The series was manufactured in eighteen units from 1955 to 1957. The ships were mainly used in small coastal voyages in the North and Baltic Sea areas. The first series, also called Kümo 500 / I, comprised six units that were built at the Peene shipyard. The remaining eleven, even Kümo 500 / mentioned specimens presented an advanced draft of the II Elbewerft Boizenburg . A later development, on the Wolgast based type, was also Kümo 840 called Series North Star .

First ship and namesake of the whole series was on August 1, 1955 to the German Seereederei passed Wolgast with the hull number 20.

With the Timmendorf, the Laubegast ship repair yard only produced a ship with slightly different dimensions (see Kümo 450 ), which, however, was completed in December 1955 at the Peene shipyard. The series ended with two new buildings for Albania . The last ship in the series was the Butrinti (home port: Durres) with hull number 1711 , which was handed over in 1957 .
