​Taco 007e Circulating Pump- Evolve ECM High Efficiency Circulators

Taco 007e Circulating Pump- Evolve ECM High Efficiency Circulators

With a marked improvement in variable speed and efficiency, the Taco 007e is taking the legendary performance of the 007 series leaps further in to the future. It also continues the legacy of the 00 series that became famous for their convenient installation feature. The latest 007e ECM is equally easy to install and requires almost no hassles for continued maintenance.

USPs of the Taco 007e series

The 007e series is making waves in the market due to its consistency with prior series that have made a mark for themselves amongst satisfied customers. However, the new series is much more progressive with its own set of unique selling points.

  • 007e ECM performance is completely comparable to the 007 circulator making it a natural progression for customers.
  • The 007e series ECM motors are more developed to see up to 85% reduced usage of electricity to keep up with the same level of efficiency and power a previous motor series.
  • Taco 007e series circulators are the best combination bet for hydronic systems that are designed to be zoned with high efficiency circulators and zone valves.
  • The ECM pump of this series features the innovative BIO Barrier, which works to protect the pump from all types of contaminants accumulating in the system over time.
  • The pump also features the SureStart functionality. This allows the pump to self-purge itself of free air and the resulting locked rotors.
  • The pump is at the best of its consistent quality checks including the Integral Flow Check of IFC.

Main applications of the Taco 007e Series of ECM and circulators

  • 1.The ECM from Taco 007e series is ideal for use with hydronic baseboard systems. The circulator range helps in refined control and monitoring of functionality when used in combination with the hydronic systems. The high efficiency and reduced power usage of the circulators allow the work to continue at optimum progress while conserving energy bills.
  • The ease of wiring of the ECM circulators is propagated due to the 6” stranded wire leads. The system also comes with dual electrical options for knockouts to facilitate easier wiring.
  • Make sure to use the ECM with an original Taco ZVC (Zone Valve Control) to ensure there is no mismanagement of the arts. You can also use the SR or Switch Relay mechanism to better control the on/off operations of the entire system.
  • The ECM has a remarkable 10’ shut-off head.
  • The circulators allow max flow at 16 gpm
  • The optional 2-way flange design of the Taco 007e series allows for reduced SKUs. It also aids in a universal fit-up to match any kind of flange position.
  • The entire mechanism is double insulated to allow for maximum safety precautions. You also do not need to use any ground wires due to this safety feature.
  • The Taco 007e series has been designed to perform at the maximum efficiency on lower levels of energy while maintaining a whisper soft operation with no sound disturbances.
  • The system comes with apt LED indicators to let the users know about the perfect functioning of the mechanism. You have the Orange LED to indicate normal functioning of the circulator. You also have the SureStart LED to indicate smooth functioning of the feature for your 007e.
  • 2.You can use the TACO 007e circulators for setting up zoning designs with other circulators for increasing efficiency and output.
  • 3.You can also use the 007e circulators to create a series loop system with other zone valves to increase functionality and coverage area for the circulators performance.

Major specifications of the TACO 007e series of circulators and ECM

The specifications of the 007e series are comparable to the predecessors in the series line-up. However, the007e series is functionality on steroids due to its much improved base of specifications.

  • The max shut-off head for 007e is at 10 feet.
  • It allows about 16 gpm of max flow.
  • It functions at a max operating pressure of 125 psi.
  • The max water temp ideal for 007e functionality is 230 Fahrenheit
  • The minimum water temperature allowed is at 36 Fahrenheit
  • The ECM functions at a 120V, 60 HZ single phase with max operating power allowed at 44 w and max AMP rating counted at 0.54
  • The ECM design include a cast iron casing that is ideal for using during composition of closed loop systems
  • The TACO series circulator pumps have been designed solely for indoor use.
  • The circulators should be used only with water or at max with a 50% solution mixture of water and glycol.
  • There are two new models available. Taco 007e-F2 Circulating pump and the Taco 007e-F4 Circulating pump.

Major considerations when installing the TACO 007e series of ECM and circulators for your project

The two main considerations during the installation of the TACO 007e series circulators is the focus on:

Location – the circulator should always be installed on the supply side or the return side of the boiler. However, to make sure that the system continues to output the best performance make sure that the ECM pumps out in the opposite direction from the expansion tank.

Mounting Position – always ensure that the TACO 007e circulator is mounted in a direct horizontal position with the motorfor maximum output generation. The casing should be rotated at different angles to ensure that you have the best position for changing the flow directions. In addition, the electrical junction box should be positioned at a careful 9’0 clock with the circulator to ensure the most appropriate viewing position.

The major uses for the Taco 007e series circulators and CM

The TACO 007e series has been developed majorly for water circulation and heat transfer for both residential and light commercial applications. The sleek design and functional features of the circulators make them completely maintenance free so you can just install it and forget about it. Each feature within the product is handpicked to give increased functionality to your hot and chilled water circulation compositions. The applications of the TACO series circulators and ECM include heat recovery for residential buildings and light commercial set ups. It is apt for Domestic water recirculation for better performance of hot water distribution. The circulators also double as chilled water distributors or cooling systems for similar types of setups. The circulators are ideal for installations with a capable hyrdonic heating system for increased performance.

Some precautions to strictly maintain during installation of the TACO 007e series

You can add vibration dampeners to the piping during the mounting phase of the circulator to the wall or even to floor joists. This further reduces the noise transmission during the functioning of the ECM.

Make sure the circulator mechanism is always connected to a properly secure grounding-type receptacle to make sure there are no risks of electric shocks. All local electrical and plumbing codes should be strictly adhered to during the installation and the mounting.

Make sure never to use fat rubber gaskets during installation as they might cause leaks in the composition of the circulator and the final zone system. Only use the O-ring Gaskets that come with the product for maximum security.

Always use appropriate supply wires that are deemed suitable for 90 degree centigrade operations. Also, make sure that during replacement the parts must be identical to those required for double-insulated appliances. Always use flexible type of conduit with the product and never use rigid conduits to set up a composition.
