Draft Commission Regulation implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for fans driven by motors with an electric input power between 125 W and 500 kW and repealing Commission Regulation (EU) No 327/2011: This draft Commission Regulation covers machines driven by motors with an electric input power between 125 W and 500 kW, and designed to maintain a continuous flow of air or other gas passing through it by means of one or more impellers, to be placed on the EU market. The draft regulation lays down minimum energy performance requirements of fans; appropriate requirements contributing to circular economy objectives in particular, requirements on resource efficiency including availability of necessary spare parts and maximum delivery time thereof, access to repair and maintenance information, requirements for disassembly for the purpose of repair and for material recovery and recycling, and information requirements, including information about fan performance at part load. In accordance with the Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC, fans not meeting these requirements will not be allowed to be placed on the EU market. The draft Regulation is based on the findings of technical, environmental and economic studies and takes into account the opinions of the different stakeholders.
