EuP Directive Compliance – Motors

ITT Lowara is pleased to announce that all the products covered by the European Commission Regulation (EC) no. 640/2009 will be available with minimum efficiency level IE2 within the required timeframe.

Early on, Lowara srl adopted the voluntary European CEMEP agreement defining motor classification (EFF1, EFF2 and EFF3). This classification will be substituted by the classification from the EU MEPS (IE1, IE2, IE3) from 16th of June 2011. The two standards are not identical but as a general rule they can be compared as follows.

 

New levels of efficiency:

IE1 (Standard Efficiency), similar to EFF2

IE2 (High Efficiency), similar to EFF1)

IE3 (Premium Efficiency)

 

All data related to this change are found in the below listed documents and new catalogues will be published shortly

The following letter gives more information about the new legislation and its effect on our products
