Products and applications

Be-Rex's innovative STaR architecture opens up exciting possibilities for designing a new generation of highly compact products, including turbines, pumps, and aggregates. Each product line is described in increasing complexity.

Compact Turbines: Powered by compressed air or water

Be-Rex's turbine is the 'least complex' application of the new STaR architecture. Air or fluid pressure causes the mechanism to rotate, and energy can be generated through the built-in magnets and coils functioning as a dynamo. This turbine produces direct current, making it ideal for charging batteries directly.

Additional applications include:

  • Producing or recovering electricity through residual gas or liquid pressure, as in hydroelectric power plants.
  • Replacing turbines that use blades to produce electrical power.

Compact Electrical Pumps

Using electricity to power a machine based on the STaR architecture creates a pump capable of moving gases or liquids. Compared to the turbine, it requires additional electronics to control the coils and force rotation. Be-Rex prefers using direct current for the electric drive, enabling direct drive via accumulators or batteries.

Applications include:

  • Artificial hearts with four chambers.
  • Air blowers as a replacement for centrifugal pumps.
  • Electric pumps in vehicles, vessels, aircraft, and aerospace.

Compact and Lightweight Aggregates

Be-Rex's STaR architecture can be used as internal combustion engine. The magnets and coils are used to start the engine and also as a dynamo, to generate electric power. The result is a compact Be-Rex generator that is half the size and weight of traditional generators.

Applications include:

  • Portable generators for mobile electricity at campsites, on boats or in crisis situations after natural disasters.
  • Portable range extenders for (stranded) electric vehicles (EV), solving the problem of 'range anxiety.'
