To ensure reliable and optimum operation, Grundfos
DPK pumps are available with various types of
impellers.
DPK drainage pump:
• 0.75 - 15 kW models have semi-open impeller
• 19 and 22 kW models have closed impeller.
DPK.V wastewater pump:
• 1.5 - 7.5 kW models have Super Vortex free-flow
impeller.
DPK pumps are used for removal of surface and
underground drainage water in buildings, courtyard
drainage systems and industrial applications where
water from various applications is collected into
drainage pits and then pumped further.
DPK.V pumps are used for more applications
including effluent and screened wastewater in similar
applications.
DPK and DPK.V pumps can be controlled via the
pump controllers GU01 and GU02. For further
information, see data sheet for GU01 / GU02 module
