Energy-related Products Fan
Efficiency Directive
The Energy-related Products (ErP) Directive (2012/27/EU on Energy
Efficiency, 25, October 2012) is the European Commission Directive required
for products sold and exported to the European Union (EU). This directive aims
to protect the environment by increasing energy efficiency in the EU. This
directive, among other things, defines the minimum efficiency for fans in the
range of 0.125…500 kW.
For PowerFlex 700H and 700S drive fan systems, this directive will be
implemented in multiple phases.
Phase 1 - Starts January 1, 2013
New products delivered within the EU (with a power structure manufacture date
of January 1, 2013 and later) will have a DC fan system installed. Phase I includes
PowerFlex 700H and 700S frame 9 and larger drives and PowerFlex 700AFE
systems.
DC fan system kits have been developed to support the repair of damaged units
and to provide retrofit solutions. However, the ErP Directive does not require
drives with existing AC fan systems to be retrofitted.
