4 Description of the Pump (Set)
4.1 General description
Pump for handling clean or slightly contaminated water.
Verify the fluid composition against the data sheet.
Not approved
for handling explosive fluids or for forming part of an explosion-proof
system!
4.2 Product information as per Regulation No. 547/2012 (for 4" and 6" water
pumps) implementing "Ecodesign" Directive 2009/125/EC
▪
Minimum efficiency index: see name plate, key to name plate
▪ The benchmark for the most efficient water pumps is MEI ≥ 0.70.
▪
Year of construction: see name plate, key to name plate
▪ 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
▪
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 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.
