiency and no sound. The 006-B4 Taco consumes very little amount of power, which translates into low costs as far as maintenance is concerned. The presence of a replaceable cartridge in the Taco 006-B4 Bronze Circulator Pump means that instead of replacing the whole pump, only the cartridge needs replacement, thereby saving on maintenance. In addition, the sturdy bronze casing along with threaded, union or sweat connections translates into better performance as well as higher durability.

High Performance

The self lubricating mechanism within the Taco 006 Bronze Circulator Pump means that the overall performance provided by the pump is smoother compared to others in its class. In addition, the absence of any mechanical seal also translates into longer lasting performance. The Stator Housing is made of steel while the cartridge is made out of stainless steel. The impeller is not metallic while the shaft is made of ceramic and bearings are made out of carbon. The gaskets and o-ring are made of EPDM. The average flow range of the 006-B4 Taco is between 0 and 10 GPM while the head range lies between 0 and 9 feet. The fluid temperature needs to be within a range of 40 to 220 degree Fahrenheit while the tolerable working pressure should be within 125 PSI.
