1 Introduction
Pumps
DP-3000 series pumps are designed so that you can easily convert the pump to another model or add
options. The interchangeable parts are:
• Motor type (including upgrade to encoder control)
• Chamber size
• Gear ratio
This section provides procedures for performing the upgrades listed above. You can convert the DP-3000
to another model by changing the drive motor. You can also use the same procedure to replace the drive
motor if it fails. If you want to order new parts to make any of these changes, please contact Asymtek.
DP-3000 Drive Motor Upgrade
The SDP-3XX1, SDP-3XX2, and SDP-3XX4 Motor Upgrade Kits allow you to convert the model of the
pump by changing the motor model. For example, if can convert a DP-3XX2 model pump into a DP-3XX4
model pump, and vice versa. Converting from one pump to another can radically change the flow rate
performance of the pump.
There are three motors that can be easily interchanged and used on the DP-3000. The type of motor
used directly affects the flow rate, and each model is most useful for specific applications within the range
of dot accuracy indicated in Table 1-1. Motor upgrade kits are available through Asymtek.

" NOTE When you order your kit, make sure to specify that you will be performing a drive motor
upgrade.
The encoded motor (SDP-3XX0) is a specialized, board-driven model that requires
special electronics drivers for operation. A trained Asymtek service technician MUST
install this model to allow you to make use of its features. Refer to the Introduction
section of this manual for a description.
It may be necessary to change the drive motor if the present one is damaged or if you wish to use your
DP-3000 for an application requiring a different dispensing speed. Whether you are upgrading your drive
motor or simply replacing it, follow the instructions below for removing and replacing the drive motor.
