BPMA Activity Highlights 2011/12 EU legislation, specifically the EuP Directive 2005/32/EC and ErP Directive 2009/125/EC, has major impact on pump sector
In 2006 the European Commission identified sectors that consumed large amounts of electricity and subsequently organized studies (LOTS) to see what could be done to reduce electrical energy consumption. Lot 11 specifically looked at motor-driven systems and the outcome of the study has culminated in new EU legislation in regard to electric motors, glandless circulators and certain water pumps. In this article Brian Huxley, Director of The British Pump Manufacturers’ Association Ltd (BPMA) helped clarify the situation facing specifiers and installers of such equipment.
Motors
Fig 2 – Typical permanent magnet technology
The old EFF ratings under the voluntary scheme, EFF1 EFF 2 EFF3 etc with EFF1 being the most efficient is replaced by legislation.
continued: “The two main technology changes which substantially influence the energy savings are: – Moving away from standard induction motors to permanent magnet motors (see figures 1 and 2) – Moving from standard speed technology to variable speed technology. Products Directive 2005/32/EC and EnergyRelated Products Directive 2009/125/EC
Motor legislation under the EuP directive is now complete. It came into effect on the 16th June 2011.
The new ratings will be IE 1, IE2, IE3, IE4, IE5 with IE5 being the most efficient. IE2 is roughly equivalent to the old EFF1.
The regulations for these products are in two parts. Phase 1 – From 1 January 2013, glandless stand-alone circulators, with the exception of those specifically designed for primary circuits of thermal solar and of heat pumps, shall have an energy efficiency index (EEI) of not more than 0.27. Phase 2 – From 1 August 2015, glandless stand-alone circulators and glandless circulators integrated into products (such as boilers) shall have an energy efficiency index (EEI) of not more than 0.23.
On the 16th of June 2011 all motors 0.75kW to 375kW had to be IE2, or better. On the 1st of January 2015 all motors 7.5kW to 375kW will have to be IE3 or IE2 with a VSD. On the 1st of January 2017 all motors 0.75kW to 375kW will have to be IE3 or IE2 with a VSD.
Exceptions:
The legislation only applies to three phase motors, and to motors sold into, and for use in Europe. Single phase motors are excluded. All submersible motors are excluded. Encapsulated motors, which cannot be assessed for efficiency as a stand-alone unit are excluded.
Water Pumps
As far as water pumps are concerned, in December 2011 the European Commission agreed proposed legislation that will lead to the removal from the market of 40% of inefficient water pumps (in accordance with a Mean Efficiency Index (MEI). This was agreed with the European pump industry and will be enacted according to the following timetable: – From 1 January 2013 – MEI ≥ 0.1 (cut-off 10%); – From 1 January 2015 – MEI ≥ 0.4 (cut-off 40%).”
Europump Working Groups
The European Commission has now commissioned further studies (LOTS) in 2012 and, as far as pumps are concerned, the relevant lots are 28 and 29. Lot 28 encompasses pumps for public and private waste water (including buildings, networks and treatment facilities), and for fluids with high solids content. Lot 29 encompasses pumps for private and public swimming pools, ponds, fountains and aquariums, as well as clean water pumps larger than those regulated under Lot 11.
BPMA, through its European Federation, Europump, will actively participate with the European Commission in these new Lots and in this regard have created two new working groups. The work of these Europump Working Groups is vital. Europump wishes in this way to influence future legislative measures and to safeguard the interests of its member companies.”

Glandless stand-alone and boiler-integrated circulators
In regard to these products, regulations will ensure the placing on the Community market of technologies that can significantly reduce the life-cycle environmental impact of circulators, leading to estimated electrical savings of 23TWh by 2020, corresponding to 11 million tones of CO2. Brian
BPMA members affected by the scope of Lots 28 and 29 are being strongly encouraged to participate in the related Europump Working Groups. ■

BPMA Activity Highlights 2011/12
MDS CONFERENCE BUILDS PLATFORM FOR INDUSTRY DEBATE ON ENERGY CONSERVATION The inaugural Motor Driven Systems (MDS) Conference was held on 9th & 10th November 2011, at St. John’s Hotel, Solihull.
The five national trade associations for pumps, compressed air, motors, drives, controls and the fan industry (BPMA, BCAS, BEAMA, GAMBICA, and FETA) had joined forces to launch a national debate examining the critical importance of systems’ engineering in achieving energy efficiency.
Organised by Touchwave Media, the MDS Conference looked at existing and forthcoming legislation on energy efficiency; the degree to which standardisation could play its part; system strategies – which ones were in place and which ones could and should be in place; and technologies – what exists now and what is in the pipeline?
Approximately 100 delegates from manufacturers, end users, research organisations and academia, as well as representatives from the UK Government and the EU, attended the event.
After the event….
A post-Conference survey revealed a number of interesting conclusions from the assembled audience. For example, almost half of those who responded (49%) attended in the hope of being made aware of, or making others aware of, a product, technology or subject.
As Tony Breen, Development Engineer of Nuaire, commented, “The MDS Conference was an excellent opportunity to learn about new technologies and legislation relating to the ventilation industry. The market research data, information on ISO50001 and general information provided on applications of motors and efficiency improvements was of real value.”
Indeed, the observation that delegates were there actively seeking information can be confirmed by the ‘Excellent’ ratings accorded to sessions such as BSI’s paper on ISO50001 – ‘The Dawn of International Energy Management Systems’ and IMS’s ‘Overview of Global Market for Higher Efficiency Motors’.
The reputation of the companies involved with the Conference was a key reason for many delegates attending, with 24% stating that the qualities of the supporting companies was the reason they attended, while 38% were

attracted by the quality of the programme, topics or speakers. The remainder were swayed by recommendation from an industry contact.
Frank Holden, of Drive and Coupling Solutions Ltd., found the event to be an ideal way of informing potential partners and customers of the Company’s permanent magnet coupling and speed control devices. “We have a unique and innovative way of transferring torque from the motor to the load. Delegates at the Conference listened with interest and followed with good, searching questions.”
“A great two days with interesting content within the presentations as well as a very good opportunity to network,” was how Andy Jones, General Manager of Mattei Compressors, viewed the event. The length of the speakers’ sessions was viewed as just about right by 95% of the respondents.
Summary
Conference organiser, Touchwave Media Director, Andrew Castle summed up where he sees the development of this important industry issue. “On behalf of the five industry bodies, our task was to drive the debate on motor driven systems energy savings higher up the corporate agenda. From the feedback we have received both during and following the event the MDS Conference has succeed in bringing industry closer together to achieve that.” “However,” he continues, “the next stage will be seeking the involvement of more end users, machine builders and integrators, energy consultants and senior managers, financial directors and energy managers so that the commercial and financial arguments for investment in energy savings can be properly presented.” ■
“The event has been a formidable occasion for us to listen to policy makers, exchange with other industries and present our own products. The presentations were very professional and everything went smoothly – a very good experience,” said Florent Violain of Sterling Fluid Systems.
Delegates seemed to particularly appreciate the input of DEFRA spokesman, Mike Walker, who outlined the Government’s position on motor driven efficiency, and that of the EU’s Wilhelmus De Wilt, who explained European Policy on Motor Driven systems.
Almost three-quarters (74%) felt that the Conference had either met or exceeded their expectations and an impressive 88% have already stated their intention to attend next year’s Conference.
For further information please contact Andrew Castle, Event Director at Touchwave Media on 07785 290034 or by email at andrew@touchwavemedia.co.uk.
As Alex Chausovsky, Research Director of Motors & Mechanical Power Transmission, explained, “The Conference was a terrific opportunity to network with leaders and industrial energy efficiency champions. The presentations provided a wealth of information on improvements in motor efficiency, as well as those for pump, fan and compressor systems. I will definitely attend the Conference again next year.”
Steve Schofield, Deputy Director of BPMA, and one of the driving forces behind the concept of such an event, offered his perspective. “The MDS Conference proved successful in attracting distinguished national and international presenters and attendees. The variety of participants, which included professionals from manufacturing, marketing and academia, subsequently ensured the attendees left the 2011Conference with a clear understanding of the issues and opportunities surrounding this sector.”
The brand that defined performance now redefines it. Weir Minerals.Expertise where it counts.
Steve Brambley, of GAMBICA, pointed out that the inaugural Conference provides a vehicle for future development.
Introducing the WARMAN® WBH® Centrifugal Slurry Pump
“This was a great opportunity for the five related industries of motors, controls, pumps, fans and compressors to educate and inform on past, present and future issues in their fields. In addition to knowledge sharing at the event, it will serve as a platform for greater collaboration between the Associations, bringing added value to the members.”
Large capacity bearings for higher pressure loads. New bearing frame design for truer alignment. Grease or oil lubrication. Optimised impeller and liner design for low turbulence operation and enhanced performance.
John Parsons, Project Director BEAMA, added, “The Conference was both enjoyable and informative and it was very valuable to see all the different parts of the system brought together in one event. BEAMA is looking forward to developing an even better follow up event with the partner organisations.”

BPMA Activity Highlights 2011/12 Members visit Morgan Cars
FREE Insurance Health Checks for BPMA Members
On the 20 September BPMA arranged a visit to the Morgan Car Company in Malvern. 20 members joined us to enjoy a fully guided tour of the factory to see the traditional skills of the craftsmen and women handmaking Morgan Sports Cars. We discovered the rich history of the Morgan Motor Company and followed the incredible stories from Victorian times until the present day. We were also lucky enough to be able to witness the exciting new developments and cutting edge technology that goes into today’s Morgan Sports Cars.
BPMA arranged an additional insurance service for its members insurance through its scheme provider “Andrew Bourne & Co.
Not only have members access to exclusive insurance products and competitive premiums through the arrangement, there is now available to them a FREE Insurance health check of their current insurance arrangements. This is to ensure members insurance policies meets the requirements of the businesses. “As businesses grow” says Richard Gibson the BPMA Scheme Manager of Andrew Bourne & Co. “it is very easy for their activities to fall out of the scope of their insurance policy. This could be devastating for a business and could leave to them being uninsured or underinsured if they have to make a claim. We have had many instances of this happening over the past few years.“
Following an excellent lunch, BPMA held its Marketing Forum Meeting chaired by Shaun Hampson of Sterling Fluid Systems. We were pleased to welcome several delegates who had not had the opportunity of attending previous meetings which added to some lively debates on issues tackled by the BPMA
The BPMA appreciate that some members may have been with their current insurance providers for many years and are perhaps not looking to change. The service however provides peace of mind that the service, premiums, cover and advice that you currently enjoyed are the best available.
BPMA explained “Our industry experts at Andrew Bourne & Co would arrange a visit to the members premises to risk profile their Insurance requirements by examining their current policy covers, Risk Management, Premiums, Conditions, Terms and Warranties. Following this the members would receive a FREE a report based upon their findings which is backed up by their knowledge and understanding of the industry. This report can then be used in your next renewal discussions with your holding broker or be used to adjust the members current insurance policy mid-term.”
BPMA E-learning 1st! Following the launch of the BPMA e-learning “Essentials” course, we are pleased to offer our congratulations to Robert Logan of Axflow who became the first student to successfully complete the course which is accredited by the Open College Network. For full details of our e-learning courses visit www.bpma-elearning.co.uk
Insurance health checks through the BPMA can be done at anytime during the year and do not need to be conducted at the renewal of the policy. In addition, for members that arrange an Insurance Health Check and then at next renewal incept a commercial combined policy with Andrew Bourne & Co. will be entitled to a further 10% discount from their insurance premium in the first year. For non members of the BPMA, this service is still available but at a cost of £750 plus VAT. However if you did join the BPMA and incept a commercial combined policy with the Andrew Bourne & Co this would be refunded to you.

High Efficiency
2015
How the pioneer of high-efficiency can help you to jump the ErP hurdles of 2013 and 2015 starting today. Uncontrolled circulation pumps in heating systems are proving to be real energy guzzlers, consuming billions of kilowatt hours of excess energy every year. The good news is that these pumps will be turned into scrap iron throughout the EU. This policy will come into effect with the inception of the ErP Directive for energy efficiency (2009/125/EC) on 01 January 2013. More to the point, you can start today reducing your footprint on the environment and relieve household budgets by investing in Wilo high-efficiency pumps.

CEN TC 197 Previously issued a Resolution C3/2007 which concerns the result of a questionnaires on drafts and standards under the New Machinery Directive. The Standards which required work are EN 809, EN13951, EN12162 prEN ISO 20361, prEN13386, prEN1829-1 and 2. This work is now completed.
European Directives BPMA continues to provide an exclusive service to members in regard to the monitoring of European Directives and legislation affecting the pump industry. The February 2012 ”Directives Update” follows:
“New strategy for the single market” -
On 9 May 2010 Professor Mario Monti (formerly Commissioner for the Internal Market and for Competition) presented to the European Commission a report on a new strategy for the Single Market, which should be the basis for a Commission initiative to re-launch the Single Market. While analysing the shortcomings of (and reasons behind) a full completion of the EU single market, the report also contains a series of proposals (mainly legislative) to fill the gaps in nine identified areas: Make the single market work for citizens, consumers and SMEs, speed up implementation of the Small Business Act and adopt the Statute for a European Private Company Shape Europe’s digital single market, create a regulatory framework for electronic communication and for e-commerce (for both consumers and providers) and adopt an EU copyright law In the areas of energy, climate change and environment, establish new EU regulatory frameworks for the large-scale deployment of renewable sources, smart metering, smart grids and transparent wholesale energy markets, set up a single market for green products (EU-wide standards for measuring and auditing carbon footprints and for energy efficient products, including trade certificates for renewable energy products); step up targeted EU funding for energy infrastructure On the single market for goods, review the EU standard setting system (striking the right balance between EU and national levels); adopt the EU patent and a single patent jurisdiction as a matter of urgency Advance the physical infrastructure of the single market: facilitate the combination of public-private partnerships with the use of structural funds; examine whether an ad hoc European regulatory framework would be needed to encourage long term investors’ focus on infrastructure projects; provide maximum legal security as regards competition policy in the area of infrastructure investment and financing. The report also recommends completing the Services directive in the area of industrial services, making recognition of professional qualifications faster and easier and encouraging mobility of researchers and highly mobile individuals by coordinating social security systems.
Europump Guideline • In line with 2006/42/EC • Highlights the specifics of pumps • Interpretation of partly completed machinery vs. Complete machinery • Definition – Pump without motor is machinery • Fasteners for guards (differencies between a guard and a protective device) • Will be available on the Europump website in June 2011
PRESSURE EQUIPMENT DIRECTIVE 97/23/EC
(no significant change since last Directives update) Europump Position paper requires modification to insert the new Machinery Directive and Atex numbers. The 5th annual meeting of the EU-China working group on pressure equipment took place in November in Brussels. The main objective of this EU-China Regulatory Dialogue is to ensure regulatory convergence between the EU and China in the long term, with a view to eliminating obstacles to trade and investment. PointS of discussion included the follow-up of the exchange of legislation and supporting documents agreed in previous meetings (Licensing guide; Office CSEI in Europe; Comparison of standards); an introduction of regulatory developments (EU side: TPED, new legislative framework package,…China side: WTO matters (boilers: BT/WTO/CHN/407); an exchange of view on market surveillance/export control; cooperation at ISO level; energy efficiency (Boiler); and a working plan for 2009. As pumps are excluded within Europe the BPMA through Europump and Orgalime will attempt to ensure the same position is taken in China . PED Directive 97/23/EC, and reorganisation of the working group and its chairmanship. The PED is expected to be revised during 2012, so the preparation of the revision should start in 2009. This potential revision has been subject to discussions and consultations by the Commission over the past few months. There will therefore be no integration of the Simple Pressure Vessels Directive 87/404/EEC (SPVD), the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC (PED) and the Transportable Pressure Equipment Directive 99/36/EC (TPED) at this point in time, as previously foreseen by the Commission

ATEX (EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES ) 94/9/EC ATEX Directive 94/09/EC
The Europump Atex Guideline has already been circulated to all BPMA members. However if members wish to have further copies they should contact the BPMA .To reiterate the document has now been split into two parts .
The new Directive 2006/42/EC came into effect as from 29 December 2009. The BPMA have now issued useful information on the requirements of the New Machinery Directive and also captive screws for guards. To comply fully with the new directive members should work to the revised text of standard EN 809 1998 +A1:2009 which was published by BSi February 2010. A preliminary version of the proposed revision of the existing Europump Guideline has now been Circulated ( 3 pages ) . This ensures that the pump industry fully understand its obligations. The Regulatory Committee on Machinery endorsed the second edition of the guide on the Machinery directive on 2 June 2010. This second edition covers all annexes and is available
• Part 1 being the background to the directive and will be useful to companies moving into Atex applications. • Part 2 will be more specific to particular areas that have affected the pump industry since the Directive came into force in July 2003. There is no further news regarding the tabled proposal concerning the format of the technical documentation

required by the ATEX Directive. To recall It seeks the possibility for the technical documentation to be kept in any format (e.g. hard copy, CD-ROM or any other electronic storage device) so that it can be made available within a reasonable period of time. As a consequence of the meeting discussion, the Orgalime proposal, accepted in principle by the Standing Committee, will be redrafted in order to bring it in line with the text of the New Legislative Framework recently approved, and the new document will be tabled on the agenda of the next ATEX Standing Committee. The European Guidelines on the application of Directive 94/9/EC –are available . Work continues on the revision of standard EN 13463-5 (protection of construction safety) This is expected to be circulated shortly for formal vote. The UK Convenor Alan Tyldesley is requesting a UK negative vote because of the issues regarding the deviation from ISO 1813 ( antistatic belts Finally, new references of harmonized standards (consolidated list) under the ATEX Directive have been published in the Official Journal. These are available on the Commission website. The Lisbon Treaty and New Legislative Framework will cause substantial changes to manufacturers in the future. Due to the Lisbon Treaty Articles will change from 95 to 114 for manufacturers and 137 to 153 for end users. The New legislative framework will affect the declaration of conformity, documentation and the marking of products. The marking of electric products will change mid 2012 and are a result of new IEC standards being produced in particular IEC 60079 whih introduces equipment in Group III valid for electrical equipment to be used in dust explosive areas. Also introduces classes of dust. For now it is believed there will be no change in marking of mechanical equipment. Members should start checking that electrical suppliers are working to IEC 60079. There are also discussions taking place regarding the development of future international standards to ensure mechanical equipment can be operated around the world in explosive environments , however the consequence of such a standard could be 3 party inspection of manufactured mechanical goods. Other changes to standards include ; EN13463 to IEC 80079 EN13463-1 to IEC 80079-36 EN 13463 (others) to IEC 80079-37 Drafts are published and the DIS is awaited .
EMC DIRECTIVE 89/336/EEC 2004/108/EC
(no significant change since last Directives update) The alignment of the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC with the New Legislative Framework (NLF) is still ongoing. In general most of the NLF provisions can be integrated into the EMC Directive with no particular problems or need for adaptation. In view of the specific objective of the Directive (to guarantee the electromagnetic compatibility of electrical apparatus and installations by imitating disturbances, not protecting the health and safety of users), the concepts of “risk” and “serious risk” will be clarified. The language of the safeguard clause has been adapted to fit the specific objective of the Directive. A full alignment with the provisions on notified bodies is envisaged, but the existing version of the modules should be kept. An updated list of harmonised standards was published in the OJEU on 11 November 2010 (C 306/1). The European Commission has finally published the implementation guidelines of the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC on its website. In the meantime, the UK Department for Trade and Industry (DTI) has published guidance on specific issues of interpretation of the directive. These guidelines are available on the DTI website. No reference to the old number should be made in correspondence , paperwork and certification. Electro Magnetic Fields Directive (EMFD) Directive 2004/40/EC On 15 June 2011, and following months of analysis and wide consultation of stakeholders, the European Commission published its proposal for the revision of the directive on protection of workers from exposure to electro-magnetic fields (available from the secretariat). The aim of this proposal is to amend Directive 2004/40/EC on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields). It relates to the short-term adverse health effects on workers exposed to electromagnetic fields during their work. The provisions of the Directive are minimum requirements, with each Member State free to adopt stricter rules. The Directive establishes exposure limit values for electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields varying in time at frequencies of between 0 and 300 GHz3; action values and orientation values for time-varying and static fields. These values are directly measurable and indicate a threshold above which employers must take one or more of the actions provided for in the Directive. The deadline for the extended transposition period of the current Directive is 30 April 2012 so the objective would be to finalise the institutional discussions (ordinary legislative process) before that date. Following months of discussions and an impact assessment, it is expected that the Commission accepts derogation from EMF exposure limits for medical MRI and reinforced preventive measures in situations where there is a threat of overexposure. Following the Commission proposal for a Directive amending Directive 2004/40/EC on the protection of workers from electromagnetic fields (EMF) in June, and despite progress in the discussions, the Council announced in early December

LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE 2006 /95/ EC
(no significant change since last Directives update) Alignment of the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EC with the New Legislative Framework (NLF) for the marketing of products and Decision 2008/768/EC on a common framework for the marketing of products continues. The European Commission has now published the updated guidance document on the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC The amendments to the current guide deal with the codification of the previous Directive 73/23/EEC and the interface with the “new” Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. The guidance document highlights the editorial corrigendum to Directive 1993/68/EC that clarifies Article 10 (1) regarding the placing of the CE marking and also touches on the

BPMA Activity Highlights 2011/12 methodology for acceptance of metallic products. On organic materials, they intend to align their national positive lists, but no results are expected before 2016 (with a possible intermediary list in 2012). On non-metallic materials testing, they are looking at organoleptic parameters (taste & odour), colour & turbidity, microbial growth… As a reminder, the new Construction Products Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 does not foresee harmonisation of hygienic requirements for materials and products in contact with drinking water, nor will the Drinking Water directive. In the meantime CEPMC (construction products association) is collecting facts on the barriers and difficulties faced by industry due to the lack of harmonisation in preparation for a possible action towards the European Commission

that there is still a need for further consultations with experts on two main issues: the way of expressing exposure limitations and derogation(s) to binding exposure limits. Industry highlighted concerns that the speed of work in the Council did not allow for the necessary analysis of the impact on industry of the changes being proposed. In Parliament, the Employment (EMPL) Committee rapporteur Elisabeth Morin-Chartier (EPP, France) issued her draft report on 14 November 2011. The deadline for amendments was 6 December and the vote in Committee is due to take place on 13 February 2012. The Commission has already announced that it intends to extend the deadline for transposition of the original directive, since it will not be possible for the Council and European Parliament to find an agreement by the deadline of April 2012 As a reminder, and despite the lobbying efforts developed at the time of discussion, this directive sets exposure limit values and action values, and defines employers’ obligations to determine the exposure and assess the associated risks. The manufacturers and employers organisations insist that many working processes will be disturbed by the application of this physical agents directive, and it may even render the use of some machines or processes impossible e.g. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners, spot and seam welding.
As a reminder, the task group aims at developing a note on the current problems met by industry, collect cases of problems linked to the current situation of non-harmonised national EAS schemes, prioritise the main problems, and propose possible ways to make progress. Two main points should be highlighted: the current systems constitute a barrier to free circulation of goods and they substantially limit innovation for the products concerned. This “white paper” is meant to be issued in the spring of 2011 and presented to the Commission with the objective of re-launching discussions at EU level. Developments to date • In a letter of March 2009 the Commission stated that the EAS had been cancelled. • The Commission confirmed that the EAS was not proceeding. The CPD continued to offer a framework for harmonization of practice at the European level, but Mandate M136 should be revised.
Construction Products Regulation (CPR) – Revision (no significant change since last Directives update) The new Construction Products Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 (repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC) was published in the OJEU (all language versions) on 4 April 2011. It entered into force on 24 April 2011, and is directly applicable in the Member States. However, most of the provisions (Articles 3 to 28, 36 to 38, 56 to 63, 65 and 66, and Annexes I, II, III and V) will apply from 1 July 2013, and transitional provisions are foreseen under article 66. The European Commission should now embark on the drafting of a guideline, and CEPMC (construction products association) will actively contribute to it.
The use of the Provisions of the CPD The construction products directive does not introduces new practices, it simply identifies common elements such as test methods to be used in conjunction with national arrangements There are however disadvantages: • It covers only national regulations • It does not cover all products • It does not eliminate differences in national schemes and acceptance levels are not laid down.
As a reminder the Commission have proposed this new text to remove the existing Directive with regulation. This could affect the pump industry has it is currently believed within Europump that pumps are not part of the Construction Products Directive Industry met in November 2009 to discuss the new proposed text. The Council is still pursuing discussions to adopt a political agreement and common position. Discussions will continue in the Working Group of the Council under the Spanish Presidency with the involvement of the European Commission. Orgalime advised its members to meet national representatives in the working group to continue lobbying on the points of concern for its sectors. Orgalime is currently updating its Position in view of this exercise. The BPMA and Europump will monitor this position closely
The 4 MS Initiative Faced with no EAS and limited benefits from the CPD the 4 member states (D, F, NL, UK) committed themselves to try to gain the advantages offered by the EAS by adopting common practices in their four countries. It is believed that this activity will offer wider benefits. Other member states could voluntarily adopt the practice being developed. The common practices will be offered to the commission as a possible basis for the regulatory guidance to CEN under M136. It is now reported that : • Some test methods are accepted by the commission • Further dialogue is taking place • Metallic products assessment practices now largely agreed with the commission and industry

Mandate M136 and future CEN work A second revised draft of M136 was presented to SCC in Jan 2010 and accepted . Main changes were the withdrawal of Annex IV on Dangerous substances and Annex V on EAS. A new Annex IV is to be written to: • Refer to WG3 work • Provide a general framework of regularity guidance to CEN harmonized standards.
The 4MS (France, Germany, Netherlands, UK) public seminar on harmonisation of hygienic requirements for materials and products in contact with drinking water took place in Berlin on 2 March 2011. The 4MS formalised their cooperation with a declaration of intent to harmonise their national regulations and at least adopt a common approach. They invited other EU countries to join. On metals, they are expected to issue a revised version of their report on metallic materials, which would include accepted (assessed) composition lists for alloys (brass, gunmetal, stainless steel) and which would provide a

providing real benefits, will not themselves achieve common practice across Europe. Most stakeholders support the introduction of a single scheme. During the recent Europump meetings in September 2011 it was reported by Profluid (French Association) that the Goal was to specify what test will be required so CE Marking could be placed on the products . The response from members of the group was they believed it would not be possible to CE products to the Drinking water directive and acceptance levels would stay at national level . It was agreed to contact the CEN Rappoteur Bill Harper for clarification on this issue . Below please find the response from Bill Harper As regards CE Marking, it is used with products to signify compliance with notified national regulations – in this case regulations covering the acceptance of products in contact with drinking water. The CE Marking can be applied in those countries (the 4MS and a few others) that have such regulations. It is not relevant in countries (the majority) that do not have (formal) regulations. The problem is that since national regulations vary, the CE Marking relevant to where the product is placed on the market is likely to be applicable only to that single country. There will be some benefit from the use of common test methods (and the results should accepted in different countries), but The CE Marking will not be a “universal passport” across all MS.
On WEEE, As a reminder and in summary, the Council agreed a closed scope for 6 years (Parliament agreed an open scope) after entry into force of the recast directive, meaning that recast WEEE would apply only to the 10 existing categories for 6 years. After 6 years, there will be an open scope including in principle “all EEE” with a possible shift to fewer product categories (Parliament agreed 5 categories), but a greater number of products within these categories, also possibly in the mechanical sector. Exclusions from the directive would include equipment designed to be sent into space or for research and development; large-scale stationary industrial tools; large-scale fixed installations; means of transport for persons or goods, excluding electric two-wheel vehicles which are not type-approved; non-road mobile machinery made available exclusively for professional use; medical devices, in vitro diagnostic medical devices and active implantable medical devices. The Commission can propose changes to the scope after an impact assessment during 3 years after entry into force (including the parameters to distinguish between large and small equipment). At the recent Europump meeting the discussion was again raised on would pumps be within scope of the revised directive . It is believed that the scope will be the same as the original WEEE Directive until 2018 , i.e. pumps are not in scope. The scope will be extended to any electrical item after 2018.
New Approach & Market Surveillance (NAMS) – revision On 22 November 2011, the Commission released the package for the alignment of 9 Directives with the New Legislative Framework aimed at improving product safety. The changes made for the alignment relate to definitions, obligations of economic operators, traceability requirements, conformity assessment bodies and procedures, CE marking, etc. The alignment should not result in any changes to technical content. However, the texts were reviewed and their formulation may be different. The Pressure Equipment Directive 1997/23/EC has been left out of the package which now covers only 9 directives (Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EEC; Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2004/108/EC; Simple Pressure Vessels Directive 2009/105/EC; Measuring Instruments Directive 2004/22/EC; Non-automatic Weighing Instruments Directive 2009/23/EC; Civil Explosives Directive 93/15/EEC; Pyrotechnic Articles Directive 2007/23/EC; ATEX Directive 94/9/EC on equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres; Lifts Directive 95/16/EC). European Parliament work will start in the Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee in early 2012 and the package could be adopted in late 2012. The Directives could then be expected to come into force at the end of 2014 after a transition period.
ENVIRONMENT WEEE AND ROHS DIRECTIVES 2002/96/EC & 2002/95/EC
On RoHS, Recast RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU has been published in the OJEU on 01.07.2011. It will enter into force on 21 July 2011. It will then have to be transposed into national law and will be applicable 18 months after entry into force, on 2 January 2013. Equipment that was outside the scope of Directive 2002/95/EC, but which would not comply with this Directive, may continue to be made available on the market until 22 July 2019. The new RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU had now been adopted by parliament. Swimming pool pumps will be included in scope other pumps are the same as the original RoHS directive.

On 11 March 2009, the EcoDesign Regulatory Committee approved new eco-design rules setting efficiency standards for industrial electric motors. Motors will have to meet minimum efficiency standards from 2011. The first phase will be introduced 16th June and motors must comply to IE2 efficiency levels. Tougher standards will apply to large motors from 2015 and all motors two years later, thus cutting the annual energy consumption of these engines by around 135 terawatt hours. At a recent Europump meeting the Italian Pump Association (Assopompe) raised an issue regarding the scope of Motors within the EuP . To explain further Article 1.2b states; “Motors completely integrated into product (for example gear, pump, fan or compressor) of which the energy performance cannot be tested independently from the product” A guideline has now been developed by Europump and is available from S Schofield upon request.
On the Candidate list, the Member State Committee (MSC) meeting in early December agreed unanimously to add eight Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) to the Candidate List. These substances include Chromium trioxide, acids generated from chromium trioxide and their oligomers, cobalt(II)sulphate, cobalt(II)dinitrate, cobalt(II)carbonate, cobalt(II)diacetate, 2-methoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol, which are either carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic (CMR) substances. However the MSC unanimously agreed that the three isomers of trichlorbenzene could not be identified as “PBT-like” substances under Article 57 (f) of REACH and should not be added to the candidate list. These decisions will soon be published on the ECHA website. Guidance documents can be found at REACH guidance documents (RIPs), and in particular the ECHA guidance on the requirements for substances in articles The BPMA have been working with other members of Europump to come up with Guideline for downstream users in the Pump industry. The final version of this document is available from S Schofield BPMA .
The EcoDesign Regulatory Committee approved by unanimity new eco-design rules applicable to glandless stand-alone and integrated circulators. After sustained lobbying efforts, the European Pump Manufacturers Association EUROPUMP succeeded in negotiating an acceptable text with some important modifications introduced at the last minute: the date of the second stage was set at 1 August 2015 instead of 1 January 2015; the Annex I benchmark was set at 0.20 instead of 0.18 which was technically incorrect; and the mention “putting into service” in article 1 (scope) was deleted as it would have meant that millions of circulators in wholesale stock would go to waste because they had already been placed on the market but not yet put into service at the time
Chromium Trioxide This is not law yet and the product can still be used! ECHA recommended that Chromates should be authorized, but it is up to the Commission to take the final decision. There are many consortiums attempting to influence the Commission on the use of Chromium Trioxide. The main consortium is an organization called laxness. For now members who wish to continue using this substance they need to apply to continue using Chromium Trioxide before

of implementation of the regulation. There are currently issues with regards to the term “pump head” and the repair of circulators which are being resolved
The defined scope is still awaited the initial meetings are expected early March 2012 and the study to continue for at least 30 months. In the UK we have now been advised that the National Measurements Office has been appointed as the market surveillance authority.
The Regulatory Forum met in Brussels 16th December to discuss the proposed legal text for the water pumps. Comments have been given by Europump and at the time of writing a defined outcome was still unknown. It is expected that the proposal from the commission will be the final outcome. • Phase 1 by January 1st 2013 and have a MEI of 0.1 (10% cut off) • Phase 2 would be introduced January 1st 2015 and would be a MEI of 0.4 ( 40% cut off) .
Energy Labelling Directive
(no significant change since last Directives update) Directive 2010/30/EU of 19 May 2010 on the indication by labelling and standard product information of the consumption of energy and other resources by energy-related products has been published in the Official Journal (L 153 – 18.06.2010). The directive entered into force on 20 May 2010, and will apply from 20 July 2011. Points (d), (g) and (h) of Article 5 (responsibilities of suppliers) will apply from 31 July 2011. Similarly to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, the text of the directive comes from an agreement reached by the Council and European Parliament on the Commission proposal for the recast of the Energy Labelling Directive. As a reminder, the main aspects of the agreed text include an extension to energy-related products having direct or indirect impact on energy consumption or other essential resources during use, and the layout of the label to remain an A to G colour scale, with the creation of three additional efficiency classes (A+, A++ and A+++) with a limit of seven. A rescaling of classes must take place when a significant proportion of products on the market achieve the two highest energy efficiency classes and when additional
The bench mark set by the commission is MEI of 0.7 (70% cut off) . The final text is awaited The contract for the new work items has been given to Atkins UK ( Dr Hugh Falkner) for the following lots ; Lot 28: Pumps (extended product approach including motors, VSD and controls, where appropriate) for private and public waste water (including all stages including buildings, networks and treatment facilities) and for fluids with high solids content Lot 29: Pumps (extended product approach including motors,

BPMA Activity Highlights 2011/12 energy efficiency measures; potential savings from smart grids; energy audits; combined heat and power... On financing, the Rapporteur suggests that Member States should establish financing facilities which would aggregate a mix of funds, through cohesion and structural funds; technical assistance and financial engineering funds; resources allocated to energy efficiency from the European Investment Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the Council of Europe Development Bank. The ITRE Committee vote is foreseen on 24 January 2012 and plenary vote on 17 April 2012. In the Council, many Member States are strongly opposed to binding targets and even to binding measures, as suggested by the European Commission as a compromise, and are requesting more flexibility. The European Parliament and the incoming Danish Presidency of the Council aim to reach a first reading agreement during the Danish Presidency (1 January to 31 July 2012).

savings may be achieved by further differentiating products. The effectiveness of the Directive and the implementing measures must be reviewed by the end of 2014. Suppliers’ information obligations under article 4 provide for the display of the label, a technical fiche in application of the directive and implementing measure (including built-in or installed products). BPMA need to ascertain if this will affect the labelling of Circulator Pumps . Suppliers will also be obliged to establish technical documentation, design calculations, test reports... and may use documentation already established in accordance with relevant Community legislation (i.e. the Ecodesign Directive). http://ec.europa.eu/energy/demand/legislation/doc/2008_02 _22/2008_consultation_energy_labelling_document_en.pdf
INTERNAL MARKET OUTDOOR NOISE DIRECTIVE
Repealing of the Energy Services Directive And proposed Energy Efficiency Directive
Directive 2000/14/EC (amended by the Directive 2005/88/EC). ( no significant change since last Directives update ) The European Commission proposal for a revision of Directive 2000/14/EC is not expected before 2012. An impact assessment for this revision is still ongoing and should be finalised by the end of 2011. A programming mandate for the attention of CEN is in preparation to review applicable standards under the directive, especially test codes
Energy Services 2006/32/EC
On 8 March 2011, the European Commission adopted the long-awaited Communication “Energy Efficiency Plan 2011”. It lists a range of measures to accelerate energy efficiency improvements as Europe will not meet its objective of a 20% improvement by 2020. At the current rate the EU will only improve its energy efficiency by 9% by 2020. The plan relies on public bodies to steer energy efficiency measures, focuses on buildings, energy and manufacturing industries (support SMEs with information and incentives on energy efficiency solutions and measures; exchange best practices among sectors; energy performance (ecodesign) requirements would be suitable for standard industrial equipment such as industrial motors, large pumps, compressed air, drying, melting, casting, distillation and furnaces; possible voluntary agreements in intensive industries and the ICT industry; orient research and innovation as catalysts for costeffective energy efficient technologies in industry), consumer products, transport, and calls for proper national and European financial support, notably through the Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan). The plan does not call for the EU’s 20% energy efficiency goal by 2020 to be binding, as requested by NGOs and even businesses. This was rejected by Member States, but the Commission threatens that mandatory national targets may be proposed in 2013 if the voluntary approach does not work. There will now be a full review of the energy services directive and a possible revision before the end of 2011 This Directive could help the industry with onsite energy audits.

United Kingdom - Out of scope Germany – Garden pumps included in scope other pumps out of scope Belgium – Garden pumps included ( definition given with electrical plug) Bulgeria- Currently looking at Circulators to be within scope France – No list of products given so it is assumed pumps are excluded Italy – Pumps currently out of scope
Directive on Energy Efficiency Following the European Commission proposal for a Directive on Energy Efficiency in June 2011 and the draft report in early October 2011 of the European Parliament Rapporteur Claude Turmes (Greens, Luxembourg, Industry Committee), 1800 amendments have been tabled in the ITRE (Industry) Committee. Compromise packages are being discussed and agreed amongst the Rapporteur and shadow Rapporteurs for the other political parties. An exchange of views on amendments in the ITRE Committee took place on 20 December 2011. The main topics for debate include the objective fixed to 2020 and not the 20% savings target itself fixed in the 2007 Council conclusions and based on a precise and absolute figure rather than a relative objective; the lack of common methodology for measurement; financing of

Historical Market Size and Growth – Long-Run Trends
Market size averages around $1.5 billion per year (around £975 million at 2010 exchange rates), with parts and repair accounting for almost 39% of the total. Overall market growth is relatively slow and dependent on replacement demand because the installed base is large in relation to the need for expanded plant capacity. Replacement demand is therefore much more important than suggested by parts and repair, and may account for as much as 75% of the market.
World Germany USA Italy France Japan Czech Rep. China Denmark Hungary Netherlands Belgium Spain India Sweden Brazil Norway Switzerland Turkey
Although overall market growth is slow, there can be shifts in the structure of demand because of changes in the relative growth rates of different end uses. For example, public sector construction resulted in a huge growth of demand since 1997 owing to the election of a Labour government, but this will unwind dramatically over the next few years. On the other hand, demand from oil and gas in the North Sea is in longrun decline, despite a short-term pick-up arising from the high oil price in 2008. The rapid build up of chemical plant capacity in the Middle East and Asia has adversely affected investment in the UK chemical industry.

Maintaining Productivity In such carefully balanced processes, a failure at any stage will therefore halt the entire process and have a direct impact on production.
By Paul Brooks of Weir Minerals Europe
The duration of the resulting period of down-time can vary significantly depending on whether it is immediately apparent what has caused the problem, how long it would take for qualified personnel to reach the site, the scale of the repairs required and the availability of replacement parts.
Wear and tear on equipment is unavoidable in wetprocess quarrying and mining. Paul Brooks of Weir Minerals Europe outlines how the right repair and maintenance strategy can minimise downtime and boost output.
In the most serious scenarios failures can cause processes to be down for a matter of days, with serious implications for the profitability of the operation.
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. In the same way, the overall efficiency of any mining or quarrying operation is the product of the performance delivered by each stage along the process, and any element that is not running smoothly has a bearing on overall productivity.
So what can be done to minimise the occurrence of these crises?
Recent years have seen significant technological advances in materials science, mechanical and electrical design and engineering and this has allowed dramatic improvements in the efficiency and lifespan of process equipment – as well as in ease of access to key parts to expedite maintenance and repair. But this is only part of the story and the highly demanding applications performed by process equipment will mean the system will always be subject to wear and tear – so it is equally important that the right repair and maintenance strategies are in place.
The newly launched WGR slurry pump incorporating a range of innovations that make maintenance quicker and easier. Nonetheless, a strong support strategy is still essential
Prevention rather than cure
By far the best way to mitigate the impact of failures is to put a proactive maintenance programme in place to minimise the chances of them occurring in the first place.
Scheduling regular system checks means the condition of critical parts can be tracked over time, allowing replacements to be made before excessive wear leads to a failure.
A Weir Minerals engineer at the company’s service centre in Essen, Germany
Unpleasant surprises?
In the past, the vast majority of process maintenance within quarries has been carried out solely on a reactive basis. There are, however, a number of disadvantages to this approach.
Although checking the condition of internal parts such as a pump’s impeller and lining may mean taking it out of action for a brief period, well-managed scheduled procedures require much less downtime than an unexpected reactive repair.
First and foremost among these is that it effectively means accepting that failures in the system will inevitably happen during the lifespan of the project.
How frequently these internal checks are carried out should be informed by a good knowledge of the average optimal lifespan of critical parts under given conditions and levels of operation. This will ensure that checks are performed often enough to guard against unexpected failure, but infrequently enough to keep downtime to a minimum.
It is important not to underestimate the significant impact that a failure of even a simple piece of equipment can have on the bottom line. Many modern processes run end to end, with flow rates at every stage carefully calculated to ensure material flows through the system without either excessive build-ups or the need to frequently stop and start equipment to control throughput.
There are also a wide range of checks that can be carried out during operation, which will alert operators to any potential problems without interruption to the process.
30
Maintaining Productivity continued
These include measurements of flow rates through key parts of the system, the energy consumption of pumps and temperature and vibration measurements of any moving parts. Monitoring these for changes over time will give a good indication of the health of the system and provide an early alert to any potential problems. It is also important to regularly check and, if necessary, adjust mechanical seals – particularly the glands that maintain the seals around the drive shafts of pumps.
Naturally, the scale of the proactive maintenance programme that is needed will vary significantly between different types of application and different scales of operation. Establishing the right level of monitoring or frequency of scheduled checks for any given process is key to striking the right balance between achieving peak reliability and over spending on unnecessary maintenance. There is no standard approach, as conditions and systems vary so much from site to site and different operations have widely differing demands in terms of performance margins.
Taking ownership
A key question that needs to be asked when planning a maintenance programme is who will perform the checks and accept responsibility for them being carried out properly?
Traditionally, the relationship between operators and their equipment suppliers was purely transactional – with the client taking full responsibility for the performance and maintenance of any equipment.
However, aftermarket support has become much more important in today’s minerals processing industry and, increasingly, clients are looking to their equipment suppliers to provide on-going maintenance support and take responsibility for the optimal performance of systems. This shift has meant a marked change in the way many suppliers interact with the customers, as providing an effective repair and maintenance service means being able to regularly attend sites to provide scheduled support and also to respond rapidly if reactive repairs are required.
Relationships that operate in this way are much more challenging to run from a distance, and virtually impossible without an effective team of reactive repair engineers stationed relatively nearby. Having quick-response teams on the ground ready to attend to any issues can be a very expensive proposition, significantly adding to the challenge of competing with other suppliers with a local presence.
Going forward
It is important that operators of all sizes are aware of the services now offered by the pump supply industry in terms of proactive maintenance and monitoring and the cost benefits these strategies can provide.
The commercial and environmental benefits of keeping processes operating at peak performance are clear. However, for many of the managers we work with the biggest draw of a proactive approach is the peace of mind that the process is in good shape and that an unexpected and expensive repair is not going to cause chaos on site. ■

Lower pumping cost with synchronous reluctance motors One of the most promising forms of SM is the synchronous reluctance motor or SynRM. A SynRM motor has neither a conducting short-circuit cage as with the induction motor, nor permanent magnets, nor a field excitation winding. Instead, the magnetic principle of reluctance is utilised.
By Ian Allan of ABB Limited
No rotor losses make for cool running
A new motor based on established technology is allowing pump manufacturers to offer their customers higher efficiency and greater reliability.
This principle is the basis of a new high efficiency, low loss, cool running motor, developed by ABB. The motor uses an innovative rotor technology that virtually eliminates losses and combines it with conventional stator technology, which has been proven in thousands of IMs worldwide.
In these environmentally conscious and cost cutting times, pump manufacturers are under growing pressure to help their customers cut the running costs of pumping applications. One of the fundamental parts of any pumping application is the motor, a device which despite its long pedigree, still offers great scope for improvement.
The virtual elimination of losses means that the SynRM runs cooler than other motor designs. A motor with this technology can be operated at the IEC standardised power level for the given frame size. In this case, the variablespeed drive (VSD) efficiency gain ranges from more than 5 percent units for single kW machines to about 0.5 percent for the largest motors (frame 315).
Most pump applications need a motor that is as efficient as possible and has the longest possible lifetime while simultaneously not increasing maintenance demands or failures. This is particularly important in applications where the pumping system may be in remote, difficult to access areas or where a reliable supply of the pumped material, such as drinking or cooling water, may be paramount.
This means that, where an IM would have run at class-F temperature rise (105 K), the SynRM operates merely at class-A temperature rise (60 K). This low temperature operation improves the lifetime of the bearings - because the rotor runs cooler than other technologies, the bearings also run much cooler. Since much of the heat conduction through the shaft is eliminated, the bearing temperature, particularly on the drive-end, is reduced. Comparing a SynRM with an IM at 6 kW, this can be as much as a 30 K reduction, with an approximately 15 to 20 K reduction typical over the entire range.
Back to basics
The search for a motor that would be more efficient, smaller, with a long lifetime and offering low maintenance, while also being perfectly adapted to low voltage AC drive operation, has gone back to a design that was first developed in 1923.
This makes the motor much more reliable. Bearing failure accounts for around 70 percent of unplanned motor outages, so customers will benefit from the longer greasing intervals and higher reliability offered by the new motors. Even if a bearing eventually does need replacing, there are no magnetic forces involved, unlike in a permanent magnet motor. This makes it as easy to change the bearing as it is in an IM.
The story starts with the the synchronous motor (SM), which, with a 4-pole rotor operated at 50 Hz, rotates in synchronism with the supply at exactly 1500 rpm. This compares well with the equivalent induction motor (IM), which rotates only at ~1475 rpm for an equivalent power rating. In modern IMs, losses in the rotor amount to 20 to 35 percent of the total motor losses.
By contrast, synchronous rotation eliminates most of these associated losses, giving an increase in efficiency of about 8 percent for a 3 kW motor. It also offers a 20 to 40 percent increase in power and torque density for the same insulation temperature class.
An additional gain is the reduced heat load on nearby parts, particularly in closed cabinets. Another good feature of the SynRM is that it has an excellent partial load efficiency curve, which is typical of synchronous machines the efficiency remains high even at partial load, a feature particularly appreciated in fan and pump applications.
Designed for variable-speed drives
Although the SynRM motor principle dates back to the 1920s, the motor type was not industrially adapted primarily due to the lack of direct-on-line starting capability. Now, with the use of VSDs, this obstacle has been removed. As the three-phase currents in the rotor are sinusoidal, the same types of VSDs used to control induction motors can also control this motor type. This is an important point, as VSD operation improves the energy efficiency in pump applications by adapting the motor speed to match variations in the load and eliminate the need for throttling. Energy consumption is further reduced due to the SynRM’s high efficiency. Because currents in the stator windings are sinusoidal, just as in IMs, the rotor can run smoothly and efficiently in continuous motion. The motor’s high efficiency makes it equivalent to the IEC’s IE4 rating. Compact and easy to fit even in the most restricted of spaces, the SynRM allows pump manufacturers to provide an improved pumping solution to end users, with better energy saving and higher reliability than standard motor options. ■

Peristaltic pumps for all occasions from its accurate dosing capability, the peristaltic pump is economic with the liquid pumped because at the end of the processing cycle or operation, the pumping motion can be reversed and any fluid remaining in the hose/tube can be returned to its source for future use and the tube/hose is drained.
By Tony Peters of AxFlow Limited Choosing the pump type that best satisfies a fluid handling application is not necessarily a straightforward exercise, as there will be a large number of factors that will influence pump performance which need to be considered. Not least of these is the type of fluid being pumped.
Shoes or Rollers
The decision to opt for a shoe or roller peristaltic pump is largely dependent on the application and the operating pressures required for the application. Then there is the power consumption issue to be considered. Roller technology is far more suited to lower pressure applications, typically up to 4 bar, and is usually limited to a maximum of 8 bar. Therefore with roller peristaltic pumps smaller drives are required which results in less power being consumed. Roller technology is easier to maintain, with simple hose replacement and less waste fluids due to the elimination of hose lubricant. Shoe compression pumps are more suited for operating pressures up to 16 bar and higher flowrates, making it the obvious choice for medium and higher pressure applications. This pump is very much a robust, workhorse and built for the most arduous of operating conditions and fluids.
Whilst there are any numbers of applications that will demand a specific pump type, there will be just as many if not more where a relatively simple low maintenance pump type will suffice. The peristaltic, or hose, pump slots neatly into this category. Suitable for applications ranging from food and pharmaceuticals through to sludges and slurries in wastewater and mining, the peristaltic pump delivers leakfree operation and high levels of dosing accuracy. The main features of the peristaltic pumps include: • Sealless design • Valve-free • Dry self-priming • Gentle pumping action • Dry running • High suction lift • Abrasion resistant • Low maintenance • No slip • Reversible
The peristaltic pump is a positive displacement pump where the fluid is contained within a hose or tube contained within a casing. The fluid in the hose or tube is moved into and out of the tube/hose by the action of rotating rollers or shoes which alternatively compress and relax the tube/hose. This action forms a vacuum behind the roller or shoe drawing fluid into the hose while the next roller or shoe gently pushes the fluid forward though the hose. This ‘peristaltic’ process ensures that the fluid is dosed accurately and without any variation in the volume. Pump wear is concentrated on the hose component, which is quick and inexpensive to replace in situ. AxFlow’s realAx RP high pressure shoe technology hose pump.
The peristaltic pump is a mature product and a proven technology that has evolved over several decades. Making improvements has, therefore, presented a challenge to pump designers. However, in 2012, AxFlow introduced a new design of roller technology peristaltic pump offering users a combination of low pressure and low capacity. This new pump also addressed the issue of making maintenance easier by a redesign of the inspection window on the pump housing. Generally, the inspection window of a peristaltic pump enables the operator to check the oil lubricant level in the pump housing. The new design of the inspection window, which is also incorporated in AxFlow’s range of shoe compression hose pumps makes it easy for the operator to access the rotor and the hub and easy to change the number of shims in order to accommodate pressure changes demanded by the application. This facility eliminates the need to remove the front cover of the pump case, thereby saving valuable time and making maintenance easier.
AxFlow’s realAx ISI Series roller technology peristaltic pump.
Because the fluid is always contained within the tube/hose, it never comes into contact with the pump’s moving parts. This has the additional benefit of making the pump suitable for hygienic applications as there is no opportunity for leakage of the fluid and subsequent contamination. Apart
Whether the application involves dosing small, precise quantities of fluid at low pressures or high accuracy pumping of large volumes of viscous or abrasive products, peristaltic and hose pumps provide an excellent solution. ■

Triplex positive displacement pump â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the best choice for high pressure liquid stream smooth flow rate
By Brian Hubbard of CAT Pumps (U.K.) Ltd In any application where a high pressure liquid stream is required the triplex positive displacement (PD) pump is arguably the most suitable choice. Such is the versatility of the technology, the triplex PD pump can be found providing high levels of accuracy and operating safety in many applications within the chemical processing industry, where both benign and corrosive liquids are encountered. Triplex PD plunger and piston pumps should be the first consideration when high pressure and high operating efficiency is required. Where the application pressure exceeds 15 bar the efficiency for roto-dynamic pumps falls rapidly, unlike triplex PD pumps which actually increase in efficiency at higher pressures. Furthermore, many designs of rotary positive displacement pumps find it difficult to achieve even 10 bar unless the liquid is viscous. Conversely, the triplex PD pump is most widely used in applications where the pumped liquid is of low to medium viscosity and has little inherent lubricity, factors that contribute to a highly diverse range of applications, including process flows, dosing/metering, pressure testing and cleaning. Although by their very nature, triplex PD pumps can introduce a small ripple in the discharge flow rate, applications that require an extremely smooth flow and pressure will benefit from the installation of a gas precharged accumulator as a pulsation dampener. This can reduce the ripple effect to around 2%. The correct functioning of the dampener depends on the correct sizing, but also on the accuracy of the gas pre-charge pressure. Pulsation dampeners are normally supplied already charged with inert nitrogen gas and the ideal pre-charge
pressure is around 60% of the pump operating pressure. But if the pump does not run at a single pressure but across a range of pressures, it is essential that the precharge pressure in the pulsation dampener is no more that 80% of the lowest operating pressure in order to prevent damage to the dampener. The pulsation dampener bladder contains gas, so if pressure on the liquid side drops or comes close to that of the gas inside the bladder, the bladder will stretch and completely fill the chamber. This creates an impact between the bladder and the inside of the chamber, which will lead to premature failure of the bladder. The bladder always needs to be partially compressed, so keeping the liquid pressure around 20% higher will prevent the contact between the bladder and chamber wall. The correct advice is always to ensure that the end-user provides accurate information on the operating pressure range. Far too often, only the highest pressure level is stipulated, when in actual fact we need to know the full pressure range in order to set the pre-charge pressure. The advantages of triplex PD pumps lie in their high efficiency, their ability to generate high pressure and to produce constant volume irrespective of the pressure. Consequently, where an application demands controlled variable flow, they are eminently suited to variable speed drives. Using a triplex PD pump with a variable speed drive can provide very high efficiencies, up to 95% depending on the pump type design and how it has been installed, across a wide range of flow rates and pressures.â&#x2013;

H VA C P u m p s – O l d h a b i t s t h a t h o l d b a c k performance
By Wayne Rose of Armstrong Technology for commercial scale HVAC pumps has taken major steps forward in recent years, particularly in variable speed pumping. Approaches to HVAC system design have been slower to adapt however. It’s a matter of ‘old habits dying hard’. But with the increased need for carbon reduction and a greater transparency of system efficiency, some traditional HVAC practices must be rethought to ensure that systems don’t underperform throughout their lifetimes. Much of the problem arises because systems designers make decisions to ‘be on the safe side’. Several years ago, when there wasn’t the same level of urgency for energy efficiency, this may have been a sensible strategy. But today, sustainability is king, and inefficiency costs.
Figure 1
Figure 1 shows a pump curve for an application with a system design duty of 200 l/s at 200 kpa. Traditionally, a pump with a 75kW motor would be specified for this application with a second 75kW motor pump installed as full duty back-up and standing idle. A total of 150kW installed.
Oversizing
The most obvious outdated practice, of course, is oversizing of HVAC pumps. We all know this offers a security blanket for the system designer, but a quick lifecycle calculation will quickly prove that specifying unnecessary capacity leads to a significant waste of energy and higher bills. A less obvious practice leading to waste however involves the impeller rather than the pump as a whole. When optimising efficiency of medium and large pumps for fixed speed systems it is crucial to ensure the impeller is perfect for the duty rather than a ‘near fit’. Armstrong trims impellers as a matter of course, but the same can not be said for all pump manufacturers. To standardise their product ranges, some manufacturers only offer the ‘nearest fit’ rather than machining each impeller. Significant wastage of energy can result throughout the pump’s lifetime, as the impeller size will always be selected to over-perform, leading to oversizing of the pump.
Figure 2
At commissioning stage the problem intensifies, when the engineer throttles the pump to get back down to the desired design flow. This, of course, hikes up the head. The pump motor has to work harder, absorbing more energy than planned, to create a head (and maintain an operating point) that nobody actually wanted in the first place!
In the parallel pumping alternative (Figure 2) duty is split between two smaller pumps, each fitted with 37kW motors (a total of 75kW installed compared to 150kW). In the event of a failure of one of the pumps, the remaining pump, as is shown in Figure 3, is capable of delivering 167
Unnecessary stand-by
Another approach which should be reviewed is the tendency to design HVAC pump installations to incorporate full-duty stand-by, (with all the carbon and physical footprint that entails), without first exploring better alternatives. Removing back-up completely would be unwise, but parallel pumping (covering the duty with two smaller pumps) can, in many applications, effectively halve the carbon footprint relating to the manufacture of the equipment itself, and halve the kWs installed. System designers often discount this alternative because they assume that, in a parallel pumping scenario, if one pump fails, the remaining pump will only cover 50% of the duty. This is not so. Half the installed kW does not equal half the capability.

l/s, which is 83% of the full design duty, while the other pump undergoes maintenance. As the majority of systems require full design duty very rarely, the impact on the system will be minimal during maintenance. In addition to reducing carbon footprint, the two smaller, lighter pumps are easier to install and maintain. Upfront cost is lower and the variable speed drives are smaller, as is the electrical supply cabling. Developments in technology such as split coupling of pumps with external seals also reduce the time needed for routine maintenance to minutes rather than hours, increasing uptime. Figure 4
Control and operating temperatures
Exploring the potential of parallel pumping leads us to a wider discussion of control strategies. In HVAC applications such as space heating we are dealing with part loads. Typically we size the plant for design day conditions – capacity based control. But these conditions are rarely experienced in temperate climates. So it makes more sense to try to match boiler load to the building demand – demand based control. This requires a significant shift in thinking however in an industry sector that has always used boiler capacity as the starting point.
Practicalities
Finally, it also pays to consider the latest practical developments with regard to installation and physical footprint. 3D graphic modelling (see Figure 4) frequently identifies opportunities to reduce system pipework. Unnecessary civil engineering work can also be avoided by locating vertical inline pumps in the pipework rather than building concrete inertia bases. The latest pump trims can also perform multiple functions, reducing the number of components and connections required. These reduce physical footprint and installation costs significantly.
Sticking with traditional operating temperatures can also lead to inefficiency. In North America and the UK, low temperature hot water heating systems were traditionally designed with a supply temperature of 80°C (≈180°F) and a return of 70°C (≈160°F). But it pays to challenge this thinking. In Continental Europe 80°C (≈180°F) supply and 60°C (≈140°F) was the norm. This doubling of the system ∆t immediately halves the flow required.
So in summary, the latest pump technology can go a long way towards lower carbon HVAC, but to fully benefit from the capabilities, some of the traditional ideas about designing HVAC systems have to be cast aside. ■
For example, in a system with a heat load of 240kW, with a ∆t of 10°C, the flow required would be: kW 240 = 5.7 l/s ∆t x sp.ht cap.
10 x 4.2
With a ∆t of 20°C the flow required would be: 240
20 x 4.2
= 2.85 l/s
This has a dramatic effect on pipe sizing, pump sizing, friction losses, electrical power consumption and lifecycle cost. It is true that the higher ∆t reduces the mean temperature from 75 to 70°C. Today, however, building air tightness and thermal insulation are vastly improved so there is little impact on emitter size. The tradition of using 80°/70°C operating temperatures also impacts significantly on boiler performance. Gas fired condensing boilers achieve ultra efficiency by extracting latent heat from the flue gases. This is done by dropping the temperature of the flue gases below the dew point, which for natural gas is around 54°C. So to operate in condensing mode, a return temperature of 54˚C or below is required. More effective maximum system temperatures would therefore be 70˚C supply and 50˚C return or, to condense continuously, 50° supply and 30° return. Designing the system for 80°C supply 70°C return means the condensing boiler will never actually condense!

Determining Electric Motor Loading is Essential for Energy Efficiency ... example, a 10kW motor with a 1.15 service factor can handle an 11.5kW load for short periods of time without incurring significant damage. Although many motors have service factors of 1.15, running the motor continuously above rated load reduces efficiency and motor life. In addition, the motor must never be operated in an overloaded state when the voltage is below nominal, or when cooling is impaired by altitude, high ambient temperature, or dirty motor surfaces.
By Marek Lukaszczyk of WEG Electric Motors (UK) Ltd Determining that electric motors are properly loaded enables users to make informed decisions about when to replace them; and decisions about which replacements to choose. Measuring motor loads is relatively quick and easy with the right equipment, and every company with a significant motor stock should be looking to perform a motor load and efficiency analysis as part of their preventative maintenance and energy conservation programmes. Analysis is necessary because there is not much point replacing existing standard AC electric motors with energy efficient types if the motors are mismatched or oversized for the loads that they are intended to serve. Too often, motors are oversized or have been rewound several times, leading to gross inefficiencies in their operation. As a result, it is imperative that before any replacement is considered, the actual loads served by existing motors are determined, together with their annual hours of operation.
WEG W22X Motor
Efficiency is also lost when motors are run either above or below their design voltages. The result of over-voltage is a lower power factor, which reduces overall motor effectiveness. The same is true of motors that are operated at less than 95% of their design voltage. They typically lose 2 to 4 points of efficiency, and also suffer service temperature increases of up to 70C, greatly reducing motor insulation life and impairing reliability.
Armed with all the above knowledge, the recommendation is that motor users should survey and test all of their motors that operate over 1000- hours per year. Then, using the analysis results, divide the motors into the following categories:
45kW – 4 pole motor WEG Motor with Councillor Paul Thompson, Middlesbrough Council’s Executive Member for Streetscene Services and Transport (in the suit) and Operations Manager, Mark Westwood.
• Motors that are significantly oversized and underloaded: replace these with more efficient, properly sized models at the next opportunity, such as scheduled plant downtime.
Most electric motors are designed to run at 50% to 100% of their rated load, with maximum efficiency around 75% of rated load. Thus, a 10kW- motor has an acceptable load range of 5kW to 10kW, with peak efficiency at 7.5 kW. As a general rule, high efficiency motors garner the maximum savings when they are loaded in excess of 75% of full load, and are operated more than 4,000 hours a year.
• Motors that are moderately oversized and underloaded— replace with more efficient, properly sized models - wait until they fail.
• Motors that are properly sized but standard efficiency— replace most of these with energy-efficient models; again, wait until they fail.
The problem with motor efficiency is that it tends to decrease dramatically below about 50% load, which is bad news when one considers that as little as 20% of the electric motors in the UK are running at their full rated input, due to oversizing. It is also bad news in terms of energy costs, as it has been calculated that a single percentage point increase in efficiency will save lifetime energy costs generally equivalent to the purchase price of the motor.
One problem with this strategy is that is often difficult to determine the characteristics of motors that have been in service for some time. It is not uncommon for the nameplate on the motor to be lost or painted over. In addition, if the motor has been rewound, there is a probability that the motor efficiency has been reduced.
Whilst oversizing of motors is the most common problem, under sizing can be just as damaging, because an undersized motor is likely to be overloaded causing it to overheat, lose efficiency, and (probably) fail prematurely with costly ramifications for production. This problem can arise where system costs are tight, and users interpret motor service factors too liberally.
When the nameplate data is missing or unreadable, efficiency values must be determined at the operating load point for the motor. This involves using power, amperage, or slip measurements to identify the load imposed on the operating motor, then obtaining a motor part-load efficiency value. Finally, if direct-read power measurements are available, derive a revised load estimate using both the power measurement at the motor
A service factor is a multiplier that indicates how much a motor can be overloaded under ideal ambient conditions. For

UK Pump Market Prospects 2012-2016 Future Prospects

terminals and the part-load efficiency value as shown in Equation 1. Equation 1.
In the UK the LibDem-Con coalition is attempting to tackle the huge government deficit through a combination of tax increases and cuts in public spending. Cuts in public sector investment will be severe, with a large impact on demand for pumps for building services.
Load = Pi x n kW
Where: Load = Pi = n = kW =
Output power as a % of rated power Three-phase power in kW Efficiency as operated in % Nameplate power rating
The chart shows the sharp fall in the pump market 20089. Although there was a recovery in 2010/11, market size by 2016 will remain below the peak reached in 2007. The end use sectors hit hardest by recession were chemicals and general industry. Within general industry, demand from construction related sectors, such as building services and construction dewatering, were worst affected. Power generation is the only end use sector expected to grow significantly relative to other sectors, owing to the urgent need to replace existing coal and nuclear plant capacity. However, the continued vacillation by the government over energy policy, given a further twist by the nuclear power plant crisis in Japan, will defer growth in power generation until 2012/13 at the earliest. ■
For rewound motors, an adjustment to efficiency values is required to reflect that rewound motor efficiency is less than that of the original motor. To reflect typical rewind losses, two points should be subtracted from a standard motor efficiency on smaller motors (<30kW), and one point for larger motors. However, it must be stated that rewind companies with the best quality-control practices can often rewind with no significant efficiency degradation at all. ■ UK Pump Market Prospectus 2012-2016 (continued from page 29)
China aside, the main sources of imports are Germany, USA, Italy, France and Japan. Imports from the Czech Republic and Hungary have grown rapidly in recent years. Imports from India, Brazil and Turkey are also growing rapidly.
Competitiveness, given the high level of the £ sterling 2003-2008, is an important issue, which partly explains the faster growth of imports relative to exports 2003-8. The large depreciation in the sterling exchange rate since 2008 has boosted the competitiveness of UK exports relative to imports and export growth should, in principle, outstrip the growth on imports over the next five years. But the recent weakness of the Euro in 2012 may persist and erode the UK gain in competitiveness.

T h e We s t w o r t h P u m p i n g S y s t e m E f f i c i e n c y I n d e x Gavin explains how his index works:
“The aim of the Westworth Index is to provide a measure of pump system efficiency on a scale of 1 to 100. For example, if a pumping system scores 90 then we can assume that the system uses its energy very efficiently. A low score indicates that there is room for improvement. In my experience, systems rarely score higher than 60 which means that for every £1 spent, at least 40p, and often much more, is unnecessary.
Xylem answers call for a new industry-wide efficiency index By Gavin Westworth of Xylem Water Solutions UK Ltd Xylem, a world leader in water technology, has responded to the need for a method of measuring the efficiency of a complete pumping system. With energy efficiency and innovation at the very core of its products and services, Xylem was able to use its expertise and industry knowledge to produce an index that would meet the criteria required by the industry.
“This index can be used on any water pumping system and, whilst it is not intended to be accurate to any number of decimal places, it gives a ‘first pass’ assessment of whether the complete pumping system is working well or if there is scope for investigation into how it uses energy.”
Unveiling the formula - known as the Westworth index Xylem expert and UK Energy Manager Gavin Westworth, took to the stage at a recent Defra meeting to demonstrate that our method of calculating system efficiency was simple and effective, and can be used throughout the UK and Ireland.
(continued on page 42)
The sewage pumping systems group was set up for one of Defra’s pilot product “roadmaps”. The roadmap process involves examining the lifecycle environmental impacts of a product and existing actions to tackle them, identifying areas for improvement, and then working with relevant stakeholders to secure voluntary actions to find a solution. The sewage pumping systems group identified the lack of a metric for comparing energy efficiency of pumping systems as a key issue. Gavin presented his proposed formula at the end of February and the Westworth index was enthusiastically received.

Have you spoken to your pumps today? • if there is a warning or a ‘call to action’ that needs to be acted upon which may be to provide proactive maintenance or to resolve a situation before it becomes a problem.
By: Linda Dingley of Grundfos Pumps Ltd
Being aware at the earliest stage of any issue with any M&E equipment can be important and indeed in some instances vital.
Building Management Systems (BMS) in one form or another have been employed for as long as commercial buildings have existed. The original basic systems were controlled by physically shovelling coal into coal-fired boilers or opening water pipe valves manually to enable heated water to flow through a radiator circuit.
Another plus regarding these platforms is that the new pump communication systems now allow people to have access to communicate with their plant equipment via an application that is integrated within other communication mediums. This is important as previously it was sometimes necessary to buy a programming tool that had no additional functionality.
It wasn’t until the 1970s that BMS in their present form first started to appear. This was due to the advent of “modem”, or “modulator-demodulator” which allowed analogue signals to be digitised so that they could be communicated over long distances with a high degree of accuracy.
The next generation
An example of how far this technology has come is just about to launch onto the pump market. This newly developed e-pump system communication tool offers the option of being loaded directly on to an iPod or a smart phone. The technology can be used in conjunction with an iPad and will also work with both iPhones and Android phones.
Today, these systems control and monitor various aspects including a building’s mechanical and electrical equipment such as heating, ventilation, lighting and fire systems. A BMS consists of software and hardware; the software programme is usually configured in a hierarchical manner, using such protocols as C-bus and Profibus. BMS can also be integrated using Internet protocols and standards such as XML, BACnet and LonWorks.
In short this next generation will offer the options of:
• full pump control over all aspects of e-pump(s) performance. Allows you to monitor all relevant pump data and increased manageability, change settings etc.
Systems linked to a BMS typically represent approx. 70% of a building’s energy use. This is why BMS systems are critical components in managing energy demand and as pump systems are an important factor, as they form part of this equation.

Why would you want to communicate with your pumps?
The increasing levels of sophistication and technology advances that are available in all things are equally being reflected within the pump market.
But why would you want or need to communicate with your pumps? In particular if you are a professional end-user like a facility manager or service manager/installer there are a wide range of circumstances when this would be beneficial. For example:
• if you needed to modify the functionality of a pump or pumps to adapt the comfort levels and to fit with energy needs • because you are not physically in the same place as the pump system(s), but you need to able to interact with them

• information and assistance the user-friendly interface gives extensive information and assistance. The new technology will work with e-pumps and communicate both via radio and infra red technology. It provides live pump data feeds (duty point, power consumption, speed, temperature etc.).
Initial feedback from the working group at the recent meeting organised by Defra was positive and signifies the potential for the Westworth Pumping System Efficiency Index to be used across the UK and Europe. Peter Lewington, Managing Director for Xylem UK concludes: “Gavin has demonstrated a level of skill and technical expertise that our specialists at Xylem use on a daily basis and we hope this easy-to-use tool will give all industries involved in transporting liquids the benchmark against which they can assess their energy consumption and make balanced decisions on where savings can be made and what measures are required to achieve them.”
• stay in touch quick-links to relevant documentation including online sizing and replacement tools.
• save time and effort offers features such as an in-built pdf generator that can store reports.
“Without a doubt, it is the forward thinking and innovative nature of our experts like Gavin that has made Xylem the world leader it is today.” ■
Talking is good
Today being able to access information and communicate instantly is something we all take for granted. The scope of that communication and the tools you can have available to access data is growing month on month.
The ability to be able to speak to your pumps may not have been high on your agenda – but with the latest advances and the range of options that are now opening up that allow for a growing number of two-way communication applications – you may wonder how you ever managed without it. ■
