Animated PX Pressure Exchanger Model

This custom Animated PX Pressure Exchanger Model was engineered to clearly demonstrate how Energy Recovery’s PX technology operates. Designed for trade shows, presentations, and technical demonstrations, the model uses synchronized motion and lighting to visualize internal processes that are difficult to show with the actual equipment.

Interactive Model to Demonstrate PX Technology

To accurately communicate how the PX Pressure Exchanger functions, KiwiMill designed and built a fully animated display featuring rotating components, color-coded lighting, and programmed timing. The animations illustrate fluid movement, energy transfer, and the internal cycling process—making complex engineering concepts easy to understand for any audience.

The demonstration is driven by two Arduino controllers: one powering the stepper motor to rotate the central chamber, and the other controlling the RGB LED lighting sequences. A hall-effect sensor was integrated to ensure perfect synchronization between the lighting effects and mechanical movement.

Key Features of the Animated PX Pressure Exchanger Model

• Functional rotating center section driven by a precision stepper motor
• RGB LED lighting effects to illustrate fluid flow and energy transfer
• Hall-effect sensor for synchronized lighting and motion timing
• Dual Arduino control system for seamless, programmable animation
• Electronics fully concealed within the base for a clean, professional appearance
• Durable exhibition-ready construction designed for repeated transport and use

Built for Technical Demonstration and Customer Engagement

This model helps Energy Recovery explain system behavior quickly and effectively—ideal for trade shows, sales meetings, training sessions, and customer demonstrations. The visual clarity provided by lighting and motion makes the PX technology far easier to understand than diagrams or static displays.
