Taco 00e Series Instruction Sheet

SUPERSEDES: May 19, 2021
Plant ID No. 001-4230
The 00e series VR1816 circulator is an infinitely variable speed wet rotor circulator with an ECM,
permanent magnet motor. Operating modes include infinitely adjustable fixed speed or self-adjust-
ing proportional or constant pressure variable speed. Its high efficiency motor reduces power
consumption by up to 85% compared to equivalent AC permanent split capacitor circulators.
• 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
• 3 operating modes:
- Fixed speed ( ) - infinitely adjustable MIN/MAX settings
- Constant pressure (
(5, 10, or 15 maximum feet of head)
- Proportional pressure (
(High, Med, or Low)
• Multi-color LED display showing operating mode 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
®
• - automatic unblocking and air purging mode
• Optional 2-way flange model for easy fit-up to any flange orientation
• Integral Flow Check (IFC
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 remplissage plus élevée
de 20psi au minimum afin d'éviter toute cavitation ou flashing de la pompe. Une défaillance prématurée 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.
