The locomotive was manufactured in 1917 by the Sächsischen Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz with the serial number 3981 for the Wülknitz Sleeper Works (Schwellentränkwerk Wülknitz; now the Oberbauwerk Wülknitz) as a shunting locomotive. For reasons of fire protection the use of a "fire-free" locomotive was desired, especially as there was enough available steam to operate the locomotive.

About 1970, the locomotive was withdrawn by Oberbauwerk Wülknitz, and was subsequently scrapped.^[1]

Four similar locomotives were built for various industries between 1914 and 1916. The locomotives differed both in the dimensions of the steam engine and in the permitted operating pressure of the steam accumulator . One locomotive (for Lange of Auerhammer) was built as a crane locomotive.
