Instruction Sheet
102-564
SUPERSEDES: New
Plant ID No. 001-5024
EFFECTIVE: February 19, 2021
DESCRIPTION:
The 0015e3® stainless steel is a variable speed, high-eciency wet rotor circulator with
ECM permanent magnet technology. With 3 easy settings, its performance curves are
equivalent to the versatile Taco 0015 3-speed andideal for hydronic systems zoned
with circulators or zone valves. The 0015e3 reduces power consumptionby up to 85%
compared to equivalent AC permanent split capacitor circulators.
