If a circulation pump can operate at 2 or more operating characteristics representing the relationship between head (Н) and flow rate (Q), the measurement shall be performed at the characteristic that ensures the maximum value of the product Q  × H is achieved.

Head (Н) is the height, in metres, of the water column generated by the circulation pump at the specified operating point. Flow rate (Q) means the volumetric flow rate of water passing through the circulation pump in m³/h.

The point at which the product Q × H has its maximum value is found, and the flow rate and head at this point are determined as:

The system curve is a graphical representation of the relationship between head and flow rate (Н = f (Q)) resulting from friction in the heating system or cooling distribution system, as shown in Figure 2.

where:

H_ref is the head on the reference control line at various flow rates;

P_1,meas is the measured electrical power;

H_meas is the measured head.

The measured values of P_L and the load profile graph shown in Figure 3 are used to calculate the average compensating power (Р_Lavg):

where:

n_s is the specific speed of the circulation pump in revolutions per minute (rpm), calculated using the following formula:

where n_100 % is the rotational speed of the circulation pump in rpm, determined at Q_100% and H_100 %.

6. Tests (measurements) of the indicators shall be performed under the following conditions:

а) a stand-alone circulation pump in a housing shall be tested as a single unit;

б) a stand-alone circulation pump without a housing shall be tested with a housing identical to the pump housing intended for use with the pump;

в) an integrated circulation pump shall be removed from the product, and its Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) shall be measured with a standard pump housing;

г) a circulation pump without a housing intended for installation in a product shall be tested with a standard pump housing.

7. The Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of stand-alone and integrated circulation pumps shall not exceed 0,23.

8. The operating documents accompanying circulation pumps, as provided for in paragraph 13 of the Technical Regulation, shall contain the following information on their characteristics and parameters:

а) the Energy Efficiency Index (ЕЕI) of circulation pumps, specified in the pump marking, on its packaging and in the operating documents in the form "ЕЕI ≤ 0,[ХХ]";

б) for stand-alone circulation pumps, the statement: "Compliance criterion for the most efficient circulation pumps ЕЕI ≤ 0,20;

в) for circulation pumps intended for drinking water, information on the intended use: "This circulation pump is intended for drinking water only." This information shall also be indicated on the circulation pump packaging;

г) information concerning the disassembly, reuse and disposal of the pump.

IV. Permissible Deviations of the Energy Efficiency Parameters of Circulation Pumps During Tests (Measurements) After Their Placing on the Market

9. If tests (measurements) of circulation pumps are performed after their placing on the market in the customs territory of the Union, tests (measurements) shall be performed on 1 representative sample of each circulation pump model.

A circulation pump model shall be considered compliant with these Requirements if the Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of the representative sample of the circulation pump model does not exceed the values established for this circulation pump model in accordance with paragraph 7 of these Requirements by more than 7 %.

In other cases, 3 randomly selected circulation pumps of this model shall be subjected to tests (measurements). The circulation pump model shall be considered compliant with these Requirements if the average value of the Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of these 3 representative samples of the circulation pump does not exceed the value specified in the second paragraph of this clause.

In other cases, this circulation pump model shall be considered non-compliant with the requirements of the Technical Regulation.

Efficiency of control gear for high‑pressure gas‑discharge lamps

The Energy Efficiency Index (ЕЕI) means the classification system for control gear for fluorescent lamps without integrated control gear according to the efficiency limit values. The classes for non-dimmable control gear are A2 BAT, A2, A3, B1 and B2 (classified in descending order according to efficiency), while those for dimmable control gear are A1 BAT and A1.

Table 16 specifies the Energy Efficiency Indices for control gear intended for operation with the specified lamps or other lamps designed for operation with similar control gear (lamps with identical reference control gear data).

Additional requirements for non-dimmable control gear not specified in Table 16 are given in Table 17.

Dimmable control gear for fluorescent lamps is classified according to the Energy Efficiency Index in accordance with Table 18, based on the class into which the control gear would fall when operated with 100 % luminous efficacy.

Switchable control gear is classified according to the lowest (worst) efficiency, or the class is specified for each lamp with which it is operated.

6. The Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of an electric lamp model is calculated by comparing its power consumption, adjusted for possible losses in the control gear, with its rated power consumption. Rated power consumption is derived from the useful luminous flux (F_use), which is the total luminous flux for lamps with non-directional light emission and the luminous flux within a 90° or 120° cone for lamps with directional light emission.

The EEI is calculated as follows (rounded to two decimal places):

where:

P_cor – the measured power consumption (P_rated) for lamp models without external control gear and the measured power consumption (P_rated), adjusted for possible losses in accordance with Table 6, for lamp models with external control gear. P_rated is measured at the rated input voltage of the lamp;

P_ref – the calculated power consumption, which is calculated using the following formulas:

Table 21

Useful luminous flux is determined in accordance with Table 7.

If disconnection is not possible, their power shall be measured and subtracted from the result.
