Energy Recovery, Inc. (NASDAQ:ERII) Files An 8-K Regulation FD DisclosureItem 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On June 19th, 2017, Energy Recovery, Inc. (the “Company”) hosted investors and analysts on a tour of its San Leandro facility. As part of the tour, investors witnessed a test of the VorTeqTM pressure exchanger device (the “PX”) operating in the Company’s in-house test loop. The test loop simulates and exposes a single PX to similar operating conditions that a single PX installed on the VorTeq would experience at a typical hydraulic fracturing site. In response to the test results from the 2016 milestone testing process, the foundation on which the PX is mounted now includes a vibration table that exposes the PX to frequencies resulting from system excitation at similar amplitudes to those encountered during previous milestone testing. Investors witnessed the Company pump a frac fluid containing 1.5 to 2.0 parts per gallon added of 30/50 frac sand, at a rate of over 7 barrels per minute, at pressures greater than 9000 psi while subjecting the PX to system excitation conditions similar to those discussed above. Consistent with prior disclosure, the Company is encouraged by recent test results that endeavor to simulate milestone testing, yet is cognizant of the challenges associated with scaling to full production, field conditions.
