Q: What are its typical applications?
A: Ideal for use in radiant heating systems, hydronic heating, and domestic hot water recirculation systems.

Maintenance Tips

• Self-Lubricating Design: The Taco 00R-SF6-IFC circulator features a self-lubricating mechanism with no mechanical seal, reducing maintenance needs.

• Replaceable Cartridge: All moving parts are housed within a replaceable cartridge, allowing for straightforward servicing without replacing the entire unit.

• Electrical Safety: Always disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance to prevent electrical shock.

• Proper Installation: Ensure the pump is installed with the motor in a horizontal position. If mounted vertically, the system's cold fill pressure should be at least 20 psi to ensure proper air purging and prevent flashing.

• System Flushing: Before operating the circulator, fill the system with tap water or a maximum 50% glycol/water mix. Operate the circulator for 5 minutes at full speed immediately after flushing to purge remaining air from the cartridge.

• Routine Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and fasteners for tightness, inspect the ignition system, and ensure the cooling system is functioning properly.

• Operating Conditions: The pump is designed for indoor use with a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi and a temperature range of 40°F to 230°F.

• Avoid Dry Operation: The bearings are water-lubricated; operating the pump dry can cause damage.

• Use Appropriate Fluids: Only use water or a maximum of 50% glycol/water mix. The addition of petroleum-based fluids or certain chemical additives can void the warranty.

• Air Purging: After installation, operate the circulator for 5 minutes at full speed to purge remaining air from the cartridge.
