(aChapter Maintenance).
Should unusual noises occur, immediately stop the pump. Immediately
identify and eliminate the cause in order to avoid consequential
damages.
Observe the safety sheet for DEF.
2.3. Intended conditions of use
The PREMAxx DEF axial gear pump is an electrically driven pump for the delivery of DEF (AdBlue®).
The temperature of the conveying liquid must be between –5 °C and + 35 °C (23 °F to 95 °F).
The DEF electric diaphragm pump is only allowed to be connected to a suitable power source (see
nameplate).
To ensure that usage stipulations are met, read through the Operating Instructions completely before
using the pump and observe all stipulations.
Any departure from the usage stipulations (other uid media, use of force) or user modications
(changes, use of non-original parts) can be dangerous and are considered as non-intended usage.
The user is liable for any damage resulting from non-intended use.
During repairs to any electrical components, the appropriate safety and test requirements are to be
observed.
Only genuine replacement parts are to be used for any repairs, because otherwise the warranty will be
invalidated.
In order to prevent dirt from entering the pump chamber, it is absolutely necessary to install a strainer
with pre-cleaner in the suction line, because otherwise the warranty may be invalidated.
The use in explosive environment is prohibited.
Any application beyond the intended use can lead to hazardous situations and shall be regarded as non-
intended use.

DANGER
Risk of injury and material damage from explosive vapors
Never use the pump to deliver explosive uids such as petrol or other
uids with similar ashpoints!
Since the motor and the switch are not explosion-protected, the pump
must not be operated in an explosion risk area.
Pumping caustic or other hazardous chemical or biological substances is
forbidden.
2.4. Risks when handling the PREMAxx DEF axial gear pump
DANGER
Risk of injury and material damage because of improper installation,
electric current or contaminated media.
Never work on a pump that is running.
Mount or remove attachments and accessories only when the pump is
switched o.
For your own safety, disconnect the pump in addition from the power
supply.
Never leave the pump unattended.
Check to ensure that the pump does not work against the closed nozzle.
Do not pump contaminated uids
Take special care to ensure that there are no contaminants in the uid to
be pumped.
Install a strainer on the suction pipe.
Damaged attachments and accessories can lead to personal injury and
material damage
Attachments and accessories must be checked for wear, splits or other
damage throughout their period of use.
Damaged accessories and attachments must be replaced immediately.
With reference to the period of use, please note the details in
ZH 1/A45.4.2 or DIN 20066 Part 5.3.2
Escaping liquids can cause environmental harm
Comply with the stipulations of the German Water Resources Act (WHG) and
of the Plant Regulations of the German federal states (VawS).
2.5. Risks in handling DEF solutions
The DEF concentrate is not inammable, not explosive and not oxidizing.
NOTE
For cleaning, ush equipment with water. Dispose of released contaminated
uid. As a non-hazardous liquid waste, it should be solidied with stabilizing
agents. Avoid release to the environment.
DEF is corrosive to non-ferrous metals.
Avoid skin and eye contact. In case of contact with the eyes, rinse the
eyes with plenty of drinking water and consult a physician.
Observe the safety sheet for DEF.

3. Transport and temporary storage
Before transport, ensure that there is no liquid (DEF residues) in the pump.
Do not use the cable to transport the pump!
Storage and transport conditions:
– Weather-protected storage with temperature control, protection against frost, moisture and rain.
Maximum relative humidity: 80 %.
– Storage temperature range from -5 °C to + 55 °C
(23 °F to 131 °F)
4. Construction and functional description
The PREMAxx DEF axial gear pump is an electrically driven pump for the delivery of DEF (AdBlue®).
It is only designed for use as a barrel pump and can be screwed on storage barrels or containers.
The DEF axial gear pump is s a compact and handy pump, it‘ s not self-priming. It is quickly ready for use
thanks to its integrated priming stage, which allows to manually pump small quantities of uid before
commissioning or in case of a power failure.
The pump housing is made of high-quality, impact-resistant plastic.
Numerous accessories from FMT allow a simple and quick mounting on every installation.
The materials of the pump are compatible with slightly aggressive liquids like DEF.
The pump is electrically driven by an alternating current motor suitable for continuous operation. The
pump is directly ange-mounted to the motor. In case of overload, a thermal protection device auto-
matically switches o the electric motor.
When the motor has cooled down, the thermal protection device automatically restarts the motor.
Pump data aChapter Technical Data.
The PREMAxx DEF axial gear pump is available in the following versions:
– PREMAxx DEF, 48 l/min / 12.6 gpm, 120 V-1~AC-60 Hz
–PREMAxx DEF, 35 l/min / 9.2 gpm, 12 V-DC-battery terminal clips
The pump can be equipped with dierent nozzle valves:
–with a standard nozzle valve or
– with an automatically closing nozzle valve
The pump can be delivered in a set including:
– PREMAxx DEF in the above-mentioned motor variants
– Hose kits
– Nozzle valve in one of the above-mentioned versions
4.1. Area of application
The PREMAxx DEF axial gear pump is only suitable for the delivery of DEF (AdBlue®).
The temperature of the delivery uids must be between –5 °C and +35 °C (23 °F to 95 °F). The tempera-
tures must not be above or below these limit values.
Since the motor and the switch are not explosion-protected the PREMAxx Axial Gear Pump must not
be operated in an explosion risk area!

The installation must be carried out in the following sequences (see g. 6.-1):
Click the lter (6) to the suction tube (5).
Screw the suction tube (5) to the pump‘s suction port (4).
At rst, screw the barrel adapter (3) into the storage container‘s connection thread.
Then put the pump in the desired position of the barrel adapter.
The pump can be xed as desired in 12 dierent positions.
NOTE
Completely pull out the telescopic suction tube before mounting the pump
to the storage container.
The length automatically adapts to the height of the corresponding storage
container. Thus, each container can be almost completely emptied.
