You need to import all the relevant libraries for DPF. Below is an example code (tested with 2024R1)

import clr
import os
import sys
import Ansys

def DPFAddReference(reference_name):
    try:
        clr.AddReference(reference_name);
        return
    except:
        print(reference_name + " reflection was not generated.")

def importPlugins():

    DPFAddReference("Ans.Utilities")
    DPFAddReference("CS_DataProcessing")

    from Ans.DataProcessing import DataProcessingCore
    from Ans.DataProcessing.load import GeneratePluginDll
    DataProcessingCore.Initialization()

    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_Native_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_FEMutils_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("meshOperatorsCore_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("mapdlOperatorsCore_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_Math_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_Hdf5_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_PointCloudSearch_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_Mechanical_dll_cs")
    DPFAddReference("Ans_Dpf_MechanicalResults_dll_cs")

importPlugins()

import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf
rst_path = r"\Path\to\file.rst"
model = dpf.Model(rst_path)
print(model.ResultInfo.AnalysisType)
