Oil Motor Pump type BFPM 21
Application
Function
The BFPM range is a series of Danfoss oil pumps in
combination with a highly efficient permanent
magnet motor.
The BFPM Electronic Controller must be used for
controlling BFPM motor pumps (see separate data
sheet for BFPM Electronic Controller).
BFPM 21 is designed for small domestic oil
burners up to 24 l/h.
BFPM 21 features:
• Light oil and kerosene
• 1- or 2-pipe operation
• 1-stage
• Built-in pressure regulator
• Solenoid valve cut-off
• Cartridge filter

Pressure Suction Return
From the suction inlet (S) oil is drawn through the
filter (H) to the gear set, where the pressure is
increased. When voltage is applied to the
NC-valve, it opens and releases oil to the nozzle
outlet.
By means of the diaphragm (D) in the pressure
regulator (T), the pressure is kept constant at the
value set on adjustment screw (P1).
In 2-pipe systems the excess oil is led back to the
return outlet (R) and the tank.
In 1-pipe systems with plugged return outlet (R)
and screw (A) removed, the oil is returned
internally to the gear set (see figure).
Cut-off function, solenoid valve
When the burner stops, the voltage to the
NC-valve is cut off and the oil flow to the nozzle
outlet is cut off immediately.
foss
Bleeding
In 2-pipe systems the pump is self-priming, i.e.
bleeding is performed via the constriction (O) to
the return outlet (R).
In 1-pipe systems with plugged return outlet (R),
bleeding must be performed through the nozzle
outlet (E) or the pressure gauge port (P).
Warranty
For pumps used outside the stated technical data
and used with oil containing abrasive particles
Danfoss cannot give any warranty.
Note! The solenoid valve must be replaced after
250.000 operations or 10 years (approved life
expectancy).
