TAMPA, Fla., July 12, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Internal Hydro International Inc. (OTCBB:IHDR) (www.InternalHydro.com) announces that the company has completed production and internal testing of the Energy Commander V (EC V) low impact hydro energy unit. The Company is now displaying the completed EC V unit on its web site, before transportation to its fielding site. The unit's internal testing exceeded all expectations for its revolutionary design. The 12 cylinder rotary motor, the first ever to run from the patented positive displacement of fluid instead of less efficient turbines, runs from a six inch inlet of water, in an expandable mode which can be used on waste water flows from tens of thousands of sources. With the completed internal testing of the unit, the system will now be transported to its fielding and on site production engineering site, with an anticipated delivery date of July 17, for field tests and engineering certification of this production unit.
The EC V system utilizes a dual cycle cylinder to produce energy in a completely efficient manner, from all twelve cylinders in the rotary fashion. The unit, displayed on the Company's web site, shows viewers photographs of some of the internal parts, and the completed EC V rotary, 12 cylinder unit which will now be passed off for field testing at a location to be announced within the next week. The Energy Commander system is the first positive displacement low impact energy technology ever built or patented for use of low flows, and waste flows of industrial and natural flows.
IHDR's EC V unit will now be fielded to a site where it will be certified for energy production, and for production plans. The follow on production of ten units is now projected for the third quarter 2006.
The EC V "slice" concept was used in production of the 12 cylinder unit. As built, each rotary 360 degree slice houses twelve 4 inch cylinders, will be able to be stacked with other slices to provide the 30 kilowatts of standard output, with additional or less slices, each of 12 cylinders, needed or not needed based upon the flow that is present at any one location. IHDR has recently announced that it was able to plan for as little as 30 p.s.i. of pressure for production of electricity in multiple units at a single site. Expandability is a key that traditional turbine technology does not support.
