Solar hydronic systems can be a great way to improve the energy efficiency of your home while reducing your environmental footprint. To help you achieve the full savings potential of these systems, Taco has developed a variable speed circulator specifically for solar applications. Variable speed circulator operation is ideal for solar applications, where heat production varies greatly. By adjusting the flow rate based on the temperature differential between the collector and your storage system, the solar variable speed circulator optimizes the heat transfer process. Getting the most out of your solar system doesn’t have to be difficult. The solar variable speed circulator’s line cord is wired at the factory for fast installation. It features freeze protection and a holiday function for safe, automated maintenance of your system while you are away. The bronze construction of this circulator makes it ideal for applications where corrosion resistance is important. With Taco, your hydronic circulation is in good hands.

Product Features

Variable Speed, Superior Efficiency

The variable speed motor in this circulator will scale the output to match the collector, providing efficient energy transfer and up to a 20% increase in performance for your solar system.

Expansion Versatility

The included line voltage output may be configured by users. Adding additional equipment to your system couldn’t be easier.

Maintenance Free

The beauty of Taco’s “00” series circulators is in the simplicity. The self-lubricating design improves reliability by eliminating the need for a mechanical seal.

Replaceable Cartridge Design

All of the circulator’s moving parts are contained within a removable cartridge. Servicing a “00” series pump is as easy as replacing this cartridge.

High Capacity, High Efficiency

In the “00” series, powerful pumps are backed by a direct-drive design. Direct-drive mechanisms are known for their efficiency, longevity, and low noise levels, qualities that translate well to any application.
