systems. They set new standards in terms of reliability, performance, energy efficiency, ease of use, and maintenance.

OPTIMISED ENERGY EFFICIENCY

The introduction of Smart energy technology and a variable-speed inverter has transformed the energy performance of the Evosta 2. The EEI efficiency index has been driven down to ≤ 0.18, achieving efficiency levels unprecedented in circulator pumps. ADVANCED PROTECTION AND DURABILITY The Evosta 2 boasts IPX5 protection, a certified shield against water infiltration, safeguarding both mechanical and sensitive electronic components. Constructed from stainless steel grade AISI 304, the circulator guarantees not only peak performance but also an extended operational lifespan.

Challenges in the industry

IMPRESSIVE PERFORMANCE METRICS Operating within a wide range from 0.4 to 4.2m 3 /h, with a head capacity of up to 8 meters and the ability to withstand a working pressure of 10 bar, the Evosta 2 proves to be the ideal choice for various heating and cooling applications. DAB’s Evosta 2 circulators represent a remarkable stride in the heating and cooling solutions industry, combining cutting- edge technology with user- friendly design and unparalleled efficiency.

Amidst these innovations, the pump industry faces a pressing concern. An influx of non- compliant central heating pumps into the UK market has raised alarm bells among industry leaders. Over 100,000 of these non-compliant pumps are sold in the UK annually. Steve Schofield, Chief Executive of the British Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA), highlighted the severity of the situation, estimating that around 10% of the one million central heating pumps imported into the UK fail to meet compliance standards. This unchecked influx of non-compliant pumps exacerbates the issue, affecting consumers and undermining climate change targets. The chief executive underscored the imperative need for government intervention to curb the proliferation of non-compliant pumps. While importers, distributors, and installers share responsibilities in ensuring compliance, government involvement is indispensable in safeguarding consumers and advancing climate change goals.

STREAMLINED MAINTENANCE

The inclusion of an air-vent plug streamlines the process of venting trapped air from the system and offers direct access to the shaft in case of seizure. This simplifies maintenance procedures, enhancing user confidence. USER-CENTRIC INTERFACE The Evosta 2 features a user- friendly, one-button quick selection interface to control operating settings. This intuitive interface reduces the learning curve, promoting ease of interaction.
