European Union ErP Directive issued draft regulations for the ecological design requirements of pumps

Summary of contents: Recently, the EU ErP Directive announced the draft regulations for ecological design requirements for pumps. The regulations stipulate the ecological design requirements of the pump and the pump product information, etc. At the same time, regulations stipulate that the regulations apply to the blade pump for pumping clean water and its integrated products. If the draft is formally implemented, pumps that do not meet this requirement from January 1, 2013 will be banned from production and sales within the EU.

It is reported that the implementation measures have made provisions in terms of energy efficiency indicators and information labeling requirements of the pump: First, energy efficiency, implementation measures divide the minimum efficiency indicators of the pump into two implementation stages, the first stage from January 1, 2013 Began implementation, and the second stage will be implemented from July 1, 2014. The minimum efficiency index (MEI) of the pump in the first stage shall be greater than or equal to 0.10, and in the second stage, the minimum efficiency index (MEI) shall be greater than or equal to 0.40. The second is labeling, the implementation of the requirements of the pump technical documentation and the water pump manufacturer's website should clearly indicate the minimum efficiency index (MEI), the date of manufacture, the manufacturer's name or trademark, the business registration number and the place of production, product model, belt Equilibrium impeller hydraulic pump efficiency or labeling, pump performance characteristics of the pump performance curve, standard style of information, product-related dismantling, recycling or disposal information and manufacturer's website should provide consumers with different pump types of benchmark information, etc. .

According to reports, after the European Union's "Framework Directive for Establishing Energy-related Products Ecological Design Requirements" (Erp Directive) was issued, the research on special directives on related products with significant environmental impact has been accelerated, and external power supplies have been released. There are a number of ecological design requirements for electric motors, circulation pumps, televisions, refrigeration equipment, and ventilators. In the future, more and more products will be officially included in the scope of the ErP Directive.

For this reason, the inspection and quarantine department reminds related companies to keep abreast of information on foreign notifications and technical trade barriers related to their products through various means. For example, they can directly understand the latest requirements through official publications such as the Federal Register of the United States and the official journal of the European Union. The relevant Chinese materials can also be obtained through the websites of domestic WTO/TBT organizations; the energy efficiency design of the products must be emphasized, and the product structure and production process should be improved through the research, development and utilization of energy-saving technologies, and the energy efficiency level of their own products should be improved. Relevant laws and regulations require product energy efficiency levels and related information to be reflected on the product label in the correct format; must have a joint awareness, through the establishment of a corporate alliance, and universities, research institutes, energy efficiency testing laboratories to form a response complex, through joint enhancement technology , capital, testing, and other levels to improve the ability to respond.
