SUPERSEDES: January 19, 2021
Plant ID No. 001-5001
DESCRIPTION:
The 0015e3 is a variable speed ,high-efficiency, wet rotor circulator with an ECM, permanent magnet
motor. With 3 easy settings, its performance curves are equivalent to the versatile Taco 0015 3-speed and
ideal for hydronic systems zoned with circulators or zone valves. The 0015e3 reduces power consump-
tion by up to 85% compared to equivalent AC permanent split capacitor circulators.
APPLICATION:
• Maximum operating pressure: 125 psi (8.6 bar)
• Maximum water temperature: 230°F (110ºC)
• Electrical specifications:
Voltage: 110-120V, 50/60 Hz, single phase
Maximum operating power: 44W
Maximum amp rating: 0.54
• Equipped with a cast iron casing and should be used for closed loop systems only
• Not suitable for open loop potable water or chilled water systems
• Taco circulator pumps are for indoor use only – employer uniquement a l'interieur
• Acceptable for use with water or maximum of 50% water/glycol solution
FEATURES:
• Three easy settings to match system requirements - LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH
• Replaces all single speed and 3-speed circulators in its class
• ECM performance equivalent to the versatile Taco 0015 3-speed circulator
• Multi-color LED display showing power on and error code diagnostics
• Use with a Taco ZVC Zone Valve Control or SR Switching Relay for ON/OFF operation
• Nut capture feature on flanges for easier fit up
• Dual electrical knockouts and 6" stranded wire leads for easy wiring
• Double insulated - no ground-wire required
• Whisper quiet operation
• BIO Barrier
protects the pump from system contaminants
®
• SureStart
- automatic unblocking and air purging mode
®
• Optional 2-way universal flange model for easy fit-up to any flange orientation. See Figure 1.
• Integral Flow Check (IFC
• Green Mode - active system monitoring and power optimization
INSTALLATION:
WARNING: Do not use in swimming pool or spa areas. Pump has not been investigated for these applications.
AVERTISSEMENT : Ne pas utiliser dans une piscine ou un spa. La pompe n'a pas été étudiée pour ces applications.
CAUTION: The addition of petroleum based fluids or certain chemical additives to systems using TACO equipment
voids the warranty. Consult factory for fluid compatibility.
ATTENTION : L'ajout de liquides à base de pétrole ou de certains additifs chimiques à des systèmes utilisant un
équipement TACO annule la garantie. Consultez le fabricant pour connaître la compatibilité de liquides.
CAUTION: Installations at elevations over 5000 feet must have higher fill pressure of 20 psi minimum to prevent
pump cavitation and flashing. Premature failure may result. Adjust expansion tank pressure to equal fill pressure. A
larger size expansion tank may be required.
ATTENTION : Des installations à des altitudes de plus de 1600 mètres doivent présenter une pression de remplis-
sage plus élevée de 20 psi au minimum afin d'éviter toute cavitation ou flashing de la pompe. Une défaillance pré-
maturée peut en résulter. Réglez la pression du réservoir d'expansion de façon qu'elle soit égale à la pression de
remplissage. Un réservoir d'expansion d'une taille supérieure peut être nécessaire.

  • Page 4 Location: The circulator can be installed on the supply or return side of the boiler but for best system performance, it should always pump away from the expansion tank. See piping diagrams in Figure 2 and Figure 3. CAUTION: Do not use flat rubber gaskets. Only use O-ring gaskets provided or leaks may result. Warranty will be void. Mounting position: Circulator must be mounted with the motor in the horizontal position.

    WARNING: SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES. A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the following: The words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED” or the double insulation symbol (square within a square). In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of ground - ing.
