…We’re way
In 2013 the EuP Directive is changing the standalone circulator market in
Europe forever. The 7 out of 10 installers who don’t choose energy-saving
circulator pumps will no longer have a choice. This profoundly affects pump
manufacturers – but not Grundfos, because as far as EuP is concerned:
– We’re not ready… we’re way ahead

3. > 2013 starts today
> What is the EuP Directive?
The so-called “EuP Directive” was passed by the European Parliament and the Council of the
European Union on July 6th, 2005. It establishes a framework of rules and criteria for setting
requirements on the ecodesign of energy-using products (EuPs).
The directive’s goal is to reduce the environmental impact of energy-using products and
s
­ upport sustainable development.
Savings potential for circulators
• Standalone: 13 TWh and 6.2 million tons of CO2

People and city equivalents
• Total residential electricity consumption of 21,500,000 people
• otal residential electricity consumption in Berlin, London, Brussels, Sofia, Paris, Rome,

new ecodesign requirements

4. your business
What does EuP mean for business?
Only the most efficient A-labelled pumps currently in usage conform to the EuP Directive.
The ecodesign requirements for glandless standalone circulators (laid down in Commission
Regulation No 641/2009 of 22 July 2009) will now be a part of the Declaration of Conformity (CE).
Without a CE mark, a product may not be sold within the EU.
The Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) requirement will be EE1≤ 0.27 from 2013, and EE1≤ 0.23 from 2015.
The current best-in-class benchmark for circulators is EE1≤ 0.20. This may become the requirement
when the EuP Directive is reviewed in 2017.

5. the future
How is Grundfos way ahead?
The energy-efficient pump leader
We are already the leader in energy-efficient standalone circulators, we were among the first to
mass-produce A-labelled pumps. Our ALPHA2 and MAGNA circulators are already EuP-ready and
already installed around the globe.
Proven commitment and proven products – with more to come
Unlike other pump manufacturers, no legislation forced us to produce these pumps. We did it out
of our commitment to sustainability and being responsible.
We already have the technology in place, refined and proven over years of development and real
application. We could very reasonably say we already have the technology “perfected” but that is
not how we think at Grundfos – continuous improvement is the basis of our pump design.

alpha2
Easy to install, impossible to beat
The ALPHA2’s exceptional power reduction was achieved using the latest permanent magnet
motor technology.
In fact, thanks to its pressure-controlled operation, the ALPHA2 can run on as little as 5 watts.
The unique AUTOADAPT feature allows the pump to match its performance to the system
requirements.
• Variable and fixed speed operation – one pump for all jobs
• Plug and Pump – no need to open terminal box
• Power Display – shows actual power usage

demand more than one million more have followed it. You can find ALPHA2s contributing
to energy and cost savings in buildings around the world. Talk about being way ahead!

Magna
Efficiency in every feature
Thanks to its unique ensemble of innovative features, MAGNA uses up to 70% less energy than
other standalone circulators of its size. The MAGNA range includes a variety of sizes with models
suitable for domestic and commercial heating or air conditioning applications.
The AUTOADAPT function is unique to Grundfos pumps. It automatically adapts a newly installed
pump’s setting to the optimum duty point at the minimum power consumption.
• Night-setback function – reduces the speed and output in response to drops in
system temperature.
• tainless steel – ensures a longer valve and pump lifespan
S
and minimises corrosion.
• n-slot winded stator – specifically designed to
I
optimise pump efficiency.

9. The EuP directive
fiction vs facts
Ready or not, like it or not, the EuP Directive will soon be fact. But its introduction has become
the subject of a lot of fiction. Here are some of the most common misconceptions regarding 2013.
fiction
facts
X
16
Grundfos currently has no EuP-ready pumps.
Grundfos already has a portfolio of pumps that more than
meet EuP requirements – the first was introduced in 2001.
X
What’s the fuss? EuP is just A-labelling by another name,
nothing really new.
EuP is similar to A-labelling, but much stricter. In fact only the
most efficient A-labelled pumps currently available comply
with EuP. EuP will also be enforced by legislation.
X
EuP doesn’t come in until 2013, so there is no need to think
about it yet.
On the day that EuP comes in, installers will choose the compliant pumps they know about and trust, so action now will
ensure installers choose Grundfos.
X
EuP is just legislative nonsense! You can’t really save energy
just by changing circulators.
Grundfos EuP-ready standalone circulators use up to 80% less
energy than some conventional models and cut off up to 10%
of a household power bill.

Powered by the Impossible 2010
Our drive to set new standards of efficiency and installation ease continues.
We refuse to accept that there are limits to how good a standalone circulator can possibly be.
That is why we say we are Powered by the Impossible.

and products. You can also calculate how much electricity you can potentially save using
Grundfos energy-efficient circulators in various-sized buildings.
