pumps) implementing "Ecodesign" Directive 2009/125/EC
▪ Minimum efficiency index: see name plate, key to name plate
(ð Section 4.5, Page 21)
▪ The benchmark for the most efficient water pumps is MEI ≥ 0.70.
▪ Year of construction: see name plate, key to name plate
(ð Section 4.5, Page 21)
▪ Manufacturer's name or trade mark, commercial registration number and place
of manufacture: see data sheet or order documentation
▪ Product's type and size identificator: see name plate, key to name plate
(ð Section 4.5, Page 21)
▪ Hydraulic pump efficiency (%) with trimmed impeller: see data sheet
▪ Pump performance curves, including efficiency characteristics: see documented
characteristic curve
▪ The efficiency of a pump with a trimmed impeller is usually lower than that of a
pump with the full impeller diameter. Trimming of the impeller will adapt the
pump to a fixed duty point, leading to reduced energy consumption. The
minimum efficiency index (MEI) is based on the full impeller diameter.
▪ Operation of this water pump with variable duty points may be more efficient
and economic when controlled, for example, by the use of a variable speed drive
that matches the pump duty to the system.
▪ Information on dismantling, recycling and disposal after decommissioning:
(ð Section 3.6, Page 17)
▪ Information on benchmark efficiency or benchmark efficiency graph for
MEI = 0.70 (0.40) for the pump based on the model shown in the Figure are
