2.1 Applications
DP 10 pumps
are designed for pumping
• drainage and surface water
• groundwater
• industrial process water without solids or fibres.
EF 30 pumps
are designed for pumping
• drainage and surface water with small impurities
• wastewater with fibres, e.g. from laundries
• wastewater without discharge from toilets
• wastewater from commercial buildings without
discharge from toilets.
The compact design makes the pumps suitable for
both temporary and permanent installation.
The pumps are designed for free-standing
installation.
DP 10.65.26 pumps can be installed on an auto-
coupling system.
2.1.1 Potentially explosive environments
Use explosion-proof pumps for applications in
potentially explosive environments.
3. Operating conditions
The pumps are designed for intermittent operation
(S3). When completely submerged, the pumps can
also operate continuously (S1). See section
The EF pumps are suitable for pumping effluent and
other liquids with solids up to 30 mm.
3.1 Installation depth
Maximum 10 metres below liquid level.
3.2 Operating pressure
Maximum 6 bar.
3.3 Operation
Maximum number of starts per hour, see WebCAPS
on www.grundfos.com.
3.4 pH value
Pumps in permanent installations can be used for
pumping liquids with a pH value between 4 and 10.
3.5 Liquid temperature
0 °C to +40 °C.
For short periods (maximum 15 minutes) a
temperature of up to +60 °C is allowed (standard
versions only).
3.6 Density of pumped liquid
Maximum 1000 kg/m

Warning
The explosion protection classification
of the pump is CE
II 2 G, Ex bcd IIB
T4 Gb.
The classification of the installation
site must in each individual case be
approved by the local fire-fighting
authorities.
Warning
The pumps must under no
circumstances pump combustible
liquids.
Warning
Explosion-proof pumps must never
pump liquids with a temperature higher
than 40 °C.
