EMERSON CLIMATE TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES NEW COPELAND DISCUS DIGITAL™

Emerson's Proven Digital Modulation Technology Now For Copeland Discus Compressors

ST. LOUIS, January 29, 2007 - Emerson Climate Technologies, a business of Emerson (NYSE: EMR), today announced its latest product, the Copeland Discus Digital™ compressor. As the newest addition to the Copeland Discus® compressor family, the Discus Digital product line offers capacity modulation never before seen in reciprocating compressor applications and is available for a range of discus compressors from three to six cylinders.

Copeland Discus semi-hermetic compressors have long set the standard as the industry's most trusted name for refrigeration, due to their inherent reliability and efficient use of energy. The new Copeland Discus Digital compressor builds on the success of these features while also offering additional benefits.

Offering continuous modulation from 10-to-100 percent, Copeland Discus Digital provides the ability to precisely match capacity to the desired load of refrigeration equipment. This reduces the suction pressure and temperature variation of the refrigerated space and provides a dramatic decrease in compressor cycling rates, therefore improving compressor reliability. Introducing Copeland Discus Digital into a refrigeration system also allows the system to precisely match the capacity being generated to the required load, providing the opportunity for the system to operate more efficiently, resulting in optimum system performance and control.

With continuous variable modulation, Copeland Discus Digital ensures precise temperature control, making it ideal for temperature sensitive applications. By improving product reliability, energy efficiency and system longevity, Copeland Discus Digital reduces overall costs for the end-user.

"The Copeland Discus Digital compressor delivers an ability to control temperature that end-users have never experienced," said Kurt Knapke, Supermarket Market Manager, with Emerson Climate Technologies. "This level of modulation is tailor-made for temperature sensitive applications and for improving the modulation capabilities of multiple compressor systems by bridging the gaps between the capacity steps of the fixed capacity compressors. Therefore, the capability of Copeland Discus Digital reduces compressor cycling, improves compressor reliability, and improves system efficiency."
