Union, Amendments to Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 is amended as follows: Having regard to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related products (') and in particular Article 15(1) ‘Article 1 thereof, (1) Article 1 is replaced by the following Subject matter and scope 1. This Regulation establishes ecodesign requirements for After consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum, the placing on the market and the putting into service of motors, including those integrated in other products. Whereas: 2. This Regulation shall not apply to: (a) motors specified to operate wholly immersed in a liquid; (1)  Experience gained in implementing Commission Regu- lation (EC) No 640/2009 (%) has revealed the need to amend certain provisions of Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 to avoid unintended impacts on the motor market and on the performance of the products covered by that Regulation. (b) motors completely integrated into a product (for example gear, pump, fan or compressor) of which the energy performance cannot be tested independently from the product; (c) motors specified to operate exclusively: (2)  Recent developments in the market of electric motors have led to changes on the limit values applied to (i) at altitudes exceeding 4 000 metres above sea-level; altitude, maximum and minimum ambient air temperatures and water coolant temperatures applied to consider that a motor works under extreme conditions (i) where ambient air temperatures exceed 60 °C; and in consequece a special design is needed. These developments need to be reflected on the Regulation. (iii) in maximum operating temperature above 400 °C; (iv) where ambient air temperatures are less than — 30 °C for any motor or less than 0 °C for a motor with water cooling; (3)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee estab- lished by Article 19(1) of Directive 2009/125/EC, () OJ L 285, 31.10.2009, p. 10. (v) where the water coolant temperature at the inlet to OJ L 191, 23.7.2009, p. 26. a product is less than 0 °C or exceeding 32 °C; or
