The BPMA Pump Buyers Guide & Directory 2022/23 A Message from Richard Harden, BPMA President It is with great pleasure that I introduce this 2022/23 edition of the BPMA Pump Buyers Guide & Directory. It contains information about BPMA activities, useful articles, UK pump market data and details of the products and services offered by our members. The BPMA with its long and proud history continues to work with its members to provide training, technical advice on standards and legislation and marketing support and acts as a focal point in representing the UK industry with both the UK government and the European parliament. When writing my message last year, I spoke about external issues influencing and affecting our sector many of which were being caused by the COVID 19 pandemic. 12 months later the world seems to have got to grips with the COVID pandemic but we now have the unfortunate situation in the Ukraine with its war with Russia, which again is causing serious supply chain issues for many of our members. As expected many of our members are overcoming these issues and continue to supply products to the UK, Europe and around the world and as President of the BPMA , I would personally like to thank them for their efforts in these strange times.

I do trust you will find our Pump Buyers Guide & Directory to be both informative and useful.

By: Steve Schofield of the BPMA Liquid pumps and related equipment are the single largest user of electricity in industrial and commercial applications. The UK Government has announced a ten-point plan for a green industrial revolution covering clean energy, transport, nature, and innovative technologies. However, the contribution of pumps to global warming is not being addressed and this is a serious oversight, given the high energy use of pumps and their critical role in maintaining our industrial base and standard of living.

Levelling Up with Regulation 4 Compliance Clarification By: Gary Wilde of the BPMA

The policy challenge

Promoting the efficient use of water, safeguarding water supply, setting legal requirements, and of course protecting public health is a top priority for the British Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA), whilst ensuring a fair and level playing field for its members. Unfortunately, and for quite some time, the BPMA has been receiving feedback from member companies that there has been a degree of misunderstanding in the water sector regarding certification for products for use in water supply. As such, it has been actively pushing for change in this sector by lobbying the UK Government and other interested parties.

Larger industrial pump users have been required to carry out audits of energy use and introduce improvements under the UK’s Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme (ESOS), since 2015. However, some have taken advantage of a loophole allowing them to opt out of this requirement, which would significantly cut their energy use and help the environment. How did pumps get missed The government’s ten-point plan towards a Green Industrial Revolution are diverse, they range from supporting wind power, nuclear energy and zero emission vehicles, to encouraging green buildings and transport, including advanced aviation. However, there is a notable lack of attention to some existing core sectors of UK industry that also have a bright future, but which need to invest in energy savings. The anticipated savings in million tonnes of CO2 equivalent in the 12 years up to 2032 from greening public transport, the shift to zero-emissions vehicles, and green ships amount to 7 MtCO2e. However, if we extrapolate over the period from 2015 to 2032 the hoped-for annual energy savings of 7TWh, produced by greening pumps, would have amounted to 119 TWh or around 60 MtC02e. This is on a much greater scale than the CO2 savings of the three elements of the government’s 10-point plan previously mentioned

In essence, there are currently three (3) relevant approval/certification schemes operating in the UK for Regulation 4 compliance in relation to water fittings and components. These are NSFreg4, WRAS and KUKreg4, with the latter being a member of the BPMA. All three schemes provide the legally required testing and certification demanded by Reg 4, and therefore offer the exact same levels of product approval, and with it the much-valued level playing field. The BPMA therefore approves the use and adoption of each and any of these approval/certification schemes, and their full acceptance by customers. The advantages of the KUKreg4 route are that all certification decisions are made within Kiwa, so they can deliver an immediate certification decision, with no cut off dates for approvals or application submissions, and with no hidden external fees. A particular benefit is that in some circumstances the testing can be cross referenced with existing Kiwa certificates or equivalent BS and EN standards to demonstrate compliance with Regulation 4 enabling a KUKreg4 certificate to be issued without the cost and time in repeat testing. Additionally, there is an option under KUKreg4 1+ Certification for avoiding cyclic 5-year full retests by means of an annual surveillance of the manufacturing facility.

Given their importance, it is not surprising that pumps are big energy users. The question has always been, can better engineering improve matters and deliver significant energy savings that can help us on the road to net zero? Many pumping systems operate inefficiently, however as the pump is ‘doing what it is supposed to’ there is no focus or requirement to look at the energy efficiency of the pump or the system in which it operates. The anticipated savings in million tonnes of CO2 equivalent in the 12-year period up to 2032 from greening public transport, the shift to zero emissions vehicles, and green ships amounts to 7 MtCO2e. However, if we extrapolate over the period from 2015 to 2032 the hoped-for annual energy savings of 7TWh, produced by greening pumps, would have amounted to 119 TWh or around 60 MtC02e. This is on a much greater scale than the CO2 savings of the three elements of the government’s 10-point plan previously mentioned

This more efficient route to compliance means new high efficiency products can be launched to the market far quicker, without the delays previously associated with the approvals process, allowing the all-important energy savings to be realised that much sooner by both the end-user and the environment. In keeping with this clear guidance, it is good to see that many manufacturers are now correctly highlighting that their products meet the requirements of Regulation 4 Compliance, rather than simply citing the certificate issuing body.

A lot of the installed base of pumps is older technology and inherently more energy hungry, and which invariably have been ‘over specified’ because engineers and plant managers have wanted to ensure that if they need ‘more muscle’ for their processes, there is extra capacity available. Older style pumps were therefore typically over-sized and as such seldom work at their optimum efficiency. Newer pumps are designed to operate efficiently at variable speeds, so they have the built-in flexibility demanded without the energy “penalty”.

The enforcement of the Water Regulations is a statutory responsibility of the water authorities, and they employ water regulation inspectors to attend site and examine water systems to ensure compliance. Water authorities are now stating that products must be compliant with Water Regulation 4, not simply WRAS approved. So going forward, it is no longer appropriate to make any reference to products or materials being compliant with WRAS approval. It should be stated that products are Regulation 4 compliant or where appropriate Reg 31 compliant. ■

What action is needed? Decisive action is needed to tighten enforcement. Introducing meaningful penalties, perhaps based on a proportion of company turnover, should be considered. In addition, there must be the political will to resist what is often misinformed pressure from big industry. On the other hand, while many of the cases for upgrading pumps will be clear-cut, financial

BPMA Activity Highlights 2021/22 Third place was awarded to ABB.

BPMA Golf Day 2021, was a photo finish! The scores couldn’t have been closer with four teams tying for 2nd place and having to be separated by the dreaded countback. St. Pierre was a venue we had visited a few times over the years and one we had been asked to play again. The course was in beautiful condition and provided a lovely background for some great golf The event which BPMA has been running for 20 Years is a Texas Scramble, with teams of four taking the best shot to advance the ball, ensuring that at least 3 Drives are used by each team player. Gary Wilde of BPMA commented that “This is a team event, and the beauty of this format is that 3 players can have a shocker on a hole, and it can be rescued by one player having a great shot”

Nearest the pin was won with an excellent shot by Patrick Brown of EMIR software, who were also involved in the race for second place.

Longest Drive was won by ABB’s Dave Hawley with a magnificent drive down the 17th Fairway.

EMIR Software, probably the best-dressed team of the day

Following the golf, players enjoyed an excellent dinner in the evening and a short film of shots from the day, some good and some not so good, provided by Ashman Media, who will be providing a full professional video of the event available to view on the website shortly. Then came the awards:

BPMA Activity Highlights 2021/22 PRESSURE EQUIPMENT DIRECTIVE Old 97/23/EC New EU 2021/2272

European Directives

A Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/2272 amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/1616 concerning harmonised standards in the framework of the Pressure Equipment Directive was published in the EU Official Journal on 21 December (L 457/10). The updated list of harmonised standards concerns seamless and welded stainless-steel tubes, steel forgings for pressure purposes at high temperature and with high proof strength, unfired pressure vessels and vehicle fueling appliances for natural gas vehicles.

INTERNAL MARKET MACHINERY DIRECTIVE Old 98/37/EC New 2006/42/EC Discussions on the Machinery Products Regulation file have progressed at a rapid pace in the last few months.

a) During the last Machinery Expert Group meeting on 10 November, an update on the discussions related to the PED Guideline C-13 was provided by the European Commission. They received various positions from national authorities (FR, DE, DK, SE, ES, BG, CZ, FI, CH), market surveillance authorities and industry representatives (including Orgalim). No information on accidents was provided. The industry contributions focused on examples of the affected equipment negative impact of conformity assessment process if global conformity assessment was to involve a PED Notified Body compared to the current practice of selfassessment by the machinery manufacturer. The Commission however specified that, in order to make a more accurate assessment of the situation, they had previously requested to get more detailed information on the technical characteristics of the affected equipment, which they did not receive. This information would be useful to determine whether the exclusion of PED Article 1 §2(j) could be applied and whether notes 1 and 2 of PED Guideline C-13 are overstretching this article.

On 20 October, the draft report of the rapporteur in the European Parliament’s Internal Market Committee was issued, followed by a discussion of the report in an IMCO debate on 28 October. The rapporteur mainly focused on: proposing new definitions (for machinery products, lifecycle, technical documentation etc.); restoring the option of self-assessment for so-called high-risk machinery (listed in Annex I); introducing stricter conditions for the development of technical specifications in the absence of harmonised standards; providing further flexibility regarding the format of technical documentation (digital or paper); and amending transitional provisions (for instance, extending the deadlines for the repeal of the current Machinery Directive and for the implementation of the future Regulation). Further to the deadline for amendments to the Machinery proposal set on 9 November, IMCO held another debate on 1 December, to discuss the amendments that had been tabled. This gave an opportunity to the rapporteur and shadow rapporteurs to voice their concerns and priority issues for the upcoming negotiations. The rapporteur emphasised that the next discussions are likely to address the following topics: the scope (e.g., issue of inclusion/exclusion of e-bikes), software with a safety function and machines embedding AI systems with a safety function; terminology for ‘high-risk’ machinery and required conformity assessment procedure, exclusion of partly completed machinery for certain provisions, cybersecurity provisions, digital documentation. He pointed out that so far, there has been relatively broad consensus to support the rapporteur’s amendment keeping self-assessment as one of the possible conformity assessment options for machinery in Annex I, and also to allow digital means for documentation (instructions, declaration of conformity).

b) As a way forward, the Commission proposed three options that stakeholders were invited to comment on by the end of January 2021. The first option is the initial suggestion from ADCO PED to delete notes 1 and 2 from PED Guideline C-13. The second option would also involve the deletion of notes 1 and 2 from PED Guideline C-13 but at the same time, the drafting of a new Guideline specifically addressing global conformity assessment for machinery including items of pressure equipment higher than Category I under PED. This option would require ensuring coherence with PED Article 1 §2 j) exclusion for machinery. The third option consists in the modification of the proposed Machinery Regulation, aiming at a single conformity assessment under the Machinery legal framework, including global conformity assessment related to both the integration of items of pressure equipment in machinery, and the protection against exceeding permissible operating limits (pressure). Under this option, the intervention of a third party (Notified Body under the machinery legislation) would only be required for high-risk machinery products integrating pressure items higher than category 1 under the PED.

In terms of next steps in the European Parliament, the first technical meeting with the shadow rapporteurs to develop the first draft compromise amendments will be held early January 2022, with the aim of finalising them in February (the next IMCO meeting is scheduled on 28 February). The vote in IMCO will then take place on 16 March. On the Council side, the former Slovenian Presidency prepared a progress report on the discussions held in the Working Party on Technical Harmonisation, which was presented to the Competitiveness Council on 25 November. The key issues raised by Member States in the Working Party meetings relate to: the terminology of machinery products (preference to use ‘machinery’), exclusion of vehicles which have as their only objective the transport of goods or persons by public road, air, water or rail network except for machinery mounted on those vehicles from the scope of the future regulation (preference to keep e-bikes and e-scooters in the scope), Commission’s empowerment to elaborate technical specifications when standards are not available (general agreement to strengthen the wording so that these specifications are applied as a final resort and under very specific circumstances), third party conformity assessment and Annex I list of high-risk machinery (mixed opinions, some Member States preferring the status quo as prescribed in the Machinery Directive, while others believe Annex I should be considerably adapted). On 1 January 2022, France took over the rotating Council Presidency. A first Council compromise text is expected in due course.

c) Based on the input received, the Commission services will inform on how to proceed on this matter in early 2022. The latest Working Party Guidelines held a meeting in Brussels on 5 September. The group discussed the status the adopted PED Guidelines (version 5.2), the pending ones as well as four new requests to produce PED Guidelines. Within the UK the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has contacted the BPMA with concerns regarding certification of sealant systems for double mechanical seals typically plan 53. They believe some systems are being purchased that do not fully conform to the PED. For more information contact s.schofield@bpma.org.uk

ATEX (EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES) Old 94/9/EC New 2014/34/EU (After 2016) The European Commission published a Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1403 to amend Annex I of

b) Efficiency: benefits clearly outweigh costs generated by the Directive.

the Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/1202 on harmonised standards for light offshore cranes. The amendment of Annex I consists of the inclusion of the reference of harmonised standard EN 13852-3:2021 which gives the presumption of conformity to the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU.

c) Relevance: consensus among all stakeholders that the EMCD is relevant and needed. d) Coherence: legal text is generally viewed as being clear for economic operators, although some stakeholders’ feedback identified a need for some definitions to be further clarified in future (especially fixed installations). Mixed views as to whether the current set of exclusions is coherent and remains appropriate, especially for benign equipment (ref. Ready-made connecting devices). Some stakeholders argued that an outstanding question to be addressed in the future is the need to avoid electromagnetic interference whenever this could affect functional safety.

Standards situation IEC standards 80079-36 & 37 were published in 2016 and include major changes to the marking and documentation of non- electrical goods such as pumps. Pump manufacturers should start working to these two new standards it will be a legal requirement after 31st October 2019. Europump Standards Commission have revised its Atex Guidelines Parts 1 and 2 according to the new standards and situation (+ IECEx). These guidelines will help members with the new requirements.

Publication of the Consultants’ Evaluation study The European Commission published the Evaluation and Fitness Check Roadmap of the Low Voltage Directive on 30 October, inviting stakeholders to provide feedback by 27 November. The purpose of the evaluation is to assess the overall performance of the LVD 2014/35/EU against the standard evaluation criteria: relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, and EU added value. Some key aspects on which this evaluation may focus relate to: checking possible challenges/risks stemming from digitalisation of electrical equipment; assessing whether the recent increasing number of safeguard clauses and objections to harmonised standards raised by Member States may necessitate a change in the scope of the LVD and/or health and safety requirements; and identifying any possible overlaps with other EU legislation, mainly the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU, the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC) 2014/30/EU, and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.

Copies of the Atex Guidelines are available from S Schofield at the BPMA

New Legislative Framework (NFL) In the context of the study supporting the evaluation of the New Legislative Framework (NLF), CSES (Centre for Strategy and Evaluation Services) published the online targeted questionnaire which will be open until 21 January 2022. The European Commission also released the public consultation which stakeholders can respond to by 7 March. Whereas the targeted survey is designated for interested parties who have knowledge about the NLF and NLF-aligned legislation, the public consultation is open to all EU citizens. The purpose of the consultation process is to: •

Assess the effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, coherence, and EU added value of certain aspects of the New Legislative Framework (NLF).

•

Provide an informed assessment of the NLF’s current performance, covering the alignment of harmonisation legislation with the NLF principles and common reference provisions, conformity assessment, the accreditation framework for conformity assessment bodies, and CE marking.

•

Consider the NLF’s ongoing fitness for purpose, in particular given market trends related to digitalisation and the circular economy.

EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility DIRECTIVE) 89/336/EEC Old 2004/108/EC New 2014/30/EU after 2016 On 7 October 2021, the European Commission decided to register a European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) entitled ‘Stop (((5G))) – Stay connected but protected’. The organisers of the initiative call on the Commission to propose legislation to better protect all forms of life from certain alleged risks of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and microwave radiation, to protect against certain other alleged environmental impacts of 5G and related digitalisation, and to ensure effective protection, including against cybercrime, of personal data processed with these new forms of communication technology. The organisers can start the process for collecting signatures from 1 March 2022. If the ECI receives 1 million statements of support within one year from at least seven different Member States, the Commission will have to examine its content in detail and react.

As for the next steps, the draft interim report of the NLF evaluation study is tentatively scheduled to be published at the end of January 2022. The study is supposed to be concluded in March/April.

At the same time, old standards remain published even when new harmonised standards are close to being cited, coupled with delays in the citation of the standards, which leads to regulatory uncertainty. Other challenges that were pointed out relate to the coherence of the EMCD with other Directives: in other words, there seems to be a coherence issue in terms of harmonised EMC standards being developed under the EMCD and RED respectively.

LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE Old 2006 /95/ EC New 2014 /35/EU after 2016 In the framework of the evaluation of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMCD), the European Commission released the final report of the evaluation study that was carried out by the consultant CSES. The conclusions of the study, as summarised below seem to indicate that the EMCD would not be revised but so far, the Commission has not communicated any final decision.

Electro Magnetic Fields Directive (EMFD) Directive 2013/35/EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) – Revision

a) Effectiveness: overall, the EMCD has been effective in contributing towards the achievement of its two objectives (i.e., functioning of the internal market, adequate level of electromagnetic compatibility). Most stakeholders (e.g., industry associations, economic operators, market surveillance authorities) agreed that significant progress has been made towards these objectives. Radio amateur

The European Commission continues working on its legislative proposal to revise the Construction Products Regulation (CPR). The final steps will be completed in the next months as the proposal is now expected to be published in March or April 2022. It is likely to be part of the upcoming Circular Economy package.

As a reminder, the European Commission released the study report on the impact assessment, written by external consultancies, in the autumn 2021. While this document has not yet been published on the Commission’s webpage dedicated to the CPR review.

On 23rd November, the European Commission issued its annual report on export controls. The report shows that dualuse exports represent about 2.3% of total EU exports. Out of a total number of 30.292 applications for and notifications of exports under licences, 603 transactions (exports) were denied (in 2019) representing about 0.02% of total exports. This would put the value of dual-use trade at €119 billion in 2019.

In parallel, in December 2021, the European Commission published different scenarios for the transition pathway for a new construction ecosystem. Built on the updated EU Industrial Strategy and the High-Level Construction Forum in October 2021, the Commission staff working document outlines possible transition pathways for a more resilient, green and digital construction ecosystem.

The new Regulation entered into force on 9th September. Digital Policy Artificial Intelligence

CPR implementation The European Commission published new references of European Assessment Documents (EADs) in the Official Journal in October 2021 (Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1789). These European Assessment Documents enable manufacturers to issue the declaration of performance and CE mark flexible sprinkler hose with end fittings and other construction products.

Discussions are progressing at different paces within the EU Council and the European Parliament on the analysis of the Commission proposal for an Artificial Intelligence Act. In the EU Council: On 3 December, the Slovenian Presidency provided the Telecommunications Council with both a progress report and a partial compromise proposal on the text, addressing issues such as the scope, definitions, prohibited AI practices and the classification of high-risk AI systems.

In the UK OPSS are currently carrying out their own study on the CPR due to the Grenfell Disaster. They are looking to include any piece of electrical mechanical equipment in future UK Construction products regulation. The full review will commence in 2022.

Work has been focusing on the core definition of AI, social scoring and other prohibited practices, remote biometric identification, use cases that fall under high-risk AI, general purpose AI systems and the impact on the law enforcement authorities. Other issues identified by the Presidency as requiring further analysis include requirements for high-risk AI systems, the responsibilities of various actors in the AI value chain, compliance and enforcement, and the relationship with other legislation.

Revision of the DRINKING WATER DIRECTIVE 98/83/EC On 3 December, the Committee on the Drinking Water Directive met for the first time to discuss the Draft Commission Implementing Decision establishing a watch list of substances and compounds of concern for water intended for human consumption. The Draft Implementing Decision includes an Annex, with the first two substances are added to the watch list: 17-beta-estradiol and nonylphenol. If the Committee delivers a positive opinion on the text, the draft implementing act will be adopted. Member States will be called on to put into place monitoring requirements for the potential presence of the substances included on the watch list.

In the European Parliament: The analysis of the Commission proposal has been considerably delayed for internal political reasons, namely the dispute over the designation of a lead Committee, which should nominate a lead Rapporteur. After months of discussions, the following agreement was reached early December:

ECHA is in the process of compiling existing national positive lists of substances authorised in materials in contact with drinking water as part of the implementation of the DWD. The final list will be adopted by the Commission by 12 January 2025.

This decision would significantly diminish the influence of the JURI Committee and in particular of one of its AI experts Axel Voss/Germany/EPP, who recently published the draft of a comprehensive own-initiative report for the Special Committee on Artificial Intelligence in a Digital Age (AIDA) that:

Directive 2014/53/EU – RED

a) Considers that the EU has fallen behind global competition; should not fall further down as regards a human-centric approach to AI and

The Council (COREPER 1) had a meeting on 17 December to confirm its non-opposition to the draft Delegated Regulation on cybersecurity aspects, under the Article 3.3 (d,e,f) of the Radio Equipment Directive. As a reminder, the Council and the Parliament have an official two-month deadline to oppose the Delegated Act, which will expire on 30 December. The national delegations were asked, by 3 December 2021, to indicate their possible opposition to this delegated act, but none of them raised any objections. It is assumed the Delegated Act will be officially published in the EU Official Journal at the end of January or early February 2022. In addition, the discussions on the Standardisation Request related to the standards that are to be developed to meet the requirements of this delegated act (namely protection of network, data protection, and protection against fraud) are ongoing. The Standardisation Request needs to go through the formal consultation process including the Committee on Standards. Therefore, it is likely to be published in March 2022.

b) Analyses EU deficiencies and makes proposals on how to address them: harmonised legislation limited to high-risks applications; data sharing, infrastructures including 5G, digital skills, international cooperation including on military aspects c) Shows support to industry, hoping to “create a technology friendly framework for the future innovation and competitiveness of Europe.” The draft report is currently under examination by the AIDA Committee, where over 1300 amendments have been tabled. Meanwhile, the ENVI Committee presented on 10 December its draft Report for Opinion prepared by MEP Susana Solís Pérez (Spain/Renew), focusing on the following arguments: •

Dual-use items – Regulation (EC) 428/2009 Regulation (EU) 2021/821 on the list of dual-use items has

Overall, the AI act should preserve European values, facilitating the distribution of AI’s benefits across society, protecting individuals, companies, and the environment from risks while boosting innovation and employment and making Europe a leader in the field.

c) Open stakeholder consultation (around October 2021) d) Commission’s legislative proposal (expected for Q4 2022) In view of the definition of ‘electrical and electronic equipment’ or ‘EEE’ in the Recast Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS2), some pumps may be understood as EEE.

The Rapporteur is concerned that the AI Act does not provide sufficient protection to the environment and proposes that the AI Act shall include the environment among the areas that require a high level of protection. This will entail the classification as “high risk AI” of all those systems that can have major negative implications on the environment

After careful study of the Directive 2011/65/EU on RoHS, EUROPUMP and its members come to the conclusion that the following pumps and pump units may fall in scope of this Directive from 2nd of January 2013 on: a) Wastewater lifting stations for non-industrial, municipal, or private use

The Rapporteur for the opinion considers that the AI Act shall not just cover users but must expand its scope to end recipients too.

b) Wastewater pumps for non-industrial or private use c) Pumps for garden ponds and similar applications d) Drainage pumps for non-industrial or private use

WEEE AND ROHS DIRECTIVES 2012/19/EU & 2011/65/EU On RoHS, 2011/65/EU

This means that pumps which were not covered by Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS1) and thus may not comply with the substance restrictions prescribed, but which are now subject to Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS2), can still be made available on the market until 22 July 2019.

Renewal of exemptions Further to the series of renewal requests submitted by the industry in January 2020, the Commission has contracted external consultants, namely Oeko-Institut together with Fraunhofer IZM, to perform the technical assessment. The assessment of sixteen requests for nine RoHS exemptions started in December: it is named RoHS project (‘Pack 22’). The study will cover lead related exemptions 6(a)/6(a)-I, 6(b)/6(b)-I, 6(b)-II, 6(c), 7(a), 7(c)-I and 7(c)-II (AnnexIII).

NOTE: In view of the current wording of Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS2), this also means that the distribution / rental channels and stocks will have to be clear of non-conforming pumps on 22 July 2019. However, in view of the serious economic and environmental impact of such clearance, Industry associations together with the European Commission and Member States authorities are trying to find a solution to mitigate such consequences.

Moreover, the stakeholder consultation for the pack 24 (which includes exemptions 5(b), 18(b), 18(b)-I, 24, 29, 32 and 34 of Annex III and exemption 34 of Annex IV) ran until 8 June 2021. The consultation targeted at the following groups: EEE industry, EEE industry federations, Consultancies, Research institutions & universities, NGOs and Public administrations. The final technical study report is expected in October or November 2021. The consultants are Ramboll/Oeko-Institut. For more information, please refer to the Project Description.

A new Europump Position Paper is now finished and available for RoHs2 this is now available from SJS.

On WEEE 2012/19/EU WEEE2 Directive – NO Further news There will be no link to the RoHs directive

Furthermore, the stakeholder consultation for the pack 23 (which includes exemptions 4(f), 8(b)/8(b)-I, 13(a), 13(b)/13(b)-I/13(b)-II/13(b)-III, 15/15(a) & 9(a)-II - 9(a)-II) ran until 27 May 2021.

On 15 May the European Commission hosted a final workshop on the study on quality standards for WEEE treatment. The objective of this study was to provide the Commission with input in the preparation of an Implementing Act laying down requirements for the quality treatment of WEEE in the EU complementing those in the WEEE Directive, or any other policy option to be identified. The study will also assist in the preparation of a Delegated Act laying down the criteria for the assessment of equivalent conditions for the treatment of WEEE outside the EU.

RoHS General Review As a reminder, the European Commission published in April the RoHS General Review Final Ecorys Report. This study supports the evaluation of the RoHS Directive. Building on desk research and an extensive consultation strategy, the study provides an assessment of the Directive’s effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, coherence, and its EU added value. The study finds that the Directive reached the objective to reduce hazardous substances in EEE in the EU. This has contributed to the protection of human and environmental health. By setting clear standards and providing a level playing field for manufacturers, the Directive has also contributed to the harmonisation and functioning of the internal market. While the exemption process is deemed relevant and important to maintain, industry representatives highlighted delays in assessing and approving exemptions. The renewed commitment of the EU to the transition to a circular economy and a specific focus on electronic equipment as a “key product value chain” may lead to a reassessment of some of the central mechanisms of RoHS.

One of the conclusions of the workshop was that imposing mandatory WEEE treatment standards could have significant environmental impacts, including increasing of the collection rate, and could lead to further job creation. In the context of article 8.5 of the WEEE Directive on the proper treatment of WEEE, Member States may set up minimum quality standards for the treatment of WEEE. Furthermore, after the Waste Package was adopted last year, there was no reference to the WEEE treatment standards (EN 50625 series). MEMBERS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT PUMPS ARE INCLUDED IN THE UK AND YOUR COMPANY NEEDS TO BE REGISTERED WITH THE ENVIROMENTAL AGENCY AND A COLLECTION SCHEME.

BPMA Activity Highlights 2021/22 Another workshop was also organised by the European Commission on 12 November 2021. The goal was to discuss options for the reform and to generate feedback from stakeholders. In short, stakeholders agreed that the authorisation process is too burdensome, slow and controversial. Moreover, it creates a non-level playing field with imports since it applies only to manufacturing in the EU.

In addition, the EU competent authorities for REACH and CLP (CARACAL) also discussed the REACH review on 17-18 November 2021.

The European Commission drafted a format for the registration and reporting of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) as per Article 16.3 of the WEEE Directive. This draft regulation is based on a dedicated study

The next steps of the revision process are: a) Q3 2021 to Q1 2022: targeted stakeholder consultations as part of supporting studies and workshops

b) 2022: drafting of a proposal for a revision of REACH

a) Format for registration of producers, or authorised representatives or third parties acting on their behalf

c) Q1 2022: open public consultation for 12 weeks d) September 2022: publication of the impact assessment

b) Format for reporting to the register on data related to EEE placed on the market. Member States did not agree on the frequency reporting due to different national practices: annual vs quarterly reporting.

e) Q4 2022: Commission adoption of the proposal

c) Format for reporting on data related to WEEE collected, treated, recycled and recovered to be performed on an annual basis.

All registration processes on dossiers submitted by UK companies are now terminated if they were not fully completed before the end of the transition period on 31 December 2020. In addition, any transfer of registrations by a UK company needed to be initiated before 31 December 2020 and needs to be accepted by the successor as soon as possible in 2021, and latest by 31 March 2021. Failing to do so will lead to the revocation of the registrations. This means in practice that, since the end of the transition period:

The entry into force of this draft implementing regulation is also subject to discussion: January 2019 or January 2020. Regarding next steps, DG Environment will consult other services in the Commission (inter-service consultation). The Implementing Regulation will then be discussed with the Member States at the WEEE Committee meeting in January 2018. The final adoption is envisaged in early 2018.

a) All pending UK submissions in REACH-IT are terminated

From this link you can get to the Commission’s FAQs which provide additional information, particularly around the exclusions on the move to open scope.

The above does not apply to dossiers submitted by companies in Northern Ireland, who have updated their country code in REACH-IT. REACH continues to apply to these companies due to the Protocol on Ireland and Northern Ireland. Candidate list

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/atta chment_data/file/393740/LIT_7876.pdf

The Candidate List was updated on 16 July to include 4 new substances: 2-methoxyethyl acetate, Tris (4-nonylphenyl, branched and linear) phosphite (TNPP) with ≥ 0.1% w/w of 4nonylphenol, branched and linear (4-NP), 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-2-(heptafluoropropoxy) propionic acid, its salts and its acyl halides (covering any of their individual isomers and combinations thereof) and 4-tert-butylphenol. The Candidate List now has 201 substances. As from the inclusion in the Candidate List, users of the substance need to comply with Article 33 communication obligations (see also the Orgalim note).

CHEMICALS (REACH) 2006/1907/EC As a reminder, the Chemicals strategy for sustainability adopted by the European Commission on 14 October 2020 lists a series of measures to achieve the EU’s zero pollution ambition for a toxic-free environment and is a key component of the European Green Deal. The Strategy recognises the need for a targeted revision of the REACH legislation to achieve its objectives.

As a next step, ECHA has launched a public consultation for 4 new substances to be potentially included in the next update. Of these substances, we would like to highlight perfluorobutane sulfonic acid (PFBS) and its salts. This substance is used as a catalyst in polymer manufacturing, and its related substances are identified in the Annex XV report as being used in metal chrome plating processes. The deadline for comments is 18 October.

A workshop on the reform of REACH authorisations and restrictions, organised by the Slovenian Presidency in cooperation with the European Commission, was held in Kranj, Slovenia, on 8-9 November 2021. It was intended for REACH experts from all Member States and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). The workshop was also attended by the Directors-General of the European Commission, who are responsible for this area. It aimed to discuss key outstanding issues and identify objectives of the authorisation and restriction reform system. This will provide an important basis for further work by the Council.

Authorisation process The European Commission has finally authorised five out of the six essential uses of chromium trioxide (EC 215-607-8; CAS 1333-82-0) applied by the CTAC consortium. These authorised uses are formulation (use 1); hard chrome plating (use 2); surface treatment aeronautics and aerospace (use 4);

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. On January 1st 2015 Motors with a rated output of 7.5 – 375kW must meet either the IE3 efficiency or the IE2 level if fitted with a VSD. Thus, cutting the annual energy consumption of these engines by around 135 terawatt hours.

miscellaneous surface treatment (use 5); and passivation of tin-plated steel (ETP) (use 6). The review period for all uses will expire on 21 September 2024, thus 7 years after the Sunset Date of chromium trioxide under Annex XIV REACH. Please find both the press release and the new Q&A published by the CTAC Submission Consortium, in order to assist with the implementation As regards lead compounds, 4 substances used in the manufacturing process of batteries remain on the priority list. Although the industry called for granting exemptions specifically for the manufacture of batteries, no exemption has been recommended.

A guideline has now been developed by Europump for Circulators and Water pumps and is available from S Schofield upon request.

On registration, Member States have approved a Commission proposal to improve the compliance of registration dossiers with EU law. The objective is to raise the target of compliance checks from 5% to 20%. With this change, ECHA foresees to have covered approximately 30% of all registered substances by 2027. This will be supplemented with the work performed by the Enforcement Forum.

Circulators 641/2009

Furthermore, ECHA published in October a clarification on the rules for registration of phase-in substances. While the transitional regime under REACH ended on 31 May 2018, certain provisions will still apply until 31 December 2019

At a status meeting 14 December 2020 for circulators between the policy officer (Ronald) and VHK and VM, following the meeting 7 December between Europump, VHK and VM, it was decided to exclude the policy option setting requirements for integrated circulators at EEI ≤ 0.18.

At the consultation forum in June 2019 Conrad Brunner (ECOS /NGO’s) tabled a proposal which advised that the circulator Industry could and should meet the following. EEI≤0.20 by 2022 going down to EEI≤0.18 by 2025 and a benchmark of EEI≤0.15.

Replaced by the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) – No News

Scenarios: PO2a:

The IED Committee providing opinions on implementing acts including BAT conclusions, called Article 75 Committee, will meet on 25 October 2021 (see agenda). The Committee will assess Best Available Techniques (BAT) for the Large Combustion Plants (see draft Commission Implementing decision and annexes here). These BAT conclusions will be used by Member States as a reference for setting permit conditions, including emission limit values for selected pollutants.

PO2a1: EEI ≤ 0.20 for standalone and EEI ≤ 0.23 for integrated PO2b:

EEI ≤ 0.18 for standalone and EEI ≤ 0.20 for integrated

PO2c1: EEI ≤ 0.18 for standalone and EEI ≤ 0.23 for integrated

After a positive opinion on draft implementing decisions, these are adopted by the Commission and published in the Official Journal. All finalised BREFs and adopted BAT conclusions can be accessed here.

Water Pumps 547 /2012 Lots 28 and 29: NO Further news of significance

Europump proposal for Pumps and Pumps Systems is expected to be incorporated.

The Final report on the Lot 11 water pump review was received in December (433 pages) this is for Regulation (EU) No. 547/2012 on Eco-design for water pumps. Europump submitted their comments early in March and to date have received no further response from the consultants or commission.

ENERGY EUROPEAN COMMISSION PROPOSALS FOR AN ECO-DESIGN FOR ENERGY-USING PRODUCTS (EUP) FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE –

Original requirements:

Directive 2005/32/EC Energy related Products (ErP) Directive 2009/125/EC

a) Phase 1 by January 1st, 2013, and have a MEI of 0.1 (10% cut off) b) Phase 2 would be introduced January 1st 2015 and would be a MEI of 0.4 (40% cut off)

ENER Lot 33: Energy-Smart Appliances: The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) has started a new preparatory study on a potential revision, which will investigate energy-smart appliances and a code of conduct on interoperability.

The benchmark set by the commission is MEI of 0.7 (70% cut off). The standard EN 16480 has now been published by CEN, however this was publication was carried out without incorporating comments received on the FDIS circulation. A new work item has now been raised by CEN so the work to incorporate the comments should start soon.

The scope of the study includes: •

EEI ≤ 0.20 for standalone and EEI ≤ 0.20 for integrated

High flexibility potential with few comforts and/or performance impacts: dishwashers, washing machines,

(ii) the energy efficiency of three-phase motors which are not brake motors, Ex eb increased safety motors, or other explosion-protected motors, with a rated output equal to or above 75 kW and equal to or below 200 kW, with 2, 4, or 6 poles, shall correspond to at least the IE4 efficiency level set out in Table 3

Extended Product Approach (EPA) A Consultation Forum took place on 29 October 2019 in Brussels. It appears that Europump’s proposal was accepted and will move into an Impact assessment and the writing of legal text.

Europump has now created a guideline which is available from S. Schofield

Europump proposed the following; •

EEIv for –

Single Stage Pumps up to 45 kW pump input power

–

Booster Sets up to 150kW pump input power

•

EEIv threshold value of EEIv ≤ 0.62 for Single Stage Pumps

•

EEI threshold value of EEIv ≤ 0.50 for Booster Sets –

•

Energy Labelling Regulation Regulation 2017/1369/EU Previously Directive 2010/30/EU The Ecodesign and Energy Labelling Working Plan 2020-2024, which will guide the European Commission’s work on individual product categories for the next years, was expected to be finalised by the end of 2021.

Two Tier Approach : 1st Product information; 2nd Threshold

EEIc or MEI for all other Pumps in Scope –

EEIc threshold value EEIc ≤ 1.00

–

MEI threshold value MEI ≥ 0.40

However, due to delays and the busy schedule of the Commission and the contracted consultants, the finalisation and official publication of the final Working Plan are scheduled on 30 March 2022.

By implementing the above industry could offer 30TWhr of electrical savings.

The Commission plans to adopt it together with several other legislative proposals in a ‘green package’, including the Sustainable Products Initiative, which will widen the scope of the Ecodesign Directive beyond energy related products and include additional cross-cutting aspects.

The Extended Product approach standards (pr EN 17038 Parts 1 &2) have now been published. Part 3 for “Booster sets” (Multiple pump assemblies the standard requires a substantial rewrite.

For more information, you can check the final report of the preparatory study and the Commission’s Roadmap.

With regards to part 4 (submersible borehole) the draft has now sent to CEN and will be circulated for comment soon.

Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU

We have had a meeting with BEIS to discuss their own proposal on water pumps. MEPS = Minimum Energy Performance Standards Europump propose an EEI of .62, BEIS propose an EEi of .57, that’s why it will be important to join the stakeholder meeting in March 22. Which is now put on hold

After publishing its proposal for recast of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) on 14 July, the European Commission accepted feedback on until 19 November, which can be accessed here. Furthermore, on 19 November, the Council of the European Union published a progress report on the European Commission’s proposed revision.

Motors, ENER Lot 30: The Commission announced on 1 October that it adopted the measure. As a next step, the final text will be published in the Official Journal by end of October/early November. The latest versions of the text and Annexes are available through the links.

Here are some of the main points and positions of the EU Member States (MSs): a) Many MSs express concerns about the level of ambition of the new 2030 EU target and inquire how the Commission considered the cost-efficiency and the technical and economic potential of MSs when defining it.

Revised sope is as follows ; Energy efficiency requirements for motors shall apply according to the following timetable, these are set out in the ANNEXES to the repealed 640/2009:

b) Regarding the increased 1.5% energy savings obligation up to 2030, several delegations consider that such an increase for all MSs is overly ambitious. Preliminary concerns were expressed also on the exclusion of savings from technologies using direct fossil fuel combustion and notably schemes promoting the replacement of old heating technologies with gas-operated systems or appliances.

(a) from 1 July 2021: (i) the energy efficiency of three-phase motors with a rated output equal to or above 0,75 kW and equal to or below 1 000 kW, with 2, 4, 6 or 8 poles, which are not Ex eb increased safety motors, shall correspond to at least the IE3 efficiency level set out in Table 2;

c) The MSs express broad support for the energy efficiency first principle. However, many also have concerns on the level of regulatory intervention proposed, the ambiguity of the provisions and the increased administrative burden.

(ii) the energy efficiency of three-phase motors with a rated output equal to or above 0,12 kW and below 0,75 kW, with 2, 4, 6 or 8 poles, which are not Ex eb increased safety motors, shall correspond to at least the IE2 efficiency level set out in Table 1;

d) On the requirement of annually renovating 3% of the total floor area of the buildings owned by public bodies and achieving nearly-zero energy buildings (NZEB), MSs see it as too stringent, and emphasise that in many historic public buildings reaching these levels is not possible.

(b) from 1 July 2023: (i) the energy efficiency of Ex eb increased safety motors with a rated output equal to or above 0,12 kW and equal to or below 1 000 kW, with 2, 4, 6 or 8 poles, and single-phase motors with a rated output equal to or

e) When it comes to H&C, particular concerns are raised on the tightening of the criteria for the definition of an efficient H&C system. While agreeing with the objective of increasing primary efficiency and the share of renewable

energy in H&C, there are questions on the prioritisation approach of some technologies over others, such as waste heat, high-efficiency co-generation, and the general reference to renewable energy.

g) Establishment of databases and provisions for data exchanges.

As next steps, the proposal will be reviewed by the European Parliament and by the Member States in the European Council. Thereafter, together with the European Commission they will enter negotiations before making it European law.

h) Strengthening measures for the Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs).

INTERNAL MARKET

j) Obligation on MSs to ensure the appropriate level of competence for building professionals carrying out integrated renovation works.

OUTDOOR NOISE DIRECTIVE

Provisions for the regular inspections of heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems, done by qualified and/or certified experts.

As next steps, the Commission will accept feedback on the proposal by 10 February 2022, which will be summarised and presented to the European Parliament and Council with the aim of feeding it into the legislative debate.

Directive 2000/14/EC (amended by the Directive 2005/88/EC). The European Commission has resumed its work on the revision of the Outdoor Noise Directive (OND). In line with the two-stage approach agreed in March 2021, the work focuses first on the revision of measurements methods set in Annex III.

Some of the main calls from the MEPs include increasing the renovation rate of the building stock to 3% per year and strengthening the current provision on the Long-Term Renovation Strategies (LTRSs). They also push for the development of minimum energy performance standards (MEPS), one-stop shops, a boost to the digitalisation of buildings and construction technologies, such as smart meters, smart charging, smart hearing appliances and energy management systems, etc. This comes alongside their call for decarbonisation of heating and cooling (H&C), and incentive schemes to replace old, fossil-based, and inefficient heating systems in buildings.

The European Commission intends to adopt a Delegated Act amending OND Annex III by the first quarter of 2023. According to the latest intelligence, they intend to simplify Annex III by replacing detailed descriptions of test codes with references to up-to-date standards. Several rounds of stakeholder consultations, notably through the Commission Expert Group meetings, are foreseen in the next months. The first meeting of the Expert Group will take place on 17 February 2022. DG GROW invites stakeholders to provide any information to be considered for the first draft of the revised Annex III by 21 January. Subsequent meetings are scheduled in May and then in June/July to discuss the draft delegated act, while the official public consultation is foreseen in the autumn 2022.

Keep heat pumps efﬁcient and protected

Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) (2018/844/EU) On 15 December, the European Commission adopted its legislative proposal for a recast of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and its Annexes. The recast is part of the wider ‘Fit for 55’ legislative package of proposals aimed at halving the EU’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030. Since the buildings sector is one of the main sources of GHG emissions, this Directive is key for delivering the energy and emissions savings required for the Union’s transition to climate neutrality by 2050. The new proposal widens the scope of the EPBD, incorporates new sustainability aspects, and attempts to gives a boost to the renovation potential of the EU building stock.

108 ANTI-FREEZE VALVE

Some of the main amendments and additions include:

Prevents ice from forming in heat pump systems, avoiding potential damage to the heat pump and to the pipes

a) Substitution of the ‘‘Long-term renovation strategies’’ (LTRSs) by ‘‘Renovation Plans’’. b) Requirements for all new buildings to become zeroemission buildings by 1 January 2030, while simultaneously addressing non-energy related issues such as indoor climate conditions. c) Set up of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for buildings and building units owned by public bodies, non-residential buildings, and residential buildings. d) Delegated Acts will establish a common European framework for Renovation Passports by 2024, which will be issued by qualified and certified experts, following an onsite visit.

BPMA Activity Highlights 2021/22 Water Reuse NO Further news

continued from previous page

The legislative file on minimum requirements for water reuse went through the last stages of its legislative procedure. On 13 May, the European Parliament Plenary Session Committee approved the Water Reuse Regulation, whereas the Council adopted its position of 7 April.

Circular Economy Policy In the past months the European Commission has been actively working on the Sustainable Product Initiative’s (SPI) Impact Assessment, which was submitted to the Regulatory Scrutiny Board for approval at the end of November 2021. In the meantime, it was actively engaged in bilateral consultations with relevant stakeholders to refine the first drafts of the legislative text.

As a background, this legislative proposal is aimed at incentivising the reuse of treated wastewater while ensuring a high level of protection of health and the environment. The proposal has also the objective to contribute to alleviating water scarcity in the EU by increasing water reuse, which remains below its potential.

As a reminder, the main aims of the SPI are the broadening the scope of the Ecodesign Directive beyond energy related products, mandatory requirements for recycled content, information and labelling, and digital product passports (DPP).

The new Regulation will be now published in the EU Official Journal and will enter into force on the twentieth day following the publication. It will then become applicable three years after its entry into force.

Priority products under the legislative initiative are electronics, ICTs, textiles, furniture, and high-impact intermediary products such as steel, cement, and chemicals. Further product groups will be identified based on their environmental impact and circularity potential.

The ENVI Committee in the Parliament published the draft report prepared by Simona Bonafè (S&D, IT) on 3 October. Thus far, the document is only available in Italian, but in summary, the rapporteur proposes: a) the need to further define the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in the water reuse supply chain beyond plant operators,

Because of the extended work and busy schedule, the Commission pushed its due date for the publishing of the SPI legislative proposal from 15 December 2021 to 30 March 2022. It will be accompanied by several other proposals, including a Regulation on substantiating environmental claims using the Product/Organisation Environmental Footprint (PEF/OEF) methods and a legislative act on ”Empowering the consumer for the green transition’’.

b) holistic evaluations of risk-management plans by public authorities, c) supports the Commission proposal on minimum quality standards, but advocates including parameters for salmonella, d) encourages that water reuse be not limited to agriculture and is applied to other civil and environmental objectives.

SCIP Database (previously ECHA Waste Database)

Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive

Despite a lengthy debate, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) eventually launched the SCIP database on 28 October 2020, and suppliers must submit SCIP notifications since 5 January 2021. As a reminder, ‘SCIP’ is the database for information on Substances of Concern In articles as such or in complex objects (products) established under the Waste Framework Directive.

Delays are expected in the publication of the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD) revision by the European Commission. Initially planned for early 2022, the proposal for a revision will be presented in June 2022. On 26 October, the European Commission and the Committee of the Regions jointly organised a conference on the UWWTD revision. During the conference, the deputy Director General in DG Environment highlighted areas that could be covered in the revision (remaining urban wastewater pollution and adjusting the directive’s scope; addressing new challenges; and governance) and presented different measures and policy options for each area.

After the IUCLID update in October 21, the following documents have been updated: a) New SCIP Format documents b) Candidate List Package with the new format c) Categories of materials and additional material characteristics included in the SCIP format

Data Policies (new) Upcoming Data Act

d) Validation rules for SCIP notifications

The presentation by the European Commission of a Data Act proposal has been delayed from Q4 2021 to Q1 2022:

e) SCIP Notification Format Preparing a SCIP dossier Water European Innovation Partnership, Water Framework, Water Reuse & Water treatment

a) With the future proposal, the Commission’s intention remains to unleash the 80% of data that is currently not being used across all sectors of the economy.

Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC)

b) However, the proposal will have a complex relation to other legislation, notably with the Data Governance Act which makes data sharing mandatory, with the GDPR on data portability and differentiation of personal and non-personal data, as well as with the ePrivacy Regulation on data generated from terminal equipment.

The Commission adoption of the upcoming proposal for a revision of the Water Framework Directive, containing a review of the list of pollutants occurring in surface and ground waters, and corresponding regulatory standards, is planned for Q3 2022. A recent evaluation found that EU water legislation needed improvement on aspects such as investment, implementing rules, integrating water objectives into other policies, chemical pollution, administrative simplification and digitalisation.

c) A key point still under internal discussion within the Commission services: under which conditions will companies have to share their data with governments (B2G)? According to a recent draft college of Commissioners meetings schedule, the proposal could be adopted by the Commission on 23 February. ■

On 15 December, the European Commission adopted the latest report on the implementation of EU water rules, with the aim of showing EU Member States’ progress towards the 2027 goal for all European water bodies. The report shows that the gap to full compliance with the objectives of the Water Framework Directive is still considerable.

T h e Wo r l d P u m p M a r k e t

The World Market The Russian invasion of Ukraine has increased uncertainty about the economic outlook and key end-use markets for pumps. As a result, publication of the report has been delayed.

The invasion has caused energy prices to rocket, weighing on economic activity globally. The added inflationary pressures have prompted central banks to tighten monetary policy much more aggressively than would otherwise have been the case. This is likely to dampen economic activity and also create headwinds to the capex upcycle. Meanwhile, China’s zero-Covid policy has crimped growth and snarled supply chains.

traders. Weaker Russian oil & gas production does present an upside for key producers elsewhere, such as in North America and the Middle East. Our baseline regarding the conflict is that it is short-lived, ending by Q1 2023 and that current sanctions are not tightened further. There is a strong possibility that the conflict could last well into 2023 and that further sanctions are imposed on Russia. Russia could also retaliate by cutting off oil and gas supplies to Europe, something which is not currently in our baseline. Source: Oxford Economics

Within energy markets, there is much uncertainty surrounding Russian production itself and the supply response from elsewhere. We expect steep declines in Russian oil & gas production this year owing to sanctions and self-sanctioning of

New Products and Innovations Armstrong Fluid Technology

Crest Pumps Ltd

Armstrong has launched a range of Design Envelope Permanent Magnet (DEPM) pumps for light-duty applications using single-phase power (200-230V). The new pump models are available in sizes from 0.25 to 1.5kW and can be installed in either horizontal or vertical piping. Compared to conventional ECM circulators or pumps with loose drives and standard induction motors, Armstrong’s new DEPM pumps provide up to 30% operating cost savings, with increased variable speed efficiency, and the option of realtime performance monitoring and parallel pumping.

The new corrosion resistant EOV range is based on a radically redesigned volute casing and impeller featuring an improved vane design that improves efficiencies by up to 35%. Not only are flow rates and discharge pressures increased, these improvements are achieved absorbing considerably less power and reducing your running costs.

Desmi Ltd

Armstrong’s new DEPM pumps are built to last and can be easily and economically repaired. The pumps also incorporate a constant flow function, and intelligence and connectivity, for access to the subscription-based Pump Manager service.

DESMI have developed a self-contained pump unit for the Asphalt industry, for the addition of chemicals to modify the properties of different asphalt products. It is essentially a “Plug & Play” system, that can be integrated into any existing asphalt plant. This unit can also be used for any other kind of Additive or Injection system application.

KTR UK Ltd ROFLEX KTR launches a new shaft coupling according to DIN 740 which is characterised by its short design and its servicefriendliness. In addition to power transmission, the torsionally flexible coupling compensates for misalignments and dampens torsional vibrations. The ROFLEX is available in two designs and currently in seven sizes for torques from 65 to 790 Nm. Another five sizes will be added by the middle of 2022 and extend the performance range up to 5,000 Nm.

Conexiom Europe Ltd The recently launched Conexiom Platform provides a holistic solution for manufacturers who want to automate critical business processes like order-to-cash and procure-to-pay. The Conexiom Platform helps manufacturers operate more efficiently by extracting data from unstructured trade documents, such as purchase orders or invoices, and transforming it into structured data in the businesses’ system of record without involving a human. Using the Conexiom Platform, manufacturers can reinvest time spent on manual document processing towards building customer relationships.

Salamander Pumps A trickling tap is a nuisance, but only when one tap or outlet is poor. Installing a pump to improve the water flow throughout the whole house can feel like overkill. To combat this, Salamander has launched Tapboost to offer a solution which delivers between 7 and 12 litres per minute, depending on incoming flow. TapBoost is an incredibly quiet solution to a single outlet with low water flow. With inline design and robust brass fittings, this allows TapBoost to be easily installed in a mains-fed or a gravity-fed system at multiple locations around the house.

New Products and Innovations John Crane

Dual Pressurized Type 8648VRS Non-Pusher Secondary Seal (NPSS) technology replaces traditional O-rings with an elastomeric sealing element. This revolutionary seal design eliminates fretting caused by pump shuttling and increases seal life. NPSS enabled seals were first launched in 2017. John Crane has continued to grow this family of products, completing the range in 2021 with the dual pressurized Type 8648VRS and dry running 8648SC.

Elite 500 – Advanced Power Quality Meter is an advanced power monitoring device that can be used for standalone device monitoring and power quality analysis as a part of the building management system (BMS). It can also process industrial controls and SCADA systems. It offers data logging, the ability to control IOs, and modular communication with multiple protocols for third party system integration. With selectable conventional CT or Rogowski coil inputs, these can be directly connected to the meter without the need for any additional integer.

The John Crane Liquid Fuel/Water Separation Coalescer (LCF) was developed for the effective removal of water from liquid fuel applications, including diesel, kerosene, gasoline, liquid petroleum gas and biodiesel at flow rates up to 250 litres per minute. The new coalescer element is suitable to remove high water content. The High Flow Liquid/Gas Coalescer (HFC) is an innovative new product for refinery, petrochemical and chemical plant applications. The HFC removes aerosol droplets and solids from contaminated process and fuel gas streams and protects critical downstream equipment from fouling and unscheduled shutdowns. End users will benefit from reduced maintenance costs of the downstream processing units (e.g., furnaces, dryer beds, distillation columns) and increased plant efficiency.

MonitorIT is a web-based integrated software solution (desktop & mobile app) that enables the real-time monitoring and long term analysis of pumping systems and networks that are monitored using our Censeo product range. Designed as the visual output of the pump efficiency data being monitored by the Censeo product range, MonitorIT is a powerful tool that supports both local monitoring of pump assets as well as remote, centralised monitoring allowing users to monitor the efficiency, reliability and performance of the pumping network(s) against their own KPIs.

UKCA Countdown – is your business ready for the Kick-off? harmonised standards), or the latest edition in the case of published standards that are yet to be designated. If products have been assessed to older standards, a gap assessment is required to ensure compliance with the latest technical requirements.

UKCA Countdown – is your business ready for the Kick-off? By: Stelios Roumbedakis of Eurofins E&E CML Ltd

4. If your product is classed as Category 1 Equipment, a third party assessment is required.. Contact a UK Approved Body. Details can be found in UK Market Conformity Assessment Bodies – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

As a result of the UK’s departure from the EU, the conformity marking applied to products being placed in the UK market has changed. The new marking regime for the UK market is the UKCA mark, it stands for UK Conformity Assessed, and it is the Conformity Assessment product marking used for goods being placed on the market in Great Britain. It covers most goods which previously required the CE marking, and like CE marking, it demonstrates that products conform with the regulatory requirements of Great Britain.

5. Ensure that your supply chain complies with the regulatory requirements that apply and/or affect compliance of your product. 6. For self-declared products ensure that your QA system complies with the regulatory requirements set out in UK law for your product. 7. If your product requires third-party certification, ensure you obtain a UK QAN issued by a UK Approved Body.

The UKCA marking became part of UK law on exit day, 31st of January 2020. On 1st January 2021, the UKCA marking came into effect, necessitating certain goods that are placed in Great Britain to comply with the new UK regulations; market stakeholders were granted a one year transitional period to fully implement the new regulations, the use of the UKCA being mandatory from 1st January 2022. Amid the implementation of the new marking, on 24th August 2021, the UK government extended the transition period by one year, and the deadline for UKCA marking of products was changed to 1st January 2023. To date, manufacturers have the option to attach the UKCA marking on a label affixed to the product or on an accompanying document; from 1st January 2023, CE Marking will no longer be accepted on most new products placed on the market in Great Britain, and the UKCA marking must be affixed directly to the product.

8. Draft up a UK Declaration of Conformity. The content of the UK Declaration of Conformity may vary depending on the product and any specific requirements of the applicable regulatory scheme(s), however, the key aspects of the content (except as relates to regulatory references) are largely the same to those of an EU Declaration of Conformity. Note that the UK Declaration of Conformity must be available to enforcing authorities on request. 9. Prepare your UKCA product labels (with the UKCA Mark); once the conformity assessment procedure is completed successfully, apply the UKCA Mark/label to your products. 10. Update your product literature; the new UK legislation requires that the UKCA marking must be applied to supporting literature. Technical File Documentation Requirements The requirements of the UK legislation UKSI 2016:1107 (as amended) as regards to the constituent documents of the technical file are identical to those of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU. A Technical File is essentially a compendium of technical documents that include the design specification of a product (or products) along with technical drawings, and the results of the conformity assessments that were conducted.

For pumps, mechanical seals and ancillary products intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres the conformity assessment routes of the UK regulatory scheme (UKEX) are currently the same as those in the EU regulations. Furthermore, the essential health and safety requirements of Directive UKSI 2016:1107 (as amended) – Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2016 – generally mirror those of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU.

Whether a product is self-declared by the manufacturer or certified by a UK Approved Body, the technical requirements as regards to the constituent documents of the Technical File are identical, and in both cases the technical file shall be prepared by the party that places the product in the market, most commonly the manufacturer.

So, what actions do manufacturers need to take?

A technical file shall contain the following:

1. The rules for affixing the UKCA marking are generally the same as those for CE marking, however, check the regulatory requirements set out in UK law for your product. The steps as well as the documentation required to demonstrate compliance with the new UK regulations depend on the specific legislation that applies to your product and the associated requirements for the economic operator.

Documentation Requirements

2. Technical Files for self-declared products in accordance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU will no longer be recognised for accessing the UK market after 1st of January 2023. Therefore, you need to prepare a technical file in accordance with the UK legislation UKSI 2016:1107 (as amended) (see below for more information on the technical file); if the product is classed as Equipment Category 2, the technical file shall be submitted to a UK Approved Body for storage. If the product is classed as Equipment Category 3, the technical file shall be stored internally.

The benefits of sub-contracting your dynamic balancing requirements products or services. Where the provision of such products or services is key to your business operation and offering, then the ROI case may be stronger to build up this capability inhouse. For those scenarios where this is not the case, then sub-contracting is by far a more efficient and risk adverse option.

The benefits of sub-contracting your dynamic balancing requirements By: Rob Jeffery of CEMB Hofmann UK Ltd If you decide to undertake dynamic balancing in-house, then you’ll need to identify which machines and equipment are critical to you and then ensure you have the skills to operate and manage the process. For some companies, having the ability to dynamically balance in-house is not an option due to lack of skills or unavailability of the right equipment. For others, having in-house capability is a prerequisite, although there may be occasions where project size, capacity issues and skill gaps may require the outsourcing of services to a third party. Whatever your situation, outsourcing your dynamic balancing requirements is not a new idea, so let’s take a look at some of the benefits. Specialist support & knowledge Being able to utilise the services of a specialist contractor could mean the difference between being able to take on a project or not. Using a specialist sub-contractor means investing in specialist expertise and knowledge, allowing you to utilise their vast experience to your advantage. And being able to engage with a third party swiftly and confidently could be key to your growth and credibility.

Increased productivity Outsourcing of work that is not particularly key to your operation will enable you to free up the time of your in-house team so they can concentrate on what they do best. And by utilising expertise for a particular job will mean that is gets done more efficiently. There is no doubt that sub-contracting can bring a whole host of benefits to your business and help you to flourish and grow. We have long understood the benefits of offering such a service and many of our customers do take advantage of it, which is why our Sub-Contract Balancing Service is a vital part of our offering in the UK and Ireland. But we are aware that everyone’s situation and requirements are different. So we recommend evaluating your situation carefully and discussing your unique circumstances with a subcontracting partner, as it may open up new opportunities and avenues to you. ■ For more information, Email: rob@cembhofman.co.uk Phone: +44 (0) 161 872 3122

Capability & capacity gaps You may not have the right skills for a particular job and where these are only required on an ad hoc basis, then outsourcing to a third party will be more cost effective, rather than building this capability in-house. There may also be occasions where you are already operating at maximum capacity, so being able to access additional capacity, often at short notice, could mean the difference between taking on a project or not and even keeping your customers happy. And you could also be awaiting delivery of your balancing machine and sub-contracting your requirements could fill this capability gap.

Ensuring active and consistent dosing of chemicals in wastewater treatments through innovative pump technology with high molecular weights are used to bind together these positively charged neutralized particles into large aggregations (also known as flocs), to increase the water clarification.

Ensuring active and consistent dosing of chemicals in wastewater treatments through innovative pump technology

Importance of Controlled Dosing Choosing the right chemical for dosing depends upon the effluent types & design of the wastewater treatment plant. More importantly, the operator should know where to add chemicals in wastewater treatment and in which quantity, and at what time. As overdosing of chemicals will increase the will lead to higher wastewater treatment costs and the presence of high value of chemical agents in the outflow to the sewer, which will surpass the regulatory limits. Similarly, underdoing will reduce the efficiency of wastewater treatment.

By: David Bent of Roto Pumps Ltd Freshwater share is just merely 3% of total water available on our planet earth. With the rising population, the demand for freshwater is also rising. Due to this, we have to conserve water as well as reuse the freshwater by treating it through wastewater treatment plants. When the wastewater reaches the

Selection of Pumping Technology After carefully deciding the right amount of chemical dosing, the system operators should choose the accurate pumping system to ensure minimalistic deviation (+/- 1%) in flow like the Roto RJ Series Dosing Pump. After ensuring flow, the components of the pumping system should be able to withstand the dosing chemicals. Most importantly, selecting the right service partner will reduce the overall maintenance costs & greatly minimize the downtime. ■ For more information, Email: davebent@rotopumps.co.uk Phone: +44 (0) 161 477 5511

treatment plant, it is carrying a lot of impurities & foreign material like phosphates which make the water unusable for drinking & cleaning. In such scenarios, we use chemical dosing to mitigate these challenges.

The BPMA can help you achieve the desired result

In Chemical Dosing, we treat the wastewater with accurate chemical dosing agents i.e. pH neutralizers, anti-foaming agents, coagulants, and flocculants to remove high level of chemicals present in it. Ideally, Wastewater effluent flowing into the sewer should have a pH value of 7 i.e. it should not be too acidic or too basic. This will help to prevent the undesirable chemical reaction when effluent mixes with wastewater. pH neutralization is very important, if it goes directly into the river, it may harm marine life & disturb the ecosystem. Most Industrial units use various types of basic & acidic chemicals in their process, which are then flushed into the drain. It is difficult to maintain the pH value. So, to neutralize it, pH adjustment is done by Industries by controlled dosing of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to ensure the pH value of effluent outflow to the sewer is under state guidelines.

BPMA Job Seeker Service Attention – Are you currently seeking a career within the pump industry? BPMA has launched a new service for talented individuals seeking a career in the pump industry. Our members have interesting positions to fulfil within their company structures.

Foaming is the formation of air bubbles within the wastewater which causes increased mechanical wear on pumps and blocks sieves & filters causing blockage of drainage, thus reducing the efficiency of wastewater treatment. The foam also gets deposited on storage tanks and eventually leading to increase maintenance costs. To nullify the effect of foaming, controlled dosing of anti-foaming chemical agents with low viscosity are used. These anti-foaming agents cause the air bubbles to rupture and breakdown the foam formation. Choosing the right antifoaming agents & correct dosing will greatly reduce the maintenance costs & chemical consumption.

Simply forward your CV to s.smith@bpma.org.uk and we will do the rest. A profile and details of the career you are looking for will be posted on our website free of charge for a maximum of three months. No personal details will appear, only a reference number. We will also include your profile on our weekly Newslink bulletin which is circulated to key personnel at member companies.

Lastly, the combination of flocculants & coagulants are used in optimal combination to remove the suspended solids & clarify water. Positively charges coagulants have a low molecular weight which neutralizes the charge of suspended solids. Coagulants also offset the repulsive effect that stops the negative charges particles to aggregate. After this, Flocculants

Operating under pressure

Operating under pressure By: Linda Dingley of Grundfos Pumps Ltd A lack of water pressure has the ability to affect all of us. There are many instances of this in everyday life, in our homes; our workplaces; as well as in a diverse range of public areas such as hospitals, sporting venues, hotels. There are many other instances where an inconsistency of supply can also impact upon, for example the process industry and many industrial applications, in addition to the water utility arena, where large and consistent volumes of water are a prerequisite.

Multi-E booster with pumps

Ready when you are?

booster system or set, that will increase the pressure in a system to a certain point independent of flow and inlet pressure.

A variety of reasons are behind a lack of pressure and these have been exacerbated in recent years by a number of evolving factors. These include the advent of taller building structures, which today are increasingly mixed use; more condensed living in our towns and cities; inconsistent site pressure, a lack of investment in the infrastructure and reduced mains pressure, all of which are contributing to our turning to boosting to give us the consistent water pressure we need.

Additionally, pressure-boosting systems are available in various configurations, each of which offers different advantages and characteristics such as comfort level, initial investment cost, running costs, flexibility and supply assurance. The number of options and possible configurations is complex and each project should be considered individually to ensure that the solution is bespoke, to meet that particular demand.

With boosting systems now central in so many different kinds of application including water supply, irrigation systems, water treatment systems, packaged fire sets and units that deliver to a range of hugely diverse industrial applications. This is in addition to fulfilling their more traditional role of being a staple within the building services world.

Building up intelligence Other factors also need to be taken into consideration such as BIM (Building Information Modelling). This is a valuable tool as it allows building services specialists to manage every step of a building’s life cycle as it provides real-life simulation of all tasks related to the design, construction, commissioning and operation. The rationale behind this modelling is to make the entire construction process more effective and efficient across functional and organisational borders.

Today, there is a huge reliance upon packaged pump sets to deliver sufficient water to meet the demand – regardless of the application. However to ensure that the booster sets not only meet the need, but do so in the most energy efficient manner possible, it really pays to get the advice of a pumping solutions expert, who will be able to help and advice. Engineering to the rescue Pump manufacturers have been working for many years to develop a range of engineered solutions that will overcome these problems and today there are is a wide variety of boosting products that are available to the market. The sophistication of these pump booster sets has also increased and this will mean that people who are outside the industry will need to take advice from a company who understands about water boosting and who knows how to go about achieving the best pressure boosting solutions, especially when you are talking about non-domestic applications. So what sort of options are now available? Well one of the latest products to arrive on the domestic market is really breaking new ground. These WRAS approved units provide a compact, fully integrated water booster pump that will provide the perfect water pressure to up to 8 water outlets – even with multiple taps and showers running at the same time. These compact sets combine the pump, motor, tank, sensor, drive and non-return valve in one package. Add to this intelligent pump control, which sees the automatically adjust its performance to meet both inlet pressure and water consumption demands.

Test report for booster set With so many factors to consider, it is vital that regardless of your demand, you involve experts who have the knowledge, skill sets and product portfolio to deliver the solution that is the right one for the specific project. Modern demands continue to dictate that booster systems will not only continue to be an integral part of our lives, but a prerequisite so that they will deliver the water pressure we need, when we need it. When specified correctly we can rely on these pressure boosting units to deliver a reliable, efficient and adaptable solution to meet the demands placed upon them to continue to meet both today’s needs and tomorrow’s expectations. ■

Ensuring that the required pressure is available for larger applications is a much more complicated affair. For example getting sufficient pressurised water to the top floor of The Shard is a very different proposition to making sure there is sufficient water to flush all 2,618 toilets at Wembley stadium at half time during a match.

A guide to the pump affinity laws and their application in selecting centrifugal pumps changes in proportion to the square of the change in shaft speed or impeller diameter. In other words, if shaft speed increases by 10% then pressure at the same flow will increase by 21% (1.102). This law is expressed with the following formula:

A guide to the pump affinity laws and their application in selecting centrifugal pumps By: Tony Dashwood of Crest Pumps Ltd

H1/H2 = (N1/N2)2 or (D1/D2)2 Where H is equal to head, N is equal to shaft speed, and D is equal to impeller diameter.

What are the Affinity Laws? The pump affinity laws are a set of formulas that help predict flow, head, power absorbed at different shaft speeds. If you know the shape of a pump performance curve at a certain speed or with a certain impeller diameter, you can use the affinity laws to predict the performance of the same pump at a different speed or with a different diameter impeller with a high degree of accuracy.

Law 3: Power is Proportional to the Cube of Shaft Speed or Impeller Diameter As shaft speed or impeller diameter changes, power changes in proportion to the cube of the change in shaft speed or impeller diameter. In other words, if shaft speed increases by 10% then pressure at the same flow will increase by 33.1% (1.103). This law is expressed with the following formula:

There are three affinity laws:

P1/P2 = (N1/N2)3 or (D1/D2)3

Law 1: Flow is Proportional to Shaft Speed or Impeller Diameter

Where P is equal to power, N is equal to shaft speed, and D is equal to impeller diameter.

As shaft speed or impeller diameter changes, flow changes by the same proportional amount. In other words, if shaft speed increases by 10% then flow at the same head will also increase by 10%. This law is expressed with the following formula:

Use of the Affinity Laws The affinity laws will produce highly accurate results when predicting the impact of changes in speed. However, as the diameter of an impeller changes the efficiency of the impeller will also change, therefore, application of the affinity laws to calculate the impact on pump performance as a result a change in impeller diameter are helpful but not always highly accurate. ■

Better control with artificial intelligence – Digitalised maintenance drives sustainability in manufacturing monitor the operational status of several industrial assets. A key factor, here, is improving the communication between the software and the sensors to reduce time between the detection of a failure and applying maintenance. It is also possible to establish predictive maintenance plans.

Better control with artificial intelligence – Digitalised maintenance drives sustainability in manufacturing By: Trenton Roncato Juraszek of WEG “The only way to predict the future,” said the philosopher Eric Hoffer, “is to have power to shape the future.” This philosophy can apply to industrial settings, as Industry 4.0 and artificial intelligence (AI) open new possibilities for plant maintenance. Here, Trenton Roncato Juraszek, application engineer at the motors and drives specialist WEG, looks at how new ways AI can be used in industrial settings.

Software can centralise all the information a manager would like to know and integrate it into manufacturing execution systems (MESs)

We are seeing a rapid hard tech emergence. Suppliers of motors and drives that previously focussed only on hard technologies, like electric motors, soft starters and other equipment, are moving into developing software. This accompanies a general rise in patent applications for AI, machine learning (ML) and Internet of Things (IoT) platforms in recent decades — averaging five patents-per-year in the 1990s, which rose to 107 per-year between 2010-2019.

Through data collection and processing, software generates valuable real-time insights to share with plant managers and engineers, ultimately leading to improved asset management. Data processing is managed both on edge and in the cloud. This allows for fast reactions at the device level, while also enabling comprehensive data analysis in the cloud. In addition, specialist modules with AI can give automated fault diagnosis based on historic reports and trends.

This emergence is significant. Rather than subcontracting these developments to IT companies, software to keep motors working efficiently can instead be developed and programmed by engineers that can deal with both worlds, hardware and software. This allows the monitoring of hard technologies on digital platforms to ensure better performance and maintenance.

That includes 3D vibrational analyse that estimates the energy consumption and load a motor is carrying, so efficiency is always a foremost concern. It is possible to analyse the forecasted deterioration of equipment and advise on predictive maintenance requirements. This can significantly reduce unplanned downtime and costs.

Cost of ownership Successful industrial operations relate directly to a plant’s maintenance strategy; whether it’s corrective, preventive or predictive. Failure to have a proper maintenance strategy can impact the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the motor, thus impacting the facility’s bottom line.

Great payback A manufacturer in the petrochemical segment had been experiencing at least one motor failure per month, or sometimes more than one a month. The digital solution entailed gathering data collected from sensors attached to the plant’s motor equipment. To make the most of this information, the data is presented in an intuitive way through indicators, graphics and a history of measured data to allow for easy-to-understand analysis. After applying its digital suite, the customer can now go for six months without any failure. There was also a great payback, as the customer achieved their return on investment (ROI) within just half a year. In these instances, flexible firmware allowed software and sensors to be applied to the motors. Going forward, these AI technologies can be applied not only to motor scans, but all customers’ asset needs around the world. Industries such as mining, sugar and ethanol, food and beverage, infrastructure, electric mobility, marine, steel, water, pulp and paper, oil and gas, and even farming and agriculture can benefit.

Artificial intelligence and machining learning are changing how industry performs maintenance TCO may suffer due to the company wasting time and money by monitoring assets manually and applying reactive corrective maintenance, instead of predictive maintenances with online monitoring. Indeed, companies can reduce their capacity of new investments by spending too much money on problem corrections. Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) may also be reduced.

This technique can also be used to directly monitor other electric-driven equipment such as pumps, compressors, fans and gearboxes. Let’s suppose a pump company wishes to improve its own OEE through AI. There will be the capability to create a “pump specialist” monitoring platform, with software scalability and robustness to enter into any industrial plant.

AI and ML are now changing the way industry performs maintenance. These Industry 4.0 technologies are not only used in logistics and control or supply chain management, they can also support statistics and analytics — specifically, numerical pattern detection through algorithms that greatly benefit OEE. But, how do these software platforms work and benefit asset management?

In effect, flexible software will be key to centralising all the information a manager would like to know and integrate it into manufacturing execution systems (MESs). This can ensure that, to predict the future, manufacturers have the power to shape the future. ■

A guide to centrifugal impeller types and their uses pump suction to guide the liquid into the impeller eye. This will be a close tolerance and may even have a wear plate to prevent as little liquid as possible to escape from the impeller eye. Generally speaking, pumps with closed impellers require a lower NPSH.

A guide to centrifugal impeller types and their uses By: Tony Dashwood of Crest Pumps Ltd Centrifugal pump impellers come in many shapes and sizes, each having their own uses and advantages. There are two aspects of the impeller, regardless of the type, that are worth remembering:

Semi-Open Impeller Semi-Open impellers, as the name suggests, only have a back shroud for stability and strength, they may be regarded as the middle ground in terms of efficiency and NPSH requirement but are very useful when handling liquids with an amount of solids or of a slightly higher viscosity.

Impeller Diameter: The diameter of a centrifugal impeller relates directly to the head that the pump can produce. The greater the diameter then the greater the velocity of the liquid as it leaves the impeller and the higher the head produced. Depth of Vanes: It logically follows that a shallow depth vane will produce less flow than an impeller with a deeper vane. Consider the volume of an impeller that is 20 cm in diameter with 1 cm deep vanes. The volume of the impeller (pi x r2 x h) is 314 cm2 less the volume of the impeller vanes (say 10%) = approx. 280 cm2 (0.28 l) per revolution, if you double the vane depth to 2 cm then the volume doubles to 560 cm2 (0.56 l) per revolution. Of course, this assume the pump is 100% efficient which it will never be because of internal fluid turbulence and slippage across the impeller and casing but it illustrates how the depth of the vane will be proportionally representative to the flow it can produce.

Open Impeller Distinguishable by the lack of a back shroud (or minimal in some cases) this is the weakest form of impeller in terms of mechanical strength but performs best in solids handling applications. Open impellers are the least efficient impeller form requiring more NPSH when employed in a pump. Typically used in smaller inexpensive efficiency is less important due to the low power required by the pump.

Closed Impeller A closed impeller is the most efficient form and is ideal for handling clean liquids with low viscosity. Consisting of two plates (known as shrouds) either side of the impeller vanes and a boss extending from the front shroud into the

Document Automation Enables Pump Manufacturers to Shield Customers from Supply Chain Disruption premium-level service, it’s no wonder that just 1-3 delays or disruptions cause a churn rate of 58%.

How Document Automation Enables Pump Manufacturers to Shield Customers from Supply Chain Disruption

Clearly, if a negative customer experience is to be avoided, pump manufacturers need to stay aware of disruptions. The problem is that the changing status of an order is often invisible, locked away in documents such as Order Acknowledgements or ASNs. This means the onus is on you to painstakingly tally those documents against the original purchase order, to ensure you’re receiving the goods you ordered, and being billed correctly for them.

By: Maisie Richardson of Conexiom Europe Ltd Supply chain disruptions are as painful as they are common these days. Unfortunately, this new volatility has only decreased your customers’ patience for delayed or incomplete orders. Customer experience is a key differentiator in competitive markets like the British pump industry where you simply cannot afford to

But given the state of global supply chains, you understandably may not have the time or resources to prioritise reconciliation of these documents. With that said, fast processing of documents gives your procurement team valuable visibility, and that allows them to proactively address issues – before those issues affect your end customer experience. Manually processing vendor documents takes time away from your procurement team, time which could be better spent on strategic, human-centric activities, such as sourcing new vendors. But data discrepancies can lead to a domino effect, one which causes an operational mess and damages your customer trust. So, with manual processing a costly tap on your time resources, it’s an issue that needs addressing. At the core of this situation, then, is the data locked in trade documents. Snappy reconciliation of that data allows you to shield customers from supply chain disruption. Automation Repurposes Time A further outcome of automation is to free your employees from tedious manual data input tasks, which humans are prone to making mistakes in. This means your workforce can be realigned to high-value activities, leading to significant improvements in employees’ productivity and job satisfaction.

Automation should enable manufacturers to reallocate time towards enhancing the customer experience deliver poor service. The COVID-19 global pandemic may be the foremost culprit of major supply chain disruption, but it’s hardly alone. Geopolitical events, pressure to adopt sustainable practices, industry consolidation, reliance on legacy IT systems, natural disasters and the rising cost of materials also threaten the resilience of your supply chain.

Automation Gives Your Back-Office Team Insight & Improved Capacity Within the scope of your own operations, your admin team must stay across a considerable amount of information. Document automation ensures that your team stays aware of the supply chain, giving them a valuable and practical knowledge base. This will give them the ability to better manage your operations.

Recently, Pump & Systems reported on the “current turmoil”* in the pump manufacturing supply chain, highlighting the reduced activity of shipping containers and record low levels of stock. Conditions like these reduce your margin for error and require a new level of agility to ensure you can meet customer expectations against a backdrop of long-term uncertainty.

Increased insight and ability work in tandem to help minimise the cost of doing business, and proactively address any discrepancies; benefits which will be directly felt by your customers.

Developing relationships with customers and proactively solving their problems will help you keep clients through this ongoing disruption, but that requires more time than you likely have with a shrinking workforce. Automation should enable manufacturers to reallocate time spent on manual and repetitive administrative work towards enhancing the customer experience.

More Time to Solve Problems Before They Affect Your Customers Supply chain disruption is a growing concern and something that requires attention from pump manufacturers. The best way to avoid issues with the supply chain is to increase supply chain visibility throughout your operations, and this can be done with trade document automation. Automating your document processing yields the clarity you need to address supply chain disruptions before the impact is felt by your customers. ■

The Supply Chain Story It’s likely that pump manufacturers will continue to face stock shortages for the near future. Unfortunately, most shortages aren’t apparent until a shipment arrives at the warehouse with half of the expected materials missing.

Net Zero: Supply chain nightmare or opportunity?

Net Zero: Supply chain nightmare or opportunity? By: Chris Rea of AES Engineering Ltd An increasing number of companies are asking how they can chart a path to Net Zero. However, managing the supply chain, which is arguably the most important part of the Net Zero equation, as well as the most difficult is often neglected. Some companies appear to have decided that supply chain issues are a nightmare, but even if they cannot eliminate the impact entirely, public and regulatory pressure is growing, and the moral right for some businesses to exist at all may eventually come into question.

A supplier that is truly Net Zero will be able to market that in future

While the BPMA membership is unlikely to fall into that ‘doomsday’ category, it is possible that some customers, in some industries, may be forced to justify themselves, and the first thing they will look at is their suppliers. Failure to tackle supply chain emissions is leading to scepticism in the media, fuelled by environmental activists, about the sincerity of the environmental efforts being made by industry generally, and has prompted allegations of ‘green washing’.

There is rising public concern about the future of the planet and this is also leading down the path of increasing regulation. Even though the impact of Covid and the crisis in Ukraine is fuelling a push-back against Net Zero, these issues will be found to be short-term when compared with the climate crisis. The important business message is that a supplier that is truly Net Zero (on Scopes 1, 2 and 3) will be able to market that in future, and those that don’t get on the Net Zero track are playing with fire.

When companies engage with Net Zero (if they do so at all), they usually call a halt when they have calculated their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, covering direct activities in company-owned facilities or vehicles and indirect emissions from electricity, steam, heating and cooling. They cut energy use or buy ‘green’ energy, and then purchase carbon offsets, which are arguably underpriced at present but are likely to become very expensive in the future.

In the 1950s and 1960s, businesses were all about naked capitalism and making profit. In the 21st century we learned to embrace all ‘stakeholders’ – that is employees, customers, suppliers and communities. Company investment policies should send the message that our most important stakeholder is the planet.

The problem is that these calculations omit the impact of emissions in the supply and value chain of the business even though Scope 3 emissions in the supply chain can be 20 times (or more) greater for certain companies. It is, therefore, surprising that Net Zero calculations that are certified usually stop at Scope 1 and Scope 2. There appears to be no standard and apparently no market for Scope 3 calculations, possibly because companies are afraid they won’t be able to claim Net Zero if they are entirely honest.

For more information, Email: enquiries@aessel.info. Phone: +44 (0) 01709 369 966

This is also concerning because businesses whose activities have a net beneficial impact on the environment ought to be able to have this certified also. There needs to be a balance sheet of CO2e used in the supply chain and CO2e saved as a result of water saved, carbon saved (and often money saved) by a customer who has a more reliable and sustainable operation as a result of the efforts of their supplier.

Manufacturers of Reciprocating Pumps

To take the example of electric vehicles, parts and raw materials all have a ‘carbon cost’ unless the suppliers are themselves Net Zero. On the other hand, customers for electric vehicles use less carbon than those fuelled by internal combustion engines. Scope 3 calculations look at the balance between supplier emissions and the customer’s carbon savings.

• Manufactured to API 674

This means that if a supplier is Net Zero, or at least successful in controlling their emissions, this will be a huge competitive advantage in the future.

• Spares Parts Supply

• Steam Driven Pumps • Triplex Plunger Pumps • Duplex Piston Pumps

Companies should insist that their packaging supplier is Net Zero, and engineering firms should push metal suppliers to offer more options for carbon-friendly tube to ensure minimal material removal. If they are buying high value machine tools from Japanese manufacturers, they should demand that they supply equipment designed to work directly with the UK 3phase voltage – avoiding the need for energy-wasting transformers. The message seems to be getting through on the voltage question, but not so much on reducing the tendency to encourage wasteful removal of metal with all the added wear on CNC lathes and use of energy. Packaging we can control more easily so there is little excuse for failing to take action.

Using intelligent pumps to measure operational performance New vs. Old

Using intelligent pumps to measure operational performance

Today's newly constructed buildings embrace the latest energy-efficient construction techniques, equipment technology, M&E Systems and controls. Intelligent Buildings are managed and automated by multiple sensors through plant, equipment and occupied spaces. Connecting to a stateof-the-art building management system (BMS), connectivity is achieved throughout the building between these sensors and systems, controlling lighting, heating, cooling, and ventilation. Big data from these systems, such as pumps, is also monitored and performance managed and collectively helps to reduce operational carbon emissions.

By: David Williamson of Wilo UK Back in October 2021, the world met for the COP26 summit. Recognising the momentous events of COP21 back in 2015, where every country agreed to limit global warming to 2 degrees and aim for 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels (The Paris Agreement), significant commitments were made to reduce the use of fossil fuels.

In 2050, approximately 8 out of 10 buildings in use will be from pre-2022 building stock. So what about older buildings with legacy systems and basic BMS or no BMS with plant, equipment and systems operating autonomously?

With an ever-changing climate and extreme weather conditions, including excessive rainfall and flooding in European countries, Australian bushfires and some of the worst weather in decades for the UK, it has never been more evident that urgent change is needed.

Upgrade to save energy and carbon Sensors are a key part of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, and play a crucial role in telling you how the system is performing.

Changing our approach to energy usage and cutting carbon emissions is essential. The UK aims to lead the ambitions of COP26 through the Net Zero Strategy. Energy security forms part of this strategy, making better use of the energy we have available, increasing the efficiency of buildings, homes, industry and transport.

With an intelligent pump, adjustments can be made to contribute to energy and carbon savings. The ability to measure, monitor and manage the energy consumption of key plant in buildings is vital to help control costs, especially when the energy market is currently so volatile.

The construction industry has a big part to play in this change and in supporting energy security. Approximately 33% of the world's population live in cities and as urbanisation accelerates, this will be in the region of 70% by 2050.

Plus, these savings can be seen in real time through daily, weekly or monthly reports. Insight into system performance

Embodied Carbon vs Operational Carbon

Smart pumps allow you to make the best use of your system. You can remotely monitor and adjust the flow and head of the pump, as well as view the system temperature. This insight could reveal a pump is working fine but that there might be an issue with the boiler.

Reducing carbon emissions by focusing on Net Zero is an obvious route to protect the environment. In construction, M&E contractors are increasingly involved in conversations around embodied carbon. Embodied carbon considers all the carbon emitted in the manufacturing process of materials, including estimates from the energy used in the production and transportation of raw materials and the manufacturing processes. It also considers emissions from the disposal of products at the end of life.

Calculate performance By plotting the performance of a variable speed pump against the boiler or chiller that it’s connected to, you can record their base load and peak load. So, if you find the chiller only gets up to 50% of its output, you could switch to a smaller one.

Operational carbon is the carbon emitted while a building is 'in-use', which may also include the use, control and maintenance of the infrastructure. Globally, operational carbon emissions are almost three times that of embodied carbon. In the UK, buildings are responsible for approximately 23% of all emissions.

Preventative maintenance Remote monitoring gives you advance warning of potential problems, so these issues can be identified and dealt with before they happen. You’ll know the fault code and issue before you go on-site, which means you can carry out repairs remotely or apply the right resources to a faulty product. Early warnings allow you to keep track of equipment installed, so spare parts can be easily identified and ordered. System upgrades are much more straightforward because prior knowledge of the equipment and its performance are logged and understood. Proactive messaging Text messages or emails will alert you to faults, without you having to log into the system. Remote access to the pump also reduces unnecessary travel to site to find faults, contributing further to carbon and cost savings. Instant access to commissioning records The process for ordering spare parts is simple because you can instantly see:

The causes and effects of cavitation in centrifugal pumps Discharge Cavitation

The causes and effects of cavitation in centrifugal pumps

Can occur with very high discharge pressures or when the pump operates at less than 10% of its best efficiency point which causes more recirculation within the pump and high fluid velocity at the outer edge of the impeller. The obvious sign of discharge cavitation is pitting of the impeller at the outer edges. Causes of discharge cavitation include:

By: Tony Dashwood of Crest Pumps Ltd What is cavitation in centrifugal pumps? Definition Cavitation occurs in centrifugal pumps when the Nett Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHa) is lower than the Nett Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHr) causing the formation and accumulation of bubbles around the impeller eye that then collapse causing a series of implosions and significant damage to both the impeller and the casing. If your pump sounds as though it is pumping marbles, then you probably have a cavitation problem (or marbles have got into your system). Other problems associated with cavitation are excessive vibration that will lead to premature failure of seals and bearings, higher power consumption and decreased flow and pressure.

• • •

Pump running too far to the left of its curve Blocked discharge pipe or filters Poor pipework design

How does cavitation occur If we take water as an example, it vaporises at atmospheric pressure at 100 degrees C. But the internal design of a pump means that fluids flow at high velocities and the pressure decreases (see Bernoulli’s Law), consequently the liquid will vaporise at a much lower temperature.

How To Prevent Pump Cavitation Firstly, you need to identify the cause of the pressure drop. In most cases the problem can be solved by:

There are two types of cavitation:

•

Suction Cavitation

• • •

Occurs when a pump is under low pressure or high vacuum conditions. Signs of suction cavitation will be around the eye of the impeller that will have multiple pitting, signs of severe cavitation will make the impeller resemble a sponge. Possible causes of suction cavitation include: •

Simplifying the suction pipework removing as many bends and valves as possible Moving the pump closer to the fluid source Clean pipework and remove any blockage Increasing the diameter of the suction pipework so reducing the inlet velocity

Cavitation is a common problem but damage to impellers can be largely avoided with correct pump sizing, well designed pipework and routine maintenance of filters and strainers. ■

Pump running too far to the right of its curve - Blocked suction pipe or strainer - Bad pipework design including excessively long runs - High inlet fluid velocity - Poor suction conditions

Beyond compliance: the benefits of BPO upgrades

requirements. Another tip is to ensure that bearing frames are fitted with bearing isolators as standard. This offers maximum protection against debris and water ingress.

By: Mike Golds of Celeros Flow Technology

Beyond compliance While the main focus may be continued compliance, a BPO upgrade can provide an opportunity to significantly improve pump performance and extend service life. As part of the process, larger radial and thrust bearings can be substituted (beyond currently installed designs). The L3/D4 shaft stiffness ratio can be improved, resulting in a shaft that has a lower deflection – which in turn means longer seal and bearing life.

The end suction centrifugal pump is the workhorse of the pumping field, from general industrial use to applications in oil and gas, water treatment and power generation. For example, a typical oil refinery has around 1850 pumps installed, of which around 75% will be end suction top discharge overhung (OH) pumps with OH1 or OH2 API classifications.

Alternative cooling configurations are another factor that can provide benefit to the customer. Cooling water, inboard heat sink or outboard cooling fan options can be employed, depending on the operating temperature of the pump. Similarly, alternative lubrication configurations can be introduced: such as oil ring, oil mist, oil flinger or oiling pin. Material upgrades or hydraulic rerates can also be performed at the same time, improving the total cost of ownership (TCO) for the equipment operator. Conclusion It is not always desirable or practical to replace a less efficient pump with a new model in order to meet regulations. A BPO upgrade offers a viable alternative, assuring compliance with the latest API610 and API682 standards. Relatively simple to achieve, a BPO upgrade can also help operators to achieve low or zero emissions and support extended mechanical seal and bearing life. This in turn leads to improved Mean Time Between Failures, extending uptime and driving down costs.

Section of Union 4x6x14 HHS Pump, showing the new bearing assembly in blue. The fact that these pumps continue to perform well over long periods is testament to the quality inherent in the pump manufacturing sector. However, the standards relating to pumping assets change with time. Key drivers include government legislation, environmental concerns and an increasing desire for long-term reliability.

Centrifugal pumps will always have an essential function to perform in many different industrial applications. For endusers, compliance is no longer the only consideration in assessing pump performance: improving energy efficiency, minimising environmental impacts and lowering total cost of ownership are equally important. ■

API610 is widely recognised as the global engineering standard for pumps and API682 is the global standard for mechanical seals. The majority of OH pumps manufactured and installed pre API610 8th edition need upgrading to decrease their emissions (particularly fugitive emissions) and bring them into line with the latest regulations.

Using intelligent pumps to measure performance continued from page 40

BPO upgrades Back Pull-Out (BPO) upgrades provide an answer. This process involves retention of the existing pump volute casing and impeller, while the pump end cover, shaft, wear rings, bearing assembly and mechanical seal are replaced.

Compare multiple sites With remote energy monitoring, you can compare the pumps in a building to other similar sites. For example, a large supermarket chain – which will typically have a consistent footprint across multiple sites – can compare pump performance across their property portfolio and use this information to compare the revenue per square metre across its sites.

The BPO assembly is a direct drop-in replacement, with no skid or piping modifications being required. Usually, there is no need to move the driver either. Using standardised parts wherever possible during pump upgrades delivers maximum interchangeability. This is highly beneficial to the customer, as it reduces inventory

Connectivity for a green future Digitalisation has, and continues to, change the way we live our lives, and the pump industry is helping companies lead the way in becoming greener, more energy efficient, and more connected. The Government’s Net Zero pledge will be at the forefront of many companies’ minds. So, if they can reduce their carbon emissions and energy expenses through remote monitoring this could help them meet their own sustainability objectives. It’s important to keep in mind that pumps use about 10% of the world’s electricity – but around 90% of today’s installed pumps are outdated and inefficient. So, it’s crucial to show just how simple it can be to make worthwhile changes to pump equipment – including in older legacy buildings without a BMS system, where it’s vital to see how the assets in these buildings are performing. ■ For more information, Email: sales.uk@wilo.com Phone: +44 (0) 1283 523000

Bot over years, many sealing arrangements have been developed to eliminate the seal failures. Today, the Universal Joint with proper sealing arrangement are the most sought joints for manufacturing Progressive cavity Pumps.

High Precision and its Repeatability is Vital for Developing Highly Efficient Progressive Cavity Pumps By: David Bent of Roto Pumps Ltd Progressive Cavity Pumps are designed to handle free flowing viscous & abrasive liquids for wide spectrum of industrial applications. These pumps are not standard and are customized as per the type of liquid and its duty parameters. Progressive Cavity Pumps are most sought for applications where the fluid being pumped is viscous or the application requires high suction lifts. These pumps perform efficiently even for shear-sensitive liquids. Also, these pumps provide uniform & non – pulsating flow.

One interesting characteristic of the Cardan joint is that it must operate with a great deal of angularity. It must "flex". This motion is required to have the Bush / needle bearings rotate so they will wear evenly. It becomes a latent advantage and helps to reduce the length of progressive cavity pumps, a common complaint raised by customers. Rotor & Stator

Progressive Cavity Pump Principle

There are several factors which are associated with designing of Rotor & Stator for Progressive Cavity Pumps. Based on the pressure, length of rotor & stator is defined i.e. 1 Stage Pump is ideal for up to 6 Bar pressure, 2- Stage Pump for up to 12 Bar pressure and so on.

Progressive Cavity Pumps works on the principle of positive displacement. The pumping element comprises of a precision machined single external helix metallic rotor, and a double internal helix elastomer stator. Due to the special profile of the rotor and stator set, a sealing line is formed along the axis of the rotor which is maintained at both static and dynamic conditions. As the rotor turns within the stator, these cavities progress from the suction to the discharge end of the pump carrying the fluid.

Stator

Rotors

The next parameter is profile cutting of both rotor and stator which is about optimizing minimum interference between rotor & stator. A smaller change in profile cutting will lead to overflow or underflow of the liquid. Stator Manufacturing is an art more than science, it is about optimized mixing of elastomers to reach the tensile strength, resiliency, harness and reduce shrinkages. Only few manufacturers like Roto Pumps, have perfected the process of developing world class stators based on their years of research and development. Knowhow of using the correct elastomeric stator for a Progressive Cavity Pump is key to delivering high performance, as material of elastomer changes as per the application. This knowledge is acquired by leading manufacturers globally because of their decade long research practices. It will be difficult for a new entrant to have this material knowledge and compete with old manufacturing companies.

Importance of Precision Manufacturing

Conclusion

Cardan Universal Joint, Metallic Rotor & Elastomeric Stator are the main components which define the flow accuracies, wear & tear of internal pump components, pump life cycle and the energy consumption of Progressive Cavity Pumps. If there are some design errors or dimensional errors, it will lead to reduced pump performance and eventually lead to replacing of pump or its spare parts.

Progressive Cavity Pumps are highly customized pumps based on application duty parameters. High precision and industry knowhow is mandatory for successfully designing its key parts like Cardan Universal Joint, Rotor & Stator. With a small error in the design or manufacturing, the pump will not deliver its due performance and life. So, it’s important to design & manufacture these pumps in controlled environment with stringent quality check at multiple levels. ■

In universal joints, there is no separation between axial force and torque transmission. Both act on the universal joint pin due to its better kinetics, compared to the pin joint. This joint can absorb massive amounts of thrust load and torque. Dynamic loading is distributed over large surface areas covered with bush / needle bearings. Even when used in applications requiring several hundred horsepower. It has proven extremely reliable and durable. This design principle has already resulted in considerably longer service lives.

IDEA was originally formed to offer to trade associations a service of collecting and publishing their member information thus promoting themselves and the services they offer. This was done in a variety of formats: • Printed directories • E-Newsletters • Web sites • Electronic catalogues on CD Rom Our aim was always to produce well designed publications which are effective, accurate and excellent value for money. Today, almost all of our work is in printed directories. Over the years, we have worked for organisations as diverse as: • British Footwear Association • Manufacturing Technologies Association • British Materials Handling Federation • National Access & Scaffolding Confederation • British Pump Manufacturers Association • Stone Federation Great Britain • Construction Equipment Association Because of IDEA’s concentration on trade association communication, it is able to offer an effective service which is designed to fulfill the specific requirements of trade associations. IDEA will do everything from the initial conception, obtaining information from member companies, collating it and ensuring that it is presented in the terminology that is common usage within industry. These services are designed to complement those of a trade association; associations may pick what they require to be done and do themselves that which fits within their own organisation. Publications can be financed in a number of different ways and IDEA has considerable experience in such schemes. Above all, IDEA publications are intended to be effective and user friendly, they can be multilingual and are designed with the requirements of the user in mind, not from the basis of using the latest tricks and gimmicks.
