Circuit	Description
Control - Terminal 9	The output circuit is switched to 12 V to activate the component.
Control - Terminal 11	The output circuit is switched to ground to enable the component(s).

Component	Description
A38 Reductant Pump and Sensor Assembly	The supply pump and the backflow pump are combined in the reductant pump module, which is part of the reductant fluid reservoir assembly. Both pumps are designed as vibration pumps. In this type of pump a solenoid attracts a piston against the force of a spring. At the same time, the piston sucks in fluid through an inlet check-valve. When the current through the solenoid is turned off, the spring pushes the piston forward and the fluid is pushed through an outlet check-valve. The frequency in which the solenoid is turned on/off determines how much fluid is conveyed.
K115 Reductant Control Module	The control module controls the heating and dosing of the reductant.

A38 Reductant Pump and Sensor Assembly

The supply pump and the backflow pump are combined in the reductant pump module, which is part of the reductant fluid reservoir assembly. Both pumps are designed as vibration pumps. In this type of pump a solenoid attracts a piston against the force of a spring. At the same time, the piston sucks in fluid through an inlet check-valve. When the current through the solenoid is turned off, the spring pushes the piston forward and the fluid is pushed through an outlet check-valve. The frequency in which the solenoid is turned on/off determines how much fluid is conveyed.

K115 Reductant Control Module

The control module controls the heating and dosing of the reductant.
