2. General information
The DDC dosing pump is a self-priming
diaphragm pump. It consists of a housing
with stepper motor and electronics,
a dosing head with diaphragm and valves and the
control cube.
Excellent dosing features of the pump:
•
Optimal intake even with degassing media, as
the pump always works at full suction stroke
volume.
•
Continuous dosing, as the medium is sucked up
with a short suction stroke, regardless of the
current dosing flow, and dosed with the longest
possible dosing stroke.
2.1 Applications

2.2 Improper operating methods
The operational safety of the pump is only
guaranteed if it is used in accordance with
section
.
Warning
Other applications or the operation of
pumps in ambient and operating
conditions, which are not approved, are
considered improper and are not
permitted. Grundfos cannot be held liable
for any damage resulting from incorrect
use.

Frequent disengagement from the mains
voltage, e.g. via a relay, can result in
damage to the pump electronics and in the
breakdown of the pump. The dosing
accuracy is also reduced as a result of
internal start procedures.
Do not control the pump via the mains
voltage for dosing purposes!
Only use the "
External stop
