BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 modelling should eradicate oversizing in the future, however for many years to come the installed base which is believed to be 10 times the size of the pumps sold each year will require attention.

Energy Efficiency Developments For many years it has been recognised that the installed base of pumps across all industries and sectors are generally oversized. If a pump has a control valve or orifice place on or close to the discharge of the pump then it is oversized and these components are being fitted to restrict the flow of the pump. Unfortunately in many systems this is not identified and the pump operates inefficiently wasting energy and affecting the reliability of the pump.

To this end the BPMA visited Defra and DECC advising of the potential energy savings possible within pumping systems installed base. The request from UK Government was to bring together a training structure that could be used and subsequently prove that a trained student could identify potential energy savings within pumping systems. The BPMA recognised the importance of using independent training and exam and subsequently developed the Certified Pump System Auditor Scheme which incorporates the DOE QSPSAT training. Please see our website http://www.bpmacpsa.co.uk/ which offers details of the scheme and training.

So why does this happen?

Many studies have been carried out to see why pumps are purchased oversized and unfortunately it comes down to human indecision throughout the engineering and purchasing process. When it is recognised that a pump will be required to move a liquid from A to B generally a process engineer will size the system requirements and also the pump . To ensure the pump will meet its duty requirements a little extra is added and unfortunately this happens at each point during the purchasing process and it is not unusual to have pumps 20 -30% larger than the system actually requires.

This structure was put together and subsequent audits carried out at 3 major end users. The results which included two audits offering >90% savings were presented to EEDO (DECC) in July 2012. The BPMA chose to use the only known independent pump system training which was developed by the Department of Energy (DOE) in the USA. This uses a “free” downloadable piece of software see http://www1.eere.energy.gov/ manufacturing/tech_deployment/software_psat.html

This is not something specific to one sector it is across all pumping systems in the installed base across the world . The potential energy savings in resolving this issue across Europe alone are estimated to be in the region of 59 TWh (i.e. 6 large power stations).

The BPMA have an agreement with the DOE and currently bring their approved trainers to the UK to carry out the pump system training. Since the concept of the CPSA scheme the BPMA have now trained over 70 Individuals.

The training is suitable for those who work with pump systems or are looking to make considerable savings within their respective industry. These are likely to be but not restricted to Manufacturers, Distributors, Energy Consultants, Contractors and End Users. ■

IE2 HIGH-EFFICIENCY ATEX MOTORS

So what is and has already been done to resolve this huge problem?

4942 en - 2012.05 / a

In Europe the Commission has and will continue to introduce product related legislation(ErP) on energy efficiency that will slowly improve the installed base and help the pump operate at its Best Efficiency Point ( Extended Product Approach). It has also been recognised that the installed base needs to be dramatically improved and during 2012 the European Commission introduced the Energy Efficiency Directive which Mandates Energy Audits within;

Leroy-Somer, the leading manufacturer of high-efficiency drive systems, is offering innovative high performance IE2 solutions designed for ATEX environments, IE3 premium efficiency motors and Dyneo® super premium permanent magnet synchronous variable speed drive systems.

BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM)

APPRENTICESHIPS

In early 2013 we were contacted by The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) with regards to Building Information Modelling.

MAKING THE MOST OF THE “AGE“GRANT

The Apprenticeship Grant for Employers (AGE) which aims to assist employers of 16 to 24 year olds has now been improved to give more eligible employers a helping hand in order to offer young people employment through the Apprenticeship programme.

Level 1 Building Information Modelling has been used in UK for some time. It involves 3-D modelling, often termed 3-D CAD. UK construction now faces Level 2 Building Information Modelling (BIM). It promises to transform the design, construction and operation of buildings by involving all participants in a ‘complete’ digital model of a building. Here, ‘complete’ means that the geometry of Level 1 BIM ‘objects’ is augmented by full supporting data in the common model. Thus the Level 2 model ‘tells the whole story’ - by containing (alongside 3-D spatial information) product specification and performance data. It becomes the repository of all data - of immense value in design, construction, commissioning, operational management and decision making at every stage.

Skills Minister John Hayes has announced that a number of the restrictions on the scheme have now been eased, meaning the AGE grant is now available to many more SME’s - and for the hire of more than one apprentice.

The National Apprenticeship Service will provide a grant of £1,500 for up to 40,000 Apprenticeships with employers that have up to 1000 employees, who are recruiting 16 to 24 year olds. The move is expected to encourage employers to take on new apprentices, with the £1,500 payment being made in addition to the training costs of the Apprenticeship framework which are met in full for young people aged 16 to 18 and 50% for those aged 19 to 24.

The UK Government has announced that it will require BIM to be used on all public projects (about 40% of the UK construction market) before the end of 2015. Some private sector clients have already adopted it, albeit in less data-rich form, but they and others will likely follow Government’s lead.

The AGE Grant: What’s new?

* Companies with up to 1000 employees are now eligible to apply (this has been increased from the previous limit which was for companies with up to 250 employees)

BPMA members (variously) offer Level 1 BIM (3-D CAD) models of their products. But at the moment none offers product models with the fulsome embedded data required by Level 2.

* Companies can now claim for up to 10 apprentices, not just 1 as was previously the case

As Level 2 BIM crystallises, it is time that UK manufacturers seriously engage with it. Otherwise they face the threat that their products will not be used where Level 2 BIM is mandated because procurers, required to provide full BIM data to their clients, will inevitably turn to those whom provide it.

* The £1,500 will come as a single payment, not in two payments as it was done previously * Eligibility was previously restricted to companies who had never taken on an apprentice, however now companies are eligible if they have not taken on an apprentice in the last year

The CIBSE Group is developing a simple means of ‘capturing’ product data electronically. It involves creating product data templates - standard questionnaires. Manufacturers, by completing the questionnaire for their products, effectively produce an ‘electronic catalogue’, directly usable in Level 2 BIM. The templates will be written in Excel, so manufacturers will not need much BIM ‘know how’ to involve. Further, they’ll only have to describe a product once to serve all BIM software systems and users. Manufacturer’s IPR in their algorithms should not be compromised in the way that the draft ISO standard appears to seek.

Where can I find out more information? To get more information about taking on an apprentice and the AGE grant, visit the Apprenticeships website—www.apprenticeships.org.uk/ Employers/Steps-to-make-it-happen/Incentive.aspx or call the National Apprenticeships Service Employer helpline on 08000 150 600.

• WEEE & RoHS DIRECTIVES 2002/96/EC & 2002/95/EC

However, it is crucial, if CIBSE’s templates are to get traction, that they are quickly embraced by UK manufacturing and construction. CIBSE representatives attended a BPMA meeting to explain the current situation and their proposals on how to get BPMA member feedback and support. ■

The new RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) had now been adopted by the European Parliament. The conclusion of scope is that swimming pool pumps will now be included, other pumps are the same as the original RoSH Directive.

Regarding WEEE the European Council has now finally adopted the recast 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. It is believed that the scope will be extended to any electrical item after 2018.

Why not consider taking an advertisement in next year’s

• CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS REGULATION 305/2011

The UK and German pump industry have previously stated that pumps are excluded from the Construction Products Directive 89/106 /EEC. The Construction Products Directive has now been superseded by the Construction Products Regulation. Subsequently the BPMA and VDMA still believe that pumps are excluded from this regulation.

Directory & Buyers Guide

Here are three good reasons why you should advertise 1. Carefully targeted circulation 2. High quality readership 3. Highly competitive cost per thousand readers

In France however the French Pump industry has chosen to work to the Construction Products Regulation and will subsequently be required to supply a Carbon Footprint of a bare shaft pump and Pump Assembly by 2013

The perfect advertising medium to reach everyone involved with the British pump industry

BPMA celebrates high levels of training This year, BPMA has seen a big increase in the number of students either attending our pump training lecture-based courses held here at the National Metalforming centre or “in-house” and also registering for our e-learning pump technology courses. Of our e-learning essentials course one student stated:

For full details of all training courses available please visit www.bpma-elearning.co.uk and www.bpma.org.uk/training

“I found the course to be informative and helpful in both refreshing my memory on some subjects, and giving me new insight into areas I have not covered before. Overall I consider the Essentials of Pump Technology course be a very worthwhile tool providing a broad foundation on pump theory and best practice which I believe will be of benefit to all who undertake it”

Sustainability Live

Praise indeed for our relatively new foray into the world of “distance learning”. For more information visit www.bpma.org.uk/training

In April 2013, BPMA exhibited at the IWEX show which is part of Sustainability Live. The exhibition held at the NEC, Birmingham attracted a large number of visitors. Several of our members who were also exhibiting reported good attendances on their stands Sustainability Live is the ‘no 1’ event for sustainable business management, providing a comprehensive showcase of the latest products and services across the energy, water and energy from waste sectors.

Europump Guides and Guidelines

With three shows all under one roof, NEMEX energy Live, IWEX water Live and the new EfW Expo energy from waste Live work alongside each other to provide a focused world class environment in which to do business. With the latest solutions, the chance to network with like minded individuals and a comprehensive seminar programme highlighting the latest industry challenges and opportunities, this free to attend event was a must for anyone who works across these fast moving sectors.

Mandated Energy Audits for Pumping Systems BPMA responded to the auditing requirements of the Energy Efficiency Directive (2012/27/EU)

• Load profiling • System curves • Valve CV sizing

Plus many other important system related issues.

Furthermore BPMA was able to offer a “one off” subsidised opportunity to become CPSA qualified by attending a 5-day residential CPSA courses in June 2013

The Energy Efficiency Directive came into effect on the 4 December 2012 and is currently in its transition period. During this time the UK Government needs to put in place schemes to ensure those carrying out an audit are sufficiently competent. The mandated audits will be applicable within buildings and industrial processes - remember, Pumps consume 20% of global motive power and Pumping System improvements can deliver up to 40% reduction in energy costs.

Courses were held at the National Metalforming Centre, West Bromwich

The British Pump Manufacturers’ Association Ltd (BPMA), as referenced in UK Government Energy Strategy documents developed CPSA Scheme (Certified Pump System Auditor) an independent training package to fulfil the requirements of mandated energy audits for pumping systems. CPSA is a new industry specific professional qualification designed to equip individuals with the skills to conduct a Pumping System Audit.

BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 ECODESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR WATER PUMPS IN ACCORDANCE WITH IMPLEMENTING DIRECTIVE 2009/125/EC We set out the information available for the requirements for Water Pumps under the Energy Related Products Directive 2009/125/EC. The types of pumps that are within scope are categorised as follows; — — — — —

End suction own bearing (ESOB), End suction close coupled (ESCC), End suction close coupled inline (ESCCi), Vertical multistage (MS-V), Submersible multistage (MSS);

NORD AD

The size and range of pumps that are within the scope of the regulation are explained within three documents. The most important of these documents is Com Reg EU No 547 this is the is EU Regulation document and it was posted in the European Union Official Journal on 25th June 2012 and is used as legal text. The second most important document is the prEN WI 197077. This document will eventually become standard EN 16480 and is currently going through the CEN Process and may change slightly, however it currently offers information and methods on how to evaluate pumps to see if they meet the necessary criteria.

HALF PAGE VERTICAL

The third document is from Europump and is called the “Guideline for Water pumps”, again this document is not yet complete but offers useful information. (Documents available from BPMA) The first phase of this legislation came into effect on 1st January 2013 and pumps within scope will need to meet a Mean Efficiency Index of - 0.1 (10% Cut off). In effect what this means is that 10% of the pumps within the scope and data collection will no longer be able to be sold unless manufacturers improve their hydraulic efficiency to take them to or above an MEI of 0.1. The second phase of this legislation will come into effect on 1st January 2015 and pumps within scope need to meet a Mean Efficiency Index of - 0.4 ( 40% Cut off). In effect what this means is that 40% of the pumps within the scope and data collection will no longer be able to be sold unless manufacturers improve their hydraulic efficiency to take them to or above an MEI of 0.4.

Certified Pump System Auditor Scheme from BPMA CPSA (Certified Pump System Auditor) - a new industry specific professional qualification developed by the BPMA (British Pump Manufacturers Association Limited) which is already an established and highly regarded body within the industry. The objective of the scheme is to help improve the levels of professionalism in the sector by creating a universally recognised and respected industry ‘standard’ for individuals assessing the performance of a pumping system.

BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 Commission. Accordingly, revisions to the relevant Europump Guideline were necessary and BPMA members were provided with clarification. Similarly issues within the legal test of the ErP relevant to Circulators in regard to the supply of parts post January 2013 were identified. Again clarification was sought from the European Commission and BPMA Circulator members were kept advised of developments

A quick review of some of our other activities • Some 100 meetings (Technical, Marketing, Energy, Council, Training etc) have been held over the past twelve months within BPMA, Europump, BSI, CEN and ISO

• Some 20 + CEN, ISO & API standards are currently active and have been monitored by BPMA over the past twelve months

• Work continued within the Europump ErP Lot 28 and 29 working groups. Data collection to facilitate energy savings potential proved difficult but nevertheless a view was developing that Lot 29 “Swimming Pool Pumps and large clean water pumps” evidence suggested there would be limited value in “product” legislation pertinent to such pumps.

• Some 15 European Directives are currently active and have been monitored by BPMA over the past twelve months • BPMA “Standards and Directives Updates” have been published three times in the past twelve months

• Work continued on the “Systems Approach” with BPMA being successful (on Europump’s behalf) in ensuring the Pump System Assessments Standard (ISO 14414), competency of Auditors etc were encompassed in the ISO 5000 Energy Management Standard and Energy Efficiency Directive mandated Standard (EN 16247).

• Four editions of the BPMA News have been published to a circulation base of 16,000

• Some 41 separate presentations of the BPMA Training modules with some 263 delegates have been delivered in the past 12 months

• Some 36 students registered for Level 1 and 16 for Level 2 of the BPMA e-learning courses in the past 12 months

It was noted too that Audits were to become mandatory under the Energy Efficiency Directive

• Revised Group Insurance Product was promoted to members

• Very successful Europump Standards and Technical Commission meetings, hosted by BPMA were held in Glasgow in September 2012

• Some 50 project tender/pump enquiries were circulated in the last 12 months • Some 150 e-mail circulars were issued to members, including weekly BPMA News link, in the past 12 months

• Europump SME/Marketing Commission meetings were held in Belgium at Ensival Moret premises on 15/16 November 2012. It was pleasing to report, too, that Mr John Veness, of ITT Goulds had now been appointed EuropumpMarketing Commission Chairman following Mr Bill Newton’s (Flowserve) retirement from the position. ■

• BPMA Circulator manufacturers have met many times to resolve current discrepancies within UK SAP document (standard assessment procedure). Recent meetings with Bre should promote reduced annual kW usage figures for Circulators within the 2013 SAP document. • Circulator manufacturers have worked on the inclusion of circulators within the UK Green Deal scheme

• Work has already commenced on the wording in regard to pumps in the 2013 UK Building Regulations

• The second Motor Driven Systems Conference organised by BPMA and Touchwave Media on 8th November 2012 proved to be a great success • After meetings with Defra and Decc regarding energy savings within the pump installed base, the request was made of BPMA to identify independent training and standards and subsequently carry out pump system energy audits in different sectors to see if this approach would identify potential savings in operating pumping systems.

– Training identified: Department of Energy (DOE) Qualified Specialist Pump System Training (QSPSAT) – Standards identified: ASME EA -2 -2009 ( ISO 14414)

– Free Energy Audits were conducted at three sites.

And considerable potential savings were identified

• Meetings were held with Energy Efficiency Deployment Office (EEDO) and proved very positive

• The new EEDO energy strategy document was issued and the following is an extract from Page 56: “B.62 A number of trade associations, are also active in providing information on energy efficiency opportunities, including energy efficiency audits to identify opportunities on a site-specific basis. For example, the British Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA) provides energy audits through its Certified Pump System Auditor Scheme”

• Certain issues were identified within the legal text in regard to the ErP Directive and Water Pumps and indeed the “cut-off” methodology within the related prEN Standard. This was deeply regretted and was addressed with the European

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 in English on the Commission website. It will be translated into all EU languages and these translations should be made available by the end of 2010. 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. 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 (differences between a guard and a protective device) • Available on the Europump website

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 2013 “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 ecommerce (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.

PRESSURE EQUIPMENT DIRECTIVE 97/23/EC

(no significant change since last Directives update)

Europump Position paper have now been modified to insert the new Machinery Directive and Atex numbers and are available on the Europump website http://www.europump.org/

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

INTERNAL MARKET MACHINERY DIRECTIVE Old (98/37/EC) New 2006/42/EC

The last Commission Machinery Working Group meeting took place on 6 and 7 November 2012. Working documents are available from the secretariat. Apart from sector-specific issues, the Working Group discussed the status of the NOMAD (Noise Machinery Directive) project, which aims at assessing the compliance and quality of noise declarations in accordance with the Machinery and Outdoor Noise directive requirements (presentation available from the secretariat). Following the analysis of more than 1500 DoCs and technical documentation provided by 800 manufacturers for around 40 types of products, initial findings conclude that only 20% of the analysed documents are compliant. 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

BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE 2006 /95/ EC

continued

On the alignment of the LVD 2006/95/EEC with the New Legislative Framework, the European Parliament reports introduced positive amendments such as the use of in-house accredited bodies and the publication of the Declaration of Conformity (DoC) in electronic form and without a colour image. 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 interface with the General Product Safety Directive 2001/95/EC, reflecting guidance issued by EC DG Health & Consumer Protection. To reconfirm that any reference to the LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE should be to – 2006/95/EC no reference to the old numbers should made. New references of harmonised standards for low voltage were published in the Official Journal of the European Union in June 2008 (OJ C144 of 2008-06-10).

publication of a new edition of a harmonised standard relevant to their products. These are not legally binding guidelines, but merely assist manufacturers in adapting to the principles of the New Legislative Framework. Orgalime has prepared a guidance paper to be submitted to the next ATEX Working Group meeting at the Commission. The latest version of the ATEX guidelines (September 2012) is available from the secretariat– To reiterate on the 5th March 2012 Orgalime issued a position paper on the Commission proposals package for the alignment of nine Directives with the New Legislative Framework which contains specific comments relating to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. These comments relate to the inconsistency in the definitions of “component” and “equipment” with the general meaning of “products”; the absence of an obligation to carry out sample testing of marketed products; the difference in the order of markings; language requirement of the documents for notified bodies; and supporting evidence for adequacy of the technical design solution. The package is being discussed in the European Parliament and Council, and final adoption is foreseen at the beginning of 2013. The Europump Atex Guideline is currently being updated to reflect any changes . To reiterate the document has now been split into two parts .

EMC DIRECTIVE 89/336/EEC 2004/108/EC

• 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. Modifications are ongoing to this guideline in particular to certain wording in part 7 ( mechanical seals ) and new directive number references.

(no significant change since last Directives update)

The vote of the IMCO Committee of the European Parliament on the alignment of 9 Directives with the New Legislative Framework which contains specific comments relating to the EMCD 2004/108/EC took place on 10 July 2012. The vast majority of Ms Roithová’s amendments and all the compromised amendments were carried out. Orgalime has received the reports of the IMCO Committee in draft form, as these will only be published before the vote in the plenary in December. The reports are available from the secretariat As a reminder, on 5 March 2012 Orgalime issued a position paper on the Commission proposals package for the alignment of nine Directives with the New Legislative Framework which contains specific comments relating to the EMCD 2004/108/EC: the choice of the conformity assessment procedure that should remain with the manufacturer, and the need to clarify who is to issue the declaration of conformity. The package is being discussed in the European Parliament and Council and final adoption is expected at the beginning of 2013. The next EMC Working Party was announced for November 2012 (though there is no precise date yet). 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.

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. 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

Electro Magnetic Fields Directive (EMFD) Directive 2004/40/EC

replace Directive 2004/40/EC, which cannot be implemented, due to difficulties encountered by the medical community and several industry sectors. The directive stipulates an obligation for employers to carry out risk assessments and, if necessary, measure or calculate the levels of electromagnetic fields to which workers are exposed. Employers must ensure that the exposure of workers is compliant with a series of exposure limit values regarding thermal and non-thermal effects of electromagnetic fields both on health and senses, take corrective measures if such values are exceeded, and take measures aimed at avoiding or reducing risks to a minimum. Exposure limit values are indicated in the annexes to the directive The Cyprus Presidency is currently working towards finding an agreement on a general approach on a revised directive on EMF at the Employment and Social Affairs Council (EPSCO) on 4 October. Prior to this, two Social Questions Working Parties took place to discuss the issue, on 6 September and 18 September. The European Parliament has also restarted its work on this dossier. An exchange of views on the dossier in the European Parliament Employment Committee (EMPL) was foreseen for 18 September. This will be on the basis of the report which was tabled in November 2011. It will be working on compromise amendments, which are due to be considered in the committee on 8 October. The vote in the Employment Committee will take place on 9 October and the plenary vote is scheduled for 20 November. There is a risk that if the European Parliament moves ahead on this dossier without the Council having come to an agreement (which is possible at the EPSCO on 4 October), that the two institutions would be working in different directions. This should be avoided if the directive is to be amended in a satisfactory way. As a reminder, the Council had not reached an agreement on the Commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal for a Directive amending Directive 2004/40/EC. Therefore the deadline for the transposition of the Directive originally set for 30 April 2012 has been extended by 18 months, i.e. to 31 October 2013 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. 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 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. 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 employersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 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.

BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 concerning organic and metallic materials, possibly this summer.

continued

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 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

Construction Products Regulation (CPR) – Revision Orgalime continues to work on drafting its own Construction Products Regulation No 305/2011 (CPR) guide which should be ready at the beginning of 2013 (latest draft available from the secretariat). This guide will help the sector to be well prepared for the application of the CPR which starts on 1 July 2013. As a reminder, regarding the Council of European Producers of Materials for Construction (CEPMC) guide on the Construction Products Regulation No 305/2011 (CPR), a meeting took place on 9 May in the CEPMC premises in order to comment and finally validate the draft CEPMC. Although Orgalime participated in the elaboration of certain chapters, the general feeling in reading the guide led to an impression of confusion (some chapters are too long, others are not relevant to the manufacturers, some clear mistakes were included). Therefore, Orgalime decided to draw up its own guide of interpretation. On 31 July 2012, the European Commission has published a Communication on the “strategy for the sustainable competitiveness of the construction sector and its enterprises The British Construction Products’ Regulation Guide published by the British Association for Construction Products is available from S. Schofield .

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.

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.

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.

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 BPMA and Europump will monitor this position closely

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:

DRINKING WATER DIRECTIVE 99/83/EC

The 4MS – soon to be 5MS with Portugal - published a new document on their website in the summer: a compilation of the positive lists of substances used for organic materials acceptance for contact with drinking water. This spreadsheet is not yet a harmonised list, but clearly shows what is authorised in France, Germany and the Netherlands (the UK does not use such positive lists). An update of the positive list of metallic alloys is still awaited. On standardisation issues, DG Enterprise has sent guidance to CEN on regulatory aspects. CEN should be able to formally accept Mandate M/136 early next year and consult each concerned TC/WG for the drafting of harmonised standards. With regards to the CE marking of construction products in contact with drinking water, the standardization process is still ongoing. Regulatory guidance to the Technical Committees is still under progress and should be issued by the end of year, after consultation of national experts. In parallel, the 4MS have issued a new document on their website (hosted by the German Federal Environment Agency, UBA): “Assessment of Cementitious Products in Contact with Drinking Water”. This document reflects the common view between UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands on the assessment of such products. New documents are awaited

• 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. 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

BPMA Activity Highlights 2012/13 DG Enterprise and the GPSD revision by DG SANCO, both DGs being co-leaders on the package in order to achieve consistency. Orgalime has published a position paper on its expectations for this package, including the establishment of proportionate and coordinated enforcement measures against infringement of all EU product legislation, the clarification that market surveillance should not only consider risks to health and safety but also compliance on a wider basis with all applicable European legislation, the establishment of a common procedure for risk assessment and compliance for all national market surveillance authorities, the setting-up of a Horizontal Forum of national market surveillance authorities and an Advisory Board of relevant EU stakeholders (especially manufacturers and importers) to ensure a regular dialogue with the market surveillance Forum and facilitate the setting of priorities and the sharing of expertise, and the facilitation of national implementation of market surveillance by a further pooling and sharing of resources among Member States and funding projects at EU level. As a reminder, DG Enterprise and Industry (ENTR) and DG Public Health and Consumers (SANCO) have embarked on the preparation of a “Market Surveillance Package” with the aim to streamline all market surveillance-related requirements and procedures from the New Legislative Framework and the General Product Safety Directive 2000/139/EC. In theory, the GPSD covers market surveillance in the non-harmonised area for consumer products, while the NLF covers market surveillance in harmonised areas for consumer and industrial products. In practice, there is an obvious overlap in coverage (some products can fall under both directives) and consequently of procedures, which creates confusion for Member States authorities as well as economic actors. At this stage, the European Commission faces difficulties in defining the scope of and responsibilities for this package, and a legislative proposal is unlikely to be issued before the end of 2012.

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 Goal The CPD harmonization and MS voluntary cooperation whilst 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. New Legislative Framework (NLF) The Internal Market and Consumer Affairs Committee of the European Parliament (IMCO) has adopted the 9 reports on the alignment of Directives (including ATEX, EMCD, LVD, MID, SPVD) with the New Legislative Framework (NLF). The Council is currently scrutinising the 9 recast proposals and trialogues with the Parliament and the Commission are starting. The Council confirmed its intention to adopt the proposals all together as a package in the course of the first semester of 2013. A few issues remain open in the discussions at the level of the Council, such as the identification number of the product in the Declaration of Conformity (DoC), the concept of “reasonably foreseeable conditions of use”, and the web address on the product. As a reminder, on 5 March 2012 Orgalime issued a position paper on the Commission proposals package for the alignment of nine Directives with the New Legislative Framework. (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).

Dual-use items On 23 October 2012, the European Parliament sitting in Plenary approved the International Trade Committee’s report by Rapporteur Christofer Fjellner (EPP, Sweden) on the Commission proposal amending Regulation (EC) No 428/2009. As a reminder, the Commission proposal focuses on procedural adaptation of the Regulation which sets up a Community regime for the control of export, transfer, brokering and transit of dual-use items. It notably introduces delegated acts in order to allow the Commission to rapidly remove destinations and/or items from the scope of existing EU General Export Authorisations. Following the 2011 Green Paper on the EU dual-use export control system, the European Commission is still preparing policy options proposals to rethink the patterns of the export controls system, address the various implementation issues, and establish a system that could ensure equal requirements of exporters at EU level. As a reminder, this Regulation set up a Community regime for the control of exports, transfer, brokering and transit of dualuse items. The 2011 proposal updates the EU control list (Annex I), makes modifications to the EU General Export Authorisations (Annex II) and introduces delegated acts in order to allow the Commission to rapidly remove destinations and/or items from the scope of existing EU General Export Authorisations.

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. Market Surveillance The Regulation on market surveillance is being drafted by

ENVIRONMENT WEEE AND ROHS DIRECTIVES 2012/19/EU & 2011/65/EU

CHEMICALS (REACH) Amendment of directives 67/548/EEC &199/45/EC

On RoHS, The new RoHS directive came into force as of 2nd January 2012. Monitoring and control equipment will be effective as of 22/7/14. Industrial monitoring and control equipment as of 22/7/17 . New Standard now available for the assessment of electrical equipment EN 50581. The European Commission and Member States’ representatives are still drafting a FAQs document on RoHS2. Orgalime issued a position paper on “suggestions to improve the wording of the draft RoHS2 FAQs in relation to the application of the New Legislative Framework” (NLF). In particular, the position urges the Commission to align as much as possible the interpretation of NLF provisions in the FAQ on RoHS with the Blue Guide. Orgalime also issued a position paper on “Industry’s Common Understanding of the scope provisions of Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS2)”. The stakeholder online consultation will start end of June and run for 8 weeks 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. Monitoring and Control instrumentation will become part of the scope 22/07/2014. Industrial monitoring equipment will be part of the scope 22/07/2017 . No new substances are banned in the revised Directive. On WEEE, The Recast WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU has finally been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (L 197/38 – 24.07.2012) on 24 July 2012 and entered into force on 13 August. Member States will have to transpose the Recast WEEE Directive into national law by 14 February 2014 at the latest. In the UK BEAMA have been approached by the Environmental Agency with regards to Shower pumps . The EA believe shower pumps should be part of the scope of WEEE. To date no contact has been made with the BPMA who will dismiss this claim if approached on the basis of the existing Europump Position paper. Members should contact the BPMA if any issues should arise 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).

On 3 October 2012 the Commission published a Communication on the Second Regulatory Review on Nanomaterials. The accompanying Staff Working Paper gives a detailed overview of available information on manufactured nanomaterials on the market, including their benefits and risks. The second regulatory review assesses the adequacy and implementation of EU legislation for nanomaterials. The main conclusions and findings of the Communication include: The annual quantity of nanomaterials on the global market is estimated at around 11 million tonnes (market value of roughly €20bn): 85 % Carbon black and 12% amorphous silica. REACH & CLP (Classification, Labelling and Packaging of substances and mixtures) regulations both apply on all substances, including nanomaterials. REACH is the best possible framework for the risk management of nanomaterials but more specific requirements within the framework have proven necessary. It is essential to access transparent information on nanomaterials and products containing them, but there is no immediate need to require information about all products in which nanomaterials are used. A main challenge is to establish validated methods and instrumentation for detection, characterisation and analysis, completing information on the hazards of nanomaterials and

developing methods to assess exposure to them. The next regulatory review will take place in 2015 at the latest. On the Candidate list, on 3 September, ECHA launched a public consultation on 54 potential Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC). The deadline for interested parties to submit comments is 18 October. ECHA has published an updated FAQ about REACH (see new Q&A in the chapter on information in the supply chain), a FAQ on the Implementation of Annex XVII to REACH on restrictions and a Guideline on the interpretation of the concept “which can be placed in the mouth” as laid down in the entry 52 of Annex XVII. Four Commission Regulations amending Annex XVII REACH (restriction on the manufacture, placing on the market and use of certain dangerous substances, preparations and articles) have recently been published in the Official Journal of the EU (L.252/1 (cadmium), L252/4 (lead) - 19.09.2012 & L.253/1 (mercury), L253/5 (phenylmercury) - 20.09.2012). The Downstream Users of Chemicals Co-ordination group (DUCC) has published a report on experience gained with the development of Downstream User Chemical Safety (DU CSA) and DU Chemical Safety Report (DU CSR). On 20 June, ECHA launched a public consultation on its draft recommendation of ten new priority substances to be included in the Authorisation List. The deadline for interested parties to submit comments is 19 September 2012. On authorisation and the potential inclusion of Chromium Trioxide in Annex XIV REACH (list of substances subject to authorisation), the Commission replied (DG ENTR) to Orgalime’s letter regarding the ECHA recommendation to include Chromium Trioxide in Annex XIV REACH. DG ENTR’s reply is limited to a strict clarification of the objectives and process of authorization under REACH. It confirmed that an authorization may be granted if no suitable alternatives exist. According to Article 64(4) of REACH, an assessment of the socio-economic costs and benefits of granting an authorization is to be done by a Socio-economic analysis (“SEAC”) at the stage of evaluating individual authorisation applications. Such an assessment is not foreseen by REACH at the stage of prioritizing substances for inclusion in Annex XIV.

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 November 2014 . If you miss this date you will not be able to use this substance after May 2016 Further Guidances: http://ecb.jrc.it/reach/rip/ http://reach.jrc.it/navigator_en.htm http://www.hse.gov.uk/reach/resources.htm

EU INTEGRATED POLLUTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL DIRECTIVE 96/61/EC

Horizontal BREF on efficient energy techniques (IPPC) In the context of the implementation of the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED), the European Commission/European IPPC Bureau has proposed a work programme for the drawing-up and reviewing of Best Available Techniques Reference documents for 2013. Orgalime has sent a letter to the European Commission asking it to continue a thorough and inclusive preparatory process for BREFs and refrain from drastic simplification, to refrain from focusing on BAT conclusions only with the risk of overlooking other essential technical and economic information and the confidentiality of certain business information, and to carefully assess the added value, scope and objectives of a possible resource efficiency BREF announced by the Commission. The European Commission is currently assessing the possibility of extending the scope of the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) to small combustion installations below 50MW. According to the Commission’s proposal, the expected benefits of the revision will affect health and environment, with the inclusion of large combustion plants, reduction of administrative burden, unified application of BAT, and no impact on competitiveness, Completion of first reading in the European Parliament and Council is expected for January 2009, while the end of the co-decision process and publication of the directive is scheduled for December 2010. The transposition of the directive to the Members States should be completed by July 2012 Europump proposal for Pumps and Pumps Systems which is expected to be incorporated.

On registration, the first deadline expired on 30 November 2010 for substances produced or imported in large volumes as well as certain volumes of carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic (CMR) substances and chemicals that are toxic to the aquatic environment. Around 4900 substances were estimated to be registered by the end of November but only 3400 phase-in substances have been registered. 24,675 registration dossiers have been submitted for 4300 substances (including 3400 phase-in substances). Approximately 86% of registrations were made by large companies and 14% by SMEs. Representatives (companies representing non-EU manufacturers) made 19% of registrations. Most of the registrations were made by companies based in Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, France and Belgium. Precise figures are available on the ECHA website. 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

ENERGY EUROPEAN COMMISSION PROPOSALS FOR AN ECODESIGN FOR ENERGY-USING PRODUCTS (EUP) FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE – Directive 2005/32/EC Energy related Products (ErP) Directive 2009/125/EC

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. A guideline has now been developed by Europump for

As a reminder, the main aspects of the agreed text include an extension to energyrelated 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 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.

Circulators and Water pumps and is available from S Schofield upon request . Circulators The first phase came into effect as of January 1st 2013. 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 of implementation of the regulation. Water Pumps Whilst the first phase was introduced January 1st 2013 unfortunately technical issues with the EN standard have meant that a transition paper has been required from the Commission . It is hoped that this will be replace by the standard during the summer of 2013

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

The Directive entered into force December 4th 2012 and member states need to transpose into national law by 5th June 2014 . The European Commission has started the preparation of implementation guidelines, with the objective to ensure a timely and correct implementation of the EED. These guidelines, currently developed in close cooperation with Member States through the EED Committee, are expected to be finalised and published in the first half of 2013 Under article 8 of the Directive enterprises that are non SME are “subject to an energy audit carried out in an independent and cost-effective manner by qualified and/or accredited experts or implemented and supervised by independent authorities under national legislation by –three years after entry into force of this Directive- and at least every four years from the date of the previous energy audit The directive establishes a common framework of measures for the promotion of energy efficiency within the EU in order to achieve the 20% energy efficiency target by 2020 and contains provisions for further improvements beyond that date. Each Member State will have to set an indicative national energy efficiency target, based on, primary or final energy consumption, primary or final energy savings or energy intensity. By 30 June 2014, the Commission will assess the progress achieved and decide whether the Union is likely to achieve energy consumption of no more than 1474 Mtoe of primary energy and/or no more than 1078 Mtoe of final energy consumption in 2020. In relation to public buildings, Member States will have to ensure that as from 1 January 2014, 3 % of the total floor area of heated and/or cooled buildings owned by their central government is renovated each year. The European Parliament, the Council and the Commission agreed to submit themselves to a comparable voluntary undertaking (subject to budgetary and procurement rules). In addition, Member States are required to establish a longterm strategy for mobilising investment in the renovation of the national stock of residential and commercial buildings. Member State will set up an energy efficiency obligation scheme ensuring that, energy distributors and/or retail energy sales companies, achieve a cumulative end-use energy savings target of 1.5 % of the annual energy sales to final consumers (by the end of 2020), with some flexibility on how to achieve this target as long as these do not lead to a reduction of more than 25 % of the amount of the energy savings target. The directive also contains provisions on energy audits and energy management systems, energy metering, billing information, and promotion of efficiency in heating and cooling, energy transformation, transmission and distribution and energy services. The directive should result in a 17% improvement in energy efficiency by 2020 compared to the 20% target, and will be completed by other measures. Both the Council and the European Parliament still have to formally endorse the agreement. Publication in the OJEU is expected for October 2012.

Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) The European Commission published a report on its public consultation launched in February 2012 on “Financial Support for Energy Efficiency in Buildings”. The consultation was based on three topics: addressing market failures, improving access to finance and strengthening the regulatory framework. Answers were extremely varied, but very often insisted on the need to develop long-term schemes and to improve information (using the concept of “one-stop-shop”). The European Commission intends to present shortly a set of proposals taking into account the outcome of the consultation

Environmental footprint initiative The final publication of methodologies for calculating the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) and the Organisation Environmental Footprint (OEF) in the context of the Sustainable Consumption and Production Action Plan is still awaited either in December 2012 or in early 2013. Following publication of the final draft methodologies, the Commission is carrying out an impact assessment and an internal service consultation on both methodologies. Water Blueprint On 14 October, the European Commission adopted the blueprint to Safeguard Europe’s Water Resources (COM(2012)673). In the building sector, the Commission suggests setting up binding Ecodesign measures for water-related products, developing voluntary ecolabel and green public procurement criteria, better enforcement of the Water Framework Directive and especially a search for water pricing/cost-recovery, raising consumer/user awareness regarding water uses through footprinting, voluntary labelling and certification schemes, and encouraging water re-use from wastewater plants and industrial installations for irrigation and industrial processes, including a regulation establishing common standards. For water-related products, the Commission announces the development of a voluntary EU Ecolabel and Green Public Procurement criteria for key water-related products and the inclusion of water-related products in the Eco-design Working Plan.

UK Pump Market Prospects 2013-2017 UK Pump Imports 2003, 2011, 2012 – Top countries * $ million, current prices

By Vivian Woodward of European Industrial Forecasting Ltd 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.

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 has already begun to unwind. The rapid build-up of chemical plant capacity in the Middle East and Asia has adversely affected investment in the UK chemical industry. Exports probably account for around 60% of sales, although measurement problems prevent a clear comparison of exports with the level of total sales. The pattern of exports by destination 2003-2012 (see table) shows some marked changes. Exports grew by 7.8% per year 2003-11, compared with 9% per year for imports. Exports grew by 8.8% in 2012, whereas import fell by 11.5%.

Imports from China grew by 31.1% per year 2003-2011 but only by 5.7% in 2012. China aside, the main sources of imports are Germany, USA, Italy, France and Japan. Imports from all of these countries fell in 2012.

Future Prospects

Although the US economy has recently shown signs of improvement, and there are good prospects for continued growth in China, recession in the Euro area remains a major source of instability. The attempt, by austerity alone, to improve the competitiveness of France Spain and Italy, relative to Germany, may be doomed to failure, in which case the Euro currency will collapse.

Reducing energy costs with the latest pumping technology Matching output to demand

Pump speed control offers by far the greatest savings potential. What is perfectly normal in other fields of application, i.e. matching power input to actual demand, is still far from standard practice in many branches of industry. In practice, a detailed analysis of a pump’s operating behaviour often reveals that it is not running at its optimum, energy-efficient operating point. A common cause for this is operation at off-design conditions due to either system over sizing or normal temporary variations in flow rate arising from system processes. If pump output is not adjusted to demand via some form of system control, valuable energy is wasted. In the case of closed-circuit systems, energy savings of up to 60 percent can be achieved depending on load profile. Altering the speed means that the pump’s power input can be matched to the precise requirements of the system. The industry offers a variety of technical options which allow energy consumption to be influenced via speed control. There is no need to add tolerances and safety margins when sizing the pump.

Reducing energy costs with the latest pumping technology By Daniel Gontermann of KSB Against a background of rising energy prices and urgent requirements to reduce CO2 emissions, it is becoming increasingly important to consider pump systems’ energy consumption. In addition, a Europe-wide study has concluded that improved product configuration could facilitate a ten percent saving on energy consumption. Using pumps and motors with high efficiencies could save around another three percent.

In order to maximise energy efficiency, the entire hydromechartronic system needs to be considered

No universal solution

However, there is no universal solution for exploiting economic potential in any and every application. Basically, four different technical approaches are available that can help lower a pump system’s energy requirements. Pump manufacturers can contribute to a reduction in electricity consumption by providing pump selection software, matching impeller diameter to actual operating conditions, offering variable speed pumps sets and using extremely energy-efficient motors. Hydraulic optimisation of a planned system begins with correct pump selection in order to avoid the common mistake of oversizing. In this context, pump selection software plays a crucial role. It allows the user to gain access to expert know-how: pump systems can be designed and selected according to commercial or technical parameters. Specialised IT tools developed on the basis of practical experience also allow details to be taken into consideration. The consultant can, for example, calculate a piping system using a special module. This takes into account not only energy costs, but also criteria such as price and efficiency.

Pump speed control by far offers the greatest saving potential.

Pump manufacturers offer specific solutions

Standard frequency inverters are devices which can be employed in all kinds of applications and offer a variety of different settings. They are typically used in systems which employ three-phase motors as drives. Matching such devices to the characteristics of a pump requires in-depth know-how regarding the hydraulic behaviour of centrifugal pumps. Energy-saving operation is, for example, dependent on the ability to set the frequency inverter’s V/f curve to a quadratic characteristic. After all, operating a conveyor belt loaded with gravel, which requires a high torque directly after the system has been switched on, is different from running a centrifugal pump which has a very low starting torque.

Matching the impeller diameter to the operating point

This is why pump manufacturers offer specific solutions with fully mounted and operational speed control units featuring parameters and configuration menu options that are matched to pump applications. Commissioning then only involves entering a few parameters specifically related to the application, such as the controller’s response speed. Additional hydraulic functions such as “dynamic pipe friction loss compensation” or “sensorless dry running protection” and warnings signalling that the pump is operating under low flow conditions protect pumps and systems.

When compared with a pump whose impeller for commercial or manufacturing reasons has a fixed standard diameter, a pump whose impeller diameter has been matched to its operating point can achieve energy savings of several thousand pounds, as its performance is tailored to the needs of the system.

Accelerating Product Development Timescales in the Pump Industry Figure 2 Median Timescales for Total Development Time of New Auto Platform

Accelerating Product Development Timescales in the Pump Industry By Bill Newton of Flowserve Corporation Development timescales for a new pump range typically can be between 3 and 5 years. These timescales have not changed significantly over the last 15 to 20 years. Compared with other mechanical engineering products such as cars or aircraft, pumps are much less complex (see Table 1) yet new models of cars and aircraft are often introduced at a faster rate. Figure 1 Product Development Timescales

Are there any lessons that we can learn from other industries and their approach to product development?

Some pump specialists would perhaps argue that, as critical components, there is an inherent conservatism among end users to major changes in the pump technology they use. Operators of, for example, a chemical plant cannot afford the commercial, legal and environmental consequences of moving to a new pump product that has not undergone rigorous testing and field evaluation. However, surely the same argument applies to car or aircraft manufacturers as the Ford Pinto scandal of the 1970s or the de Havilland Comet disasters of the early 1950s testify, yet this has not stopped their respective industries cutting significantly development times.

New product development in the pump industry traditionally has been a sequential process (also known as “waterfall development”). This involves working up a full specification of “Requirements” based upon internal discussions, review of competitor products, contact with the market place etc. Only when this stage is complete or near complete, does the next stage (Design) comence. This is followed by Implementation, Verification and Testing stages

Demand from oil and gas in the North Sea, although in longrun decline, has been boosted recently by some major new projects coupled with expansion of investment in refurbishment. A recent assessment of shale gas prospects indicates large potential, but this is not expected to lead to an early increase in gas supply - mineral rights are owned by the state rather than individuals (unlike in the US), which is a major disincentive.

An alternative approach is the concept of iterative development. Known also by the term concurrent “engineering”, this is something of a misnomer since it applies not just to the engineering of the product but to all of the disciplines involved including sourcing, manufacturing, marketing and sales. The idea is that disciplines operate in parallel, each moving through a continous process of planning, analysis, testing, evaluation and implementation, operating on an iterative basis until the desired outcome is achieved. (Figure 3).

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, construction has still not started on new nuclear power plants, a delay of over 10 years owing to government vacillation over energy policy. The UK is committed to the closure of coal fired power stations over the next few years and power blackouts are a real possibility. Demand from new gas and nuclear plants is expected to grow strongly towards the end of the forecast period. ■

Figure 3 Waterfall vs. Iterative New Product Development

Reducing energy costs with the latest pumping technology continued from page 33

The advantage of this is that it enables modifications to be incorporated as the process continues whilst minimising delays. These modifications might arise for example if testing has highlighted performance issues that need to be addressed. Using a sequential product development process would involve significant additional delays since these changes could involve elements of redesign.

Intelligent differential pressure transmitters may record the load profile of the pump in order to indicate any potential for optimising energy efficiency.

New technology for old systems

The motor-mounted system, which allows frequency inverters to be added to any electric motor, can be retrospectively fitted to existing systems – a solution not possible using readymade integral motors. And this can be done regardless of manufacturer or efficiency class. In addition, the system’s interface will often allow it to be integrated into a process control system. Figure 4 Durco Mark 3 ISO Chemical Process Pump

EU pushes energy-efficient motors

Energy-efficient motors have become very popular in recent years and are heavily promoted by the European Union. The rather one-sided legislative approach regarding these motors resembles that concerning the energy-saving light bulb. Using larger amounts of copper and iron results in decreased electric and magnetic resistance and, in turn, higher efficiency. However, the larger proportion of high-grade raw materials required for these motors results in markedly higher production costs when compared with conventional drive types. By using IE2 motors, energy consumption can be improved by an average of 3.5 percent in terms of overall efficiency. Nevertheless, making use of energy-efficient motors only really makes sense if the other options to exploit savings potential have been implemented. No energy-efficient motor can achieve reasonable levels of energy consumption with a pump that is operating far off its best efficiency point. In order to generate the greatest efficiency gains, it is therefore necessary to utilise all savings potential. ■

Using this alternative approach depends for success on a range of measures including: • Setting up a multi-disciplinary team drawn from engineering, manufacturing, sourcing, marketing and product management, ideally, dedicated to the project • “Hands-on” project management with extensive use of project management software • Tight control of costs • Regular reviews of project progress (including design reviews) • Top management commitment.

Many of the elements of concurrent engineering were applied to the development of a new ISO chemical process pump launched in June 2-12 at ACHEMA, the major process industry exhibition. As a result, “time to market” was cut by around 30% compared to the launch of the previous chemical process pump which had less than half the number of sizes. ■

Composites are a blend of two or more components: typically a fiber (filler) and a polymer (matrix). Joining fibers with a polymer produces unique properties that neither could achieve by itself.

Better than Bronze: Using Non-Metallic Wear Parts in Vertical Water Intake Pumps

Due to the many forms of fiber available, filler selection is critical when engineering a composite for a specific application. In this instance, a chopped-carbon-fiberreinforced, PEEK-based thermoplastic composite was chosen. This material is thermally stable and used up to 121°C (250°F) with a CTE of ~2,5 x steel. It is recommended for stationary components such as bushings, line shaft bearings, and bowl wear rings in sump or river-water pumps containing sand and other abrasives.

By Martin Swierczek of Greene, Tweed & Co. GmbH When pumping river or well water, abrasive particles such as sand and other debris can erode hardware quickly, leading to poor performance and costly, frequent repairs. Historically, sacrificial bronze components have been used as wear materials in these applications. But the poor tribological nature of bronze requires generous running clearances between dynamic components, hampering reliability from lack of rotor support. In addition, the lack of resistance to particulates in the media stream significantly shortens product life.

Examples of Wear: Thermoplastic Composite Bearing on a 304 SS Shaft

Design Considerations and Calculations

Bearings were designed with interference of 0.0015 mm/housing mm diameter with a minimum of 0.102 mm interference fit and then mechanically secured. For retrofit applications such as this, the radial (or wall) thickness of the thermoplastic composite is generally dictated by the existing hardware. For new equipment, standard practice is to design with a minimum radial wall thickness of 3 mm. Use of a metal casing may be considered with a radial wall thicker than 6.35 mm.

Examples of Wear: Leaded Tin Bronze Bearing on a 304 SS Shaft

A refinery based in northeast Germany struggled with this problem in the water pumps of their collector wells. Designed and built in the early 1970s, the pumps had to be taken out of service every two years due to bearing failures. In an effort to overcome this, the refinery partnered with a supplier of thermoplastic wear components and selected a polyetheretherketone(PEEK)-based wear part solution. By doing so, the refinery was able to increase mean time between failure (MTBF) from two to over five years, saving over €100.0001 in repairs. How this was achieved, and the design process involved, is presented here.

ErP Directive - Up and Running and Beginning to take effect glandless circulating pumps that were on the market in 2009. The reality is that the new efficiency requirements will be practically impossible to achieve without using high-efficiency pumps with EC motor technology.

ErP Directive - Up and Running and Beginning to take effect

Electronically controlled glandless circulation pumps with maintenance-free frequency converters automatically adjust their power to the changing operating status of the heating system. Especially in the partial load range, which makes up as much as 94% of the operating time of a heating pump, a considerable reduction in power consumption can be achieved compared to an uncontrolled pump. Their electronically commutated motors (ECMs) make it possible to double the efficiency compared to electronically controlled pumps with conventional drives.

By Richard Harden of Wilo UK 2013 has seen the start of a pumping revolution. And its every bit as important as that statement sounds. The European Union has recognised that in order to achieve anywhere near its requirements for carbon emission reductions, and to see significant reductions in the energy needed to power heating and hot water systems across the twenty seven member states, it has to lay down the law. The UK Government has set out very ambitious targets for energy and carbon reduction and it is looking for significant help from the heating and hot water and air conditioning sectors to achieve these. Having addressed the issues relating to the energy efficiency of boilers, and begun the process of encouraging the introduction of renewables on a wider scale, it has had to turn its attention to other components of the heating system to find other sources of savings that will make a healthy contribution to the totals required to make a dent in the targets with which it’s faced.

Clearly one of the key components of a heating or cooling system that currently uses too much energy - although quite small in size and overlooked by many as a key user of electricity – is the circulating pump.

The total electricity consumption of all glandless circulating pumps operated in the European Union for heating and air conditioning – the normal small circulating pumps - has to be halved by 2020. This is the objective of an EU ordinance under the European ErP (Eco-Design) Directive which regulates the energy efficiency of this type of pump, from 1 January 2013 onwards, with a further tightening of requirements planned for 1 August 2015. Overall, these changes are thought to be likely to provide an energy saving of 23 terawatt hours for the EU as a whole. This corresponds to the electricity generated by about six medium-sized coalfired power stations, or a reduction in EU-wide carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of about 11 million tonnes per year.

Installing the Connector - simple!

The important new yardstick for determining which pump models can continue to be used in future is referred to as the energy efficiency index (EEI). This is calculated using a process defined in the ordinance - (EC) 641/2009. The average electrical power of a pump is calculated on the basis of a load profile in relation to a reference pump, that is, an average pump with the same hydraulic output.

Showing the customer how it works

From January 2013, the limit EEI value of glandless circulating pumps installed outside the heat generator external pumps – not those incorporated in combi or system boilers at this stage – has been defined as 0.27. The energy efficiency classes previously specified are now superfluous, because as a rule, pumps are better than the minimum requirements of the previously A rated pumps. From August 2015, the EEI limit value will be reduced to 0.23. This will also apply to glandless circulation pumps, designed to

In order to achieve this goal set by the European Commission, the EU ordinance prohibits the sale of technically outmoded, inefficient pump models from 2013 onwards. This will mean a ban on sales of about 90% of the

In general, rounded axial grooves along the bearing’s inner surface are recommended to help flush media when abrasives are present. Spiral and circumferential grooves are an alternative to slow the flow of media through the bearing and assist with lubrication.

operate in newly installed heat generators or solar thermal systems (integrated pumps). In the last implementation stage, the regulations starting from 2020 will also apply to the replacement of integrated pumps in existing heat generators. The regulations apply to all glandless circulating pumps in heating and air conditioning applications with the exception of drinking water circulation pumps.

Softer metals can show a high rate of wear when operating in low lubrication environments against this composite material. In order to maximize the life of the composite and mating components, a surface hardness minimum of 40 Rockwell C is recommended. For applications containing suspended solids, a higher hardness will help maximize shaft life by reducing damage caused by hard particles scratching the surface. In these cases, dynamic surfaces should be treated to be harder than the abrasives being pumped.

Looking at the current pump population, there are still many heating and air conditioning systems which are equipped with pumps that have no speed control. Because of this, an unnecessarily high amount of electricity is consumed – up to ten times more than the newest pump generation requires. Models with extremely low electricity consumption are already available. These not only benefit the environment but also clearly, offer significant benefits to the building owner and the consumer because of lower electricity bills, whilst making no concessions in terms of comfort and performance.

While the applications in which thermoplastic composite products are applied are generally lubricated, there are circumstances during which sufficient lubrication is not present. With that in mind, this subject must be considered. Most importantly, the clearance must be large enough to allow a fluid film to develop. Without the fluid film, efficiency and reliability improvements are eliminated and wear rate increases dramatically. Fluid flow also serves to remove the heat generated at the dynamic surfaces. Therefore, higher load applications may require more clearance for lubrication and heat dissipation.

Life cycle costings have become more important considerations than ever before. With advanced technology comes more expensive purchase prices but, when the new pump is saving 90% of the electricity costs year on year, its clear to see that the new more expensive pump can actually pay for itself within two to three years and with a life span of some fifteen years, that’s a significant on-going saving for the following twelve to thirteen years simply by replacing an elderly uncontrolled pump by one that responds very specifically to the demands put on it by the heating system it is helping to ‘drive’.

By using thermoplastic composite bearings, the housing-toshaft clearance is significantly reduced compared to bronze bearings. The reduced clearance creates a higher fluid film pressure, leading to a more stable shaft with lower vibration; thus, a more reliable pump is achieved. Additionally, thermoplastic composite materials are less prone to corrosion than bronze, extending product life.

It still comes as surprise to many that the energy consumed by small circulating pumps on heating systems across the UK can ‘guzzle’ quite so much electricity. The reality is that the old, uncontrolled pumps that are still operating on millions of domestic and small commercial heating systems in this country are responsible for much higher energy bills, far higher CO2 emissions and far higher energy usage than is necessary today. But because in many cases they are “out of sight, out of mind”, the very simple act of replacing them with a new high efficiency pump that can reduce the costs of the energy the pump is using by up to 90% - tends to get overlooked.

To determine ambient clearance (machine dimensions) for the composite, the value should be adjusted for the application temperature. That adjustment is made based on the following: Ambient Clearance = C+(A•B•D) – (G•H•D) + (E•F•D) A = ambient shaft diameter B = CTE for shaft C = clearance from chart D = change in temperature

E = radial thickness (or OD – ID) F = CTE for WR material G = housing/carrier ID H = CTE for housing/carrier

There are currently about 140 million small circulators in Europe running constantly, whether they are needed or not – unless they are turned off. This is resulting in a major waste of energy and huge and unnecessary greenhouse gas emissions, generated for no good reason. It simply makes sense that all small circulators should respond to the needs of the heating or cooling system they are part of, using the minimum necessary energy to run them - and none at all when they aren’t required to operate.

When properly designed, thermoplastic composites can be installed directly into pump housings or into metallic carriers if the need arises.

Results

At the refinery in northeast Germany, the first pump was upgraded to thermoplastic composite components over five years ago, and to date eight pumps have been retrofitted. None of the eight pumps have gone out of service with bearing issues since being retrofitted with the thermoplastic composite bearings. The MTBF has been increased from two years to over five years, leading to cost savings of approximately €100.000 over the last six years.

The EU Commission estimates that inefficient circulators are responsible for about a 20% share of household energy bills and removing them and replacing them with intelligent circulators could save as much as €2.2 billion by 2020 across the 27 European member states – equivalent to the total annual electricity consumption of Ireland! The age of the energy efficient pump is very much here and here to stay! ■

In the past, virgin polymer materials have been used in pumps with limited results. However, success has been achieved with the development of thermoplastic composites which combine the non-seizing, non-galling properties of thermoplastic materials with the mechanical and wear properties of composites. Due to their strong performance, they have now been recognized by API Standard 610 as suitable wear materials. ■

Pumps motor on ...... This means there are major opportunities for energy savings by utilising a more efficient pump technology.

Pumps motor on …….

In fact if electronic speed control and energy efficient motors were introduced, Europe’s CO2 emissions would be reduced by 69 million tonnes.

By: Linda Dingley of Grundfos Pumps Ltd. Did you know that pumps currently consume 10% of global electricity and most are needlessly inefficient?

The history of pumps can be traced back to irrigation pumps c3000 BC. These early pumps were made from a series of water wheels and chutes and the energy to drive them was provided by animals, in fact systems like these can still be seen in use in remote areas today.

Significant change was only made possible after 1831 when Michael Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction – the principle behind the electric transformer and generator – this would prove to be one of the most significant discoveries of the era.

Full speed ahead

It was in the 1950s that pump design started to find alternative solutions that would move pumps from the piston pump concept that were big, heavy and consumed large amounts of parts and components. And during the second half of the 20th Century pump design continued to become more compact and sophisticated. This opened up whole new markets and possibilities and volume pump manufacture started to take place for the first time.

A modern plantroom with energy efficient pumps

So the benefits of getting it right are obvious and various tools have been developed to demonstrate this such as Life Cycle Costs analysis (LCC). The chart below looks at the pump during the ‘use’ phase and shows that whether the pump is been run 8, 16 or 24 hours a day, getting the efficiency right is of paramount importance to the resultant outlay on energy:

However, at this stage scant regard was paid to the efficiency and size of the motors, which is where the overall energy efficiency of the pump is derived. For example back in the late 50s it would not have been unusual for a domestic circulator to consume 60 watt as opposed to todays’ equivalent pump that operates at just 5 watt.

Operating hours per year Purchase Price Maintenance/repair Energy costs

Things slowly started to change with the growing awareness of climate change and increasing energy prices and in 1991 the first circulator pumps appeared that incorporated an integrated frequency converter. These pumps combined the advantages of speed control and energy saving in one unit. They were the first wave of the new generation of speed controlled pumps that started the intelligent pump genre still seen today as they are capable of adapting themselves to match the needs of the system.

4000h 1.9% 1.0% 97.1%

6000h 1.3% 1.0% 97.7%

Against this background the recent introduction of the EuP Directive in January 2013, which defines the eco-design requirements of energy-using products, makes perfect sense. Alongside this change there are also new international standards for low voltage three-phase, cage-induction motors with a power range from 0.75kW to 375kW. This International Efficiency or IE standard uses an open numbering system and standards are currently defined as IE1 = standard efficiency, IE2 = high efficiency, IE3 and above = premium efficiency. This now supercedes the previous European EFF voluntary agreement for motors.

Magnetically drawn

The dawn of the new millennium saw the first circulator pump that combined a permanent magnet motor appear on the market. This technology works by automatically controlling its own speed, the pump continuously regulates the pressure (head), so that it is optimally adapted to the speed of the water (flow). These pumps – initially aimed at the light commercial/commercial markets - offered significant saving opportunities of up to 80% energy compared to other similar sized pumps. This innovation quickly evolved into domestic circulators, which was an important breakthrough as this meant that automatic control, easy installation and many new features became a reality. These new pumps were recognised and heralded around the world by winning multiple local and international awards.

A pump audit can assess pump efficiency

Full speed ahead?

Despite these introductions much of the energy consumed by pump motors today still goes to waste. This is because most pumps currently installed are larger than necessary and they run continuously at their top speed regardless of the actual system requirements. However, the reality is that most pump motors only have to run at their full speed 5% of the time. This is true for all kinds of pumps: in commercial buildings, industrial applications, public buildings and water utilities.

Motoring on

Dry-running vacuum pumps handling corrosive media the cooling phase. Once the process is complete, the suction-line valve should be closed whilst the pump continues to run for a given time. However, with the suction-line valve closed there is insufficient inert gas flow needed to remove all remaining corrosive substances. For this reason, it is important to flush the machine with an inert media such as nitrogen. Only when the nitrogen inertisation is complete, should the pump be switched off. In many process plants, several vacuum pumps are connected in parallel and linked together by means of a common exhaust manifold. A cold vacuum pump that is open to the exhaust, acts as a condenser. In order to avoid warm vapour saturated corrosive gas from getting into a cold static machine, suitable isolation measures are advisable. This is possible by incorporating an isolation valve on the discharge side of the each vacuum pump.

Dry-running vacuum pumps handling corrosive media By Shaun Hampson of Sterling-SIHI The cost of contaminated waste disposal from non-dry vacuum technology during a manufacturing process has increased and is a significant cost to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Dry-running designs of vacuum pump are increasingly becoming the dominant choice of vacuum generating machine within the pharmaceutical industry. The decision to adopt such technology generally being on the basis of reduced effluent/abatement costs. No service liquid or internal lubricant within the machine results in no contaminated waste disposal costs. How to protect the pump with no service liquids or lubricating oil? Arguably, vacuum pumps with a uniform temperature control throughout, offer the best solution against accelerated degradation and polymerisation. Reliance upon corrosion resistant metals and polymers provide a degree of protection, but can be susceptible to the thermal conditions that are particularly arduous within dry running vacuum pump technology. Additionally, high nickel coatings on ferritic base metals can accelerate galvanic corrosion as soon as any flaws appear. It is widely recognized that highly corrosive media can be handled without the need for such susceptible exotic materials. Machines specifically designed for reliable temperature control ensure that corrosive media remains in the vapour phase, therefore, ductile irons provide a good metallurgical solution. Machines with a uniform temperature profile throughout, offer the ability to control heat-accelerated degradation as well as polymerisation.

Variable speed for efficiency and cost saving: Many fields of application do not permanently require a vacuum pump. Although continuous running is ideal for the pump, this would be a blatant disregard of cost. Because of the necessary warm-up and shutdown cycles, it is only worth switching off the pump if it is to be idle for long periods. Pumps with variable speed operation, and those with switched phase modes of operation, provide the optimal solution. In other words, when there is no requirement for vacuum the pump automatically switches to a stand-by speed in order to retain heat while ensuring that the pump is inertised. During such times, the suction valve remains closed. Importantly, the power absorbed is significantly reduced in order to save energy and subsequent cost. As soon as vacuum is required, the suction valve can immediately be opened to corrosive flow without the need for additional warm-up cycles.

Practical mode of operation: The key to pumping corrosive media with dry-running vacuum pumps is to avoid condensation. This is achieved by utilizing the heat associated with very high compression ratios within the pump. A prerequisite, however, is that the pump is always at the required operating temperature when corrosive media is introduced. Control of such temperatures is predominantly important during periods of start-up and shutdown. The process should always commence with an adequate warming-up cycle. Generally, this is achieved by running the pump against a closed suction-line valve for a pre-defined period of time. Once the desired internal pump temperature is correct, then the suction line valve can be opened in order to introduce the corrosive media. When shutting down the pump and process, it is important that the pump/system is completely clear of any residual corrosive media. Otherwise, condensation can occur within the pump and/or surrounding pipe-work and valves during

Market demands: Distillation is a method of separating mixtures based on their different levels of volatility. The process involves boiling a liquid mixture to the point where one or more (but generally not all) constituents evaporate leaving another behind. Distillation can roughly be divided in four groups: Laboratory scale, industrial distillation, aromatic distillation, and food processing. Some substances being distilled have thermally sensitive media in solution and can degrade when too much heat is employed. Distillation of heat-sensitive media usually takes place under vacuum to reduce the boiling temperature. Vacuum distillation results in a vent-stream of solvent-laden inert gas which must be cleaned in which to protect the environment and for safety. In many cases there is a pre-condenser located upstream of the vacuum pump in order to reduce the volumetric flow rate by condensing the vapour into a liquid. The purpose of the vacuum pump is, therefore, not really to cope with the

Dry-running vacuum pumps handling corrosive media corrosion. Consequently, it can be deduced that dryrunning vacuum pumps in excess of 250 m³/h must employ a heat dissipation mechanism more advanced than simple jacket cooling, if they are to be suitable for multipurpose plants. Internal rotor cooling provides a solution to this problem when utilized in conjunction with the typical jacket cooled system. Figure 4 illustrates the principle of dissipating heat from all gas-contact surfaces. Importantly, the jacket temperature can subsequently be increased in order to remove problematic quench zones, whilst maintaining internal temperatures of less than 200°C. As discussed earlier, however, the heat transfer rate per displacement volume becomes detrimentally affected as the vacuum pump size is increased. Moreover, peak temperatures below 200°C are seen to be achievable only with a suction capacities less than 400 m³/h. The third, and most effective, way of cooling is through direct gas cooling and is shown in figure 4. This system feeds cold gas directly into the compression cycle, and permits heat transportation through the unit. Such effective cooling is not only achieved through the mixing of hot and cold gas, but also by two additional aspects: (1) The coefficient of heat transfer (Cp) is improved with an increase in gas density, and (2) The increased mass flow enhances heat dissipation. The result is a very homogeneous temperature profile that allows further elevated jacket temperatures without reaching detrimentally high internal gas temperatures.

excessive free vapour and gas load, but rather to handle an optimum flow of unsaturated gas. The pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries are particularly reliant on multi-purpose plants, i.e. manufacturing plants designed for continuously changing media and process conditions. The list of demands placed upon a vacuum pump that must be reliable, in this field, are extensive and can be prioritised as follows: • Safe operation with flammable vapours (Low gas temperature, no mechanical ignition source) • Problem-free handling of corrosive media (elevated gas temperatures avoid condensation, as corrosion occurs only in the liquid phase, pumping of thermally sensitive media / covering agents) • Reliable temperature profile that ensures (1) gas temperatures that is suitably low enough to avoid cracking, while (2) high enough gas temperatures to avoid crystallization (easy rinsing / flushing, easy maintenance / clean in place (figure. 1)) From these demands it is easy to deduce that the ideal temperature condition inside of the vacuum pump is very important. It must neither be too cold nor too warm!

Fig. 3 Distillation process

Optimum cooling for wide ranging applications: Dryrunning vacuum pumps are characterized by almost adiabatic compression with very small mass flow rates. Since the mass flow rate is almost zero during operation at very low suction pressures, and there are no service liquids present, the compression-generated heat cannot be automatically dissipated. Furthermore, the heat created by the extremely high (1,000,000:1) compression ratios is exacerbated further because of the low density of the gas under such levels of vacuum. The simplest way to remove the heat is through jacket cooling of the pump. Figure 4, however, illustrates that the low gas density adversely affects heat dissipation through convection to the cooled jacket. In other words, the temperature distribution throughout the pump is relatively inhomogeneous. As the pump becomes larger, so does the heat transfer rate per displacement volume. Peak temperatures in excess of 200° C are common place with pump capacities in the region of 250 m³/h. Since elevated temperatures can cause “cracking” products to suffer accelerated polymerisation, degradation, or simple sublimation, there exists an increased danger of an active ignition source. In other words, as the clearances within the machine are consumed by product deposition, friction can generate hotspots to the extent of localized ignition. Lowering the peak temperature is only possible if the coolant temperature is extremely low. Along with practical constraints of providing coolant at such low temperatures, problems occur with condensation at the inner wall of the jacket. The cold inner surface of the casing chills any corrosive vapours, as they enter the pump, and causes condensation that leads to

Fig. 4 Temperature profiles of dry vacuum pumps

With regard to the pumping of corrosive media, this solution offers additional advantages. As stated earlier; corrosion will not occur in whilst it remains in the gas/vapour phase. It will only take place if the media is allowed to condense. Furthermore, condensation will only take place if the partial pressure of the condensable component reaches saturation during compression from vacuum to atmospheric pressure. The dilution effect of the Direct Gas Cooling system reduces the partial pressure of the condensable(s) within the pump and actually prevents condensation. Should the vacuum pump be equipped with a post (abatement) condenser, relatively cold gas can be taken from the exhaust flow. Importantly, this downstream condenser must be constructed from suitable corrosionresistant materials. As figure 2 shows; the cold gas is injected into the machine at a point where compression is greatest. Because this point is significantly downstream of the pump suction, neither suction pressure nor flow rate is compromised. ■

Synchronous reluctance motor takes pumping efficiency to new levels At Somerford Pumping Station, the company needed to replace a 20-year old, 115 kW induction motor used to control a single vertical shaft driven borehole pump which abstracts 2.5 million litres of water each day. The IE2 motor was already using a variable-speed drive and was achieving the maximum potential energy saving by using the driveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flux optimization function. The utility was interested in trialling a SynRM to take advantage of the many benefits it could offer.

Synchronous reluctance motor takes pumping efficiency to new levels By Ian Allan of ABB Limited The hunt for ever greater energy efficiency has produced an innovative new motor design, used by South Staffs Water to make even further savings on an already efficient pumping application.

The installation meant removing the existing ABB drive and replacing it with another whose more powerful core processor was ideally suited to operation with the SynRM.

With electricity prices showing no signs of reversing their upward trend, users of energy intensive applications such as pumping for water treatment processes are faced with finding new ways to cut their energy costs.

The results achieved with the SynRM package far exceeded South Staffs Waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hopes.

Although many companies are making use of variable-speed drives and high efficiency motors, which greatly improve energy efficiency, the inexorable rise of energy prices demands they cut their use still further. Squeezing every last percentage of efficiency from a pumping application demands some radical re-evaluation of such fundamentals and seemingly basic components as the motors that power the pumps.

This was the reasoning behind a back-to-basics approach that took a fresh look at one of the earliest designs for motors, dating back to 1923. This is the synchronous motor, which unlike the induction motors more familiar today, can rotate in synchronism with the supply. One particular type of synchronous motor, known as a synchronous reluctance motor or SynRM, has neither a conducting short circuit cage as with the induction motor, nor permanent magnets or a field excitation winding as with other synchronous motors. Instead, it makes use of the magnetic principle of reluctance.

The SynRM motor and drive package is saving South Staffs Water an additional six percent

continued on page 43

Loss distribution and efficiency

This minimalist approach to rotor structure eliminates rotor cage losses, increasing efficiency and giving a smaller motor overall. With lower losses, the SynRM also runs cooler, cutting maintenance costs by extending the lifetime of the motor insulation and lengthening the bearing lifetime or greasing intervals. The SynRM motor is specifically designed to work with variable torque loads being controlled by variable-speed drives. Traditional induction motors are designed for fixed speed operation, which accounts for some 90 percent of the market. For the first time ever, a motor technology has been developed, from the outset, to specifically work with the variable-speed demands of pumps and fans.

South Staffs Water gets more than it bargained for A SynRM was used to great effect by South Staffs Water, improving on an already efficient process.

P u m p O v e r- s i z i n g without harm, and maybe only 50% of its maximum running speed to increase longevity. Thus, there is a trade off between initial purchase cost and long term running costs. However, even if the pump is twice as large and running at half speed, the energy consumption is still the same and even the size (and cost) of the drive motor will be unchanged.

Pump Over-sizing By Brian Hubbard of Cat Pumps (UK) Ltd In the context of reciprocating pumps, sizing is a matter of judgement and no-one can say definitively if a pump has been oversized or not. This is because the operating efficiency of a reciprocating pump is largely constant over a wide range of operating speeds.

In a nutshell, although the initial capital investment cost will be higher for a larger reciprocating pump, the energy consumption will remain about the same as for a smaller, faster-running pump. The advantage is that long-term operating costs can actually be reduced, as consumption of spare parts will be lower, reliability will be higher and downtime will be lessened, leading to lower life cycle costs. ■

When selecting the optimum pump size, there are major differences in philosophy between roto-dynamic and reciprocating pumps. Whereas over-sizing a centrifugal pump has disadvantages both operationally and in energy consumption, choosing a reciprocating pump that is larger than is strictly necessary for the application and then running it at a lower speed to achieve the required flow rate offers a number or advantages. Whereas the efficiency of an oversized roto-dynamic pump can be way off the optimum, the energy consumption of a reciprocating positive displacement pump varies very little between sizes for a specific performance duty. It is only when running a reciprocating pump at less than 20% of its maximum pressure rating that its energy efficiency starts to reduce significantly.

Synchronous reluctance motor takes pumping efficiency to new levels continued from page 42

“The biggest benefit, above all others, is the six percent reduction in energy,” explains Keith Marshall, Supply Director at South Staffs Water. “While being one of the most efficient companies in the industry, our electricity bill is more than £9 million per year and rising through increases in wholesale energy prices. Pumping water accounts for some 90 percent of this spend as we have one of the highest pumping head of any UK water utility because of the deep boreholes and hilly terrain within our area of supply. So a six percent reduction on one pump in a system that was already very efficient is massive news for us. “Including the UK government’s Enhanced Capital Allowances (ECAs), we estimate the return on investment to be between five to six years. Given that the existing drive and motor were already fairly efficient and therefore squeezing more savings was always going to be difficult, then this is a very acceptable return.”

Like for like comparison

The application was designed, installed and commissioned by ABB Drives Alliance member Sentridge Control: “What is significant is that we chose to trial the SynRM on an application that was already using leading edge drive technology, although it was controlling a 20-year old high efficiency induction motor,” explains Sentridge’s Glen Hickman.

Cat Pumps’ 3507 Series triplex plunger pump.

Conversely, compared to a roto-dynamic pump, there are big advantages to specifying an ‘oversized’ slower running reciprocating positive displacement pump. NPSH required is lower, the working life of core components will be longer, the amount of consumables will be fewer, as well as there being a reduction in both the risk of break-down and in noise levels.

“We could have reduced the size of the motor but for the purpose of a like-for-like comparison we opted to retain the same frame size,” says Hickman. “The additional six percent energy saving is incredible given that the application was already deemed to be extremely energy efficient. If we choose an older motor and drive combination elsewhere on the plant we believe the energy savings could easily reach 10 to 15 percent. We are now looking at applications that are using really old drive technology or where a motor-drive combination is deemed suitable.”

If a customer is going to use the pump intermittently, then Cat Pumps can recommend a smaller pump to run at a higher speed. And if the initial purchase price or space considerations are more important that life-time costs then again we can suggest a much smaller, faster-running pump. But if the priority is long-term reliability over extended running periods, then we would always recommend a larger, slower running pump. It can be of benefit to oversize.

South Staffs Water has brought forward its investment programme to extend the benefits of the SynRM across more of its operations. “This is such a sizable leap forward in technology over traditional induction motors that we are now considering other applications across our sites,” says Marshall. “Suddenly other applications that might have had low priority become easy targets within our investment programme.” ■

Experience shows that even if an end-user operates a premium brand reciprocating pump at 100% of its maximum flow and pressure, it will run satisfactorily for long periods of time and still demonstrate good durability and life. However, eventually its long-term reliability and consumption of spares will be affected. In arduous, critical applications, we might select a pump at say 75% of its maximum pressure to give a generous margin for misuse

Pumps used as turbines greater than 10m) but where the local electricity supplies are inadequate or unreliable. An example of this is Brazil (with the exception of the semi-arid areas in its north east) where it is almost impossible to find a location that does not feature a small waterway or rapids. At the same time, the country’s geography/topography makes it difficult to supply remote settlements with electricity. It therefore makes sense to use these widely available hydropower sources to produce electricity locally rather than relying on diesel generators for which fuel has to be purchased and with their attendant risks to the environment.

Pumps used as turbines By Mark Ellis of KSB Ltd Rising energy prices and limited energy resources call for alternative solutions that help save money and are environmentally friendly. Utilising pumps as turbines (or PaTs for short) is a well-known concept in the pumping industry. It offers huge advantages such as low investment outlay as well as low service and maintenance costs, with the added benefit of pumps being more straightforward to operate and maintain than conventional turbines.

PaTs also have a role to play in locations where power is both available and reliable. The need for cleaner, renewable energy that is cost effective means that PaTs open up the opportunity for water utility companies to look at exploiting smaller flows within their asset base, previously considered uneconomical, as well as replacing existing conventional hydroturbines. Typical examples of this are compensation flows and spill flows from dams, but other flows such as final effluent outfalls from sewage treatment works can be considered. The lower procurement costs of PaTs coupled with high (and increasing) energy prices means that the payback period of PaT systems are usually between 3 and 5 years. The power generated by these PaTs offsets the overall costs of the infrastructure and puts power back into the national grid.

The principle of a pump used as a turbine is to pass a flow of water the “wrong way” through a pump, allowing the head (pressure) in the flow to act on the impeller blades, so running it in reverse and providing a torque on the output shaft which can be used to drive something. Most commonly, that “something” is an asynchronous generator (a standard squirrel cage induction motor driven in reverse) converting the mechanical energy to electricity, which can be consumed on site and/or fed into the local grid (sold to the local power supply company). But that “something” could equally be another piece of machinery, even a pump.

Some would argue that, unlike conventional turbines, PaTs do not have adjustable guide vanes/blades for adapting to fluctuating water supply and cite this as a disadvantage. However adjustment to fluctuating water flows is possible by splitting the total volume amongst several PaTs of different sizes, bringing them into and out of service according to changing demand. The running of multiple units requires minimal control, so it is not surprising that PaTs are starting to create significant interest in the current economic climate, where reducing energy costs are becoming a top priority. The fact that the turbine and the generator are both widely used pieces of equipment, so can be operated and maintained by existing staff without the need for any specialist training, adds to their attraction.

End suction pump as turbines

Hydraulically a pump in turbine mode can handle a larger flow of water than when in conventional pumping mode and more importantly the energy output can be higher than that used to run the same unit as a pump. As a result of this characteristic PaTs have been used in various parts of the world in preference to, or to replace, conventional hydroturbines.

Split volute casing pump run as turbine

Many types of pumps - end suction, axially split case and multistage ring section, for example - can be used as turbines, both in horizontal and vertical configurations, so there is plenty of flexibility in adapting this technology to suit specific flows, heads, site conditions and space constraints. Couple this to that fact that a single PaT can be used to generate from as little as 1kW up to hundreds of kilowatts, even megawatts, only serves to underline the usefulness of the technology. There is also scope to use PaTs in pumped storage schemes, where low cost energy is used outside peak hours to run the units as pumps, lifting flows to a higher level, where it is stored to be used to generate electricity at times of high demand by returning the flow through the same units. This concept is also being considered as a way of dealing with energy generated from renewable sources such as wind power, where the power is not necessarily generated when demand exists. ■

Avon Dam energy recovery system successfully uses the pump as turbines solution.

PaTs can be seen at their best where there is a relatively constant water supply with suitable available head (typically

Environmental concerns drive Progessing Cavity P u m p Te c h n o l o g y F o r w a r d Environmental concerns drive Progressing Cavity Pump Technology Forward By Simon Lambert of NOV Mono® The movement towards environmentally friendly technologies and recycling is helping to change the face of the modern pump and driving the creation of new and improved products. Simon Lambert looks at some of the factors involved. An excellent example of a rapidly emerging environmental technology that places new and very specific demands on the pumps involved is thermal hydrolysis. In simple terms, this involves the process of heating and treating waste sludge from WWT plants in order to liberate the biogas (usually methane) it contains, which can then be used as a fuel to generate power and heat. Progressing cavity pumps are ideal for transferring the waste sludge through the process and this is where challenges can arise.

The problems of high temperatures and especially aggressive liquids have been overcome in the new generation of progressing cavity pumps designed for biogas production applications.

There’s even hope for biogas producers who are using progressing cavity pumps which are not currently up to the task. Some pump manufacturers now offer spares designed for thermal hydrolysis applications which can be retrofitted to existing pumps, allowing the operator to bring their equipment into line with the stringent demands of waste recycling.

At the heart of the problems is the high temperature that is usually involved, which can be anywhere between 70oC and 130oC. The temperature is necessary to generate a higher biogas yield, but it can have a detrimental effect on the pumps involved, especially as it is combined with the high pressures involved, plus the aggressive, organic and acidic nature of the hydrolysed sludge itself. The sludge has a low viscosity, and often a high solids content, and this has lead to biogas producers reporting frequent problems with the progressing cavity pump stator separating from the pump casing in as little as 6 months, not to mention mechanical seal failures, gearbox failures, joint leakages, long lead-times and expensive spares costs. Clearly there has been a need for a progressing cavity pump that is specifically built for this purpose, and able to deliver a significantly longer operating life than the conventional alternatives.

Fortunately, some pump manufacturers have responded rapidly to this need. Modified rotor geometry designs have been created which allow the progressing cavity pump to provide the reliable performance demanded by the thermal hydrolysis process. Using knowledge and experience gained from providing pumps for use on demanding offshore applications, new rubber stator compounds have been developed which are extremely resistant to the temperatures and aggressive liquids involved. New ways of anchoring the stator inside the pump casing have also helped eliminate problems that previously existed in this area, while solutions have also been found to handle the higher solids loadings which are required for greater biogas production capacities.

While the basic principles behind today’s pumps have remained unchanged for centuries, they continue to adapt to meet today’s new demands.

While the basic principles behind today’s pumps have remained unchanged for centuries, the modern trend towards environmental friendliness has once again illustrated that the pump industry remains as resilient, innovative and able to meet new challenges as it ever was. ■

Many of this new generation of thermal hydrolysis pumps have now reached the stage where they have been thoroughly tested on real-world applications. Durability, performance and reliability have all been proven, and an ongoing process of monitoring, developing, improving and testing will ensure that these parameters continue to improve as time goes on. The progressing cavity pump can now offer an extremely practical and reliable solution for the biogas production process, but there are other factors still to consider.

Every pump requires periodic maintenance, and those involved in biogas production are no exception. Fortunately, pump manufacturers have again come to the rescue on this point, and there are now progressing cavity pumps designed specifically for thermal hydrolysis applications which offer impressive maintenance capabilities. Some of those on today’s market are designed to be stripped, unblocked and maintained in placed in a fraction of the time that might be expected. Not only does this simplify the maintenance work, but it also dramatically reduces downtime. It also allows these pumps to make their contribution to the green agenda by encouraging more efficient recycling of waste and contributing towards higher biogas yields (as well as shortening the payback period!).

Founded in 1981, UK-based Flotronic Pumps enjoys an international reputation for its unique ‘ONE-NUT’ air-operated double-diaphragm pump design which allows rapid disassembly for maintenance and parts replacement. The doublediaphragm design also provides compelling advantages over alternative pump types including ‘self-prime’, ‘dry-run’, ‘dead-head’ and solids handling capabilities.

Flowserve is the world’s premier supplier of industrial flow management services. The Company produces engineered pumps, precision mechanical seals, automated and manual quarter turn valves and actuators and provides a range of related flow management services, primarily for the process industries. We are the largest pump manufacturer in the world for the Petroleum, Chemical and Power Generation industries.

Flotronic’s success also comes from a willingness to be flexible and adaptable, qualities reflected in the company’s ability to accessorise and customise to a client’s precise specification. In fact, the Flotronic product range boasts as many as 60 million variations! There are also upgrades including leak protection, alarm systems, pulsation dampers, counter systems and two and four wheel support trolleys.

Flotronic has always been pioneering and the recently launched Minichem and ‘H’ Series pumps are great examples of the company’s appetite for innovation in the face of new challenges. The Minichem is machined from one solid block of PTFE, a unique concept based on the ‘ONE-NUT’ air-operated double diaphragm design. A key benefit of the ‘ONE-BLOCK’ design is that it avoids the need for separate manifolds. This means no manifold seals and therefore no potential leak paths. The Minichem is ideal for the chemical, pharmaceutical and similar industries, pilot plants (in sampling lines, for example) and as an emergency pump for hazardous chemical recovery.

Versatility is key to Flotronic Pumps’ approach to design. The company’s products can be used in almost any application including pumping aggressive chemicals, transferring foodstuffs and providing constant liquid feeds. They are also able to transfer thin or viscous liquids including aggressive chemicals, adhesives, cosmetics, drinks, dyes, foodstuffs, paints, pharmaceuticals, solvents, slurry and water.

Principal products include chemical process pumps e.g. Durco Mark 3 ISO, Durco Mark 3 ANSI, Polychem, split case end suction pumps such as LR, LNN, LN, overhung impeller, end suction pumps for water applications such as MEN. Other product ranges include D-Line, vertical in-line pumps and Pleuger submersible pumps. Flowserve supplies pumps in a wide range of materials including cast iron, ductile cast iron, bronze, stainless steel, duplex stainless steel, alloy 20, stainless steel, ni-resist and high nickel alloys, Hastelloy, monel, titanium and zirconium.

We have a proven track record of delivering high quality pumps and pumping systems to all sectors in particular the water and waste water industry. We have a passion for our business and this is reflected in the quality of our staff and in a loyal customer base that keeps on growing.

Hardide advanced surface cobalt- and binder-free coatings give unparalleled protection to the internal and external surfaces of metal parts that are subject to wear, erosion, corrosion and chemical attack. Applied by low temperature gas-phase deposition of nano-particulate tungsten carbide/tungsten, the coatings offer a unique combination of abrasion, erosion and chemical resistant properties while being tough, ductile and impact resistant.

We invented the screw centrifugal impeller in the 1960s and are a company totally dedicated to its development and improvement. Our continuous research and development programme has led to a family of pumps being developed all incorporating the screw centrifugal impeller which has become synonymous with solving pumping problems. Whilst all Hidrostal designs deliver low life cycle costs they have the ability to handle sewage sludges up to 8% DSC and pump unscreened sewage without blockages, making them truly ‘fit for purpose’.

These 3D coatings can be applied to internal surfaces and complex geometries, giving a key advantage over conventional line-of-sight coatings and enabling design engineers to consider radical new-part design possibilities.

Whilst our main market is municipal sewage and sludge, we operate in many niches in the industrial sector where the requirement is for solids handling, pumping viscous liquids or gentle/low shear pumping. Some practical examples of this are pumping fruit and vegetables, oily water mixtures, crystalline slurries, etc.

The properties of the coating give rise to exceptional wear and erosion resistance in pump applications, and operational efficiency can be improved on positive displacement pumps, drilling mud pumps, reciprocating pumps, progressive cavity pumps, multi-stage centrifugal pumps, lobe pumps and vane pumps.

For all markets we can supply submersible/immersible pumps in standard or ATEX construction, end suction pumps for horizontal or vertical mounting and portable self priming pumps with electric or diesel engine drives.. All pumps can be supplied in a variety of materials which best suit the application.

Typical pump applications for Hardide coatings include impellers, housing, vanes, shafts, cylinders, plungers, neck/wear rings, rotors and sleeve bearings. In addition to hardness, wear and chemical resistance properties, the other key attributes for these uses are acid resistance, zero porosity, and antigalling.

Hidrostal will design and supply complete pumping installations, including pumps, pipework, valves and motor control centres, etc. We also offer a specialist pump hire service for large or complex schemes.

Hardide offers a range of standard coatings and our technical and engineering teams can work in partnership with customers to develop custom coating solutions for the most challenging of erosion, wear, abrasion, corrosion, galling or fretting problems.

Our in-house design and engineering teams have an excellent reputation for their high level of technical ability together with the quality of their workmanship. We are justifiably proud of our well-earned reputation for providing both innovative and cost effective pumping solutions that really do work!

A WORLD LEADER IN ENERGY SAVING FOR PUMPING APPLICATIONS... A world leader in motor and drive technology, WEG supplies its energy saving motor-inverter packages and turnkey automation systems to control some of the most prestigious pumping projects in the world: desalination plants, hydro electric facilities, irrigation systems, water and waste treatment plants, cavity pumping applications, oil extraction and major testing facilities - to name but a few. WEG supplies low voltage, medium voltage and high voltage motors - including ATEX- compliant hazardous area machines - and the new WQuattro LV line of super premium efficiency motors, which achieves the highest efficiency in the market, exceeding the requirements of the impending IE4 Super Premium Efficiency classification across its entire output range.

Watson-Marlow Pumps Group is the world’s largest manufacturer of tube and hose pumps. Peristaltic pumps have no valves , seals or glands - the fluid contacts only the bore of the hose or tube. Simple to install, easy to use and quick to maintain, they are the world’s fastest-growing pump type. Following recent acquisitions, aseptic filling and capping systems specialist Flexicon, and sinusoidal pump company MasoSine, significantly strengthen the company’s offering to the process and packaging machinery industries.

WEG have also recently launched the W22 WIMES motor which covers the Water Industry specification and is available as IE2 or IE3.

MasoSine pumps enable Watson-Marlow to increase its flow rate range and handle higher viscosities without shear or cavitation.

The operation of these energy saving motors is further optimised with WEG’s inverter drives, which can save up to 50% in running costs in some pumping applications. For example, WEG’s new CFW-08 Multipump AC drive saves substantial amounts of energy, by allowing the control of up to four pumps from one variable frequency drive (VFD). Complementing this efficiency, WEG’s IP56 ‘Wash’ inverter provides greater protection against contaminants in pumping applications, in food, beverage, and chemical industries.

Watson-Marlow Flexicon bring aseptic liquid filling, plugging and crimp capping systems to users in pharmaceutical and diagnostics applications where high precision and efficiency are required. The new pump portfolio will enhance end-user processes through reduced product damage, flow rates to 90 cubic metre/hr and pressures to 15 bar, and minimal maintenance downtime, thereby delivering savings on process and equipment running costs.

WEG is an ISO 14001 certified manufacturer, and has a truly global presence with representatives on every continent, in over 60 countries; and a network of 1100 service centres worldwide.

It is appreciated that not all enquiries will be relevant to you, but always take a moment to read the details – don’t miss an opportunity! BPMA provide this service to all members completely free of charge.
