Performance of household electrical appliances - Swimming pool pump-units Energy labelling and minimum energy performance standard requirements
Standards Australia
The objective of this Standard is to promote high levels of quality, performance and energy efficiency in swimming pool pump-units.
This Standard specifies the energy information disclosure, energy labelling and MEPS requirements for swimming pool pump-units.
In particular, the Standard specifies -
(a) the calculation of the Star Rating Index value based on the energy factor as defined in Clause 7.4 of Part 1 (AS 5102.1);
(b) the method of calculation for Star Ratings;
(c) the registration of energy efficiency information by product suppliers;
(d formats and printing requirements for energy labels on swimming pool pump-units or their packaging; and
(e) procedures for check testing to determine the validity of registered and labelled information.
(d) This Standard covers all single phase pump-units intended for use in the operation of residential swimming pools and spa pools, and which are capable of a flow rate equal to or greater than 120 L/min. This Standard applies to single-speed, dual-speed, multi-speed and variable speed pump-units with an input power of less than or equal to 2500 W for any of the available speeds.
This Standard covers pump-units for the circulation of water through filters, sanitisation devices, cleaning devices, water heaters (including solar), spa or jet outlets or other features forming part of the pool.
This Standard covers pump-units that form part of a complete new pool installation as well as pump-units intended for sale as replacements for existing pools.
This Standard covers all water-retaining structures designed for human use -
(i) that are capable of holding more than 680 litres of water; and
(ii) that incorporate, or are connected to, equipment that is capable of filtering and heating any water contained in it and injecting air bubbles or water into it under pressure so as to cause water turbulence.
