EMERSON CLIMATE TECHNOLOGIES’ INTELLIGENT STORE™ DISCUS® COMPRESSOR ACCUMULATES 5 MILLION OPERATING HOURS WITHOUT FAILURE

ST. LOUIS, September 4, 2007 – Emerson Climate Technologies, a business of Emerson (NYSE: EMR), announced today a new monumental mark for their Intelligent Store™ Discus® compressors in supermarket refrigeration applications. Since the first field test in 2003 and product launch in 2005, Emerson Climate Technologies has installed over 600 Intelligent Store Discus compressors into supermarket refrigeration systems. Since then, they have accumulated five million operating hours without a compressor application failure, marking a significant achievement in reliability.

The Intelligent Store Discus compressor offers many features that allow customers to experience fewer compressor failures, thereby saving cost, reducing equipment downtime and avoiding food spoilage. By integrating several traditional components into one control module, the Intelligent Store Discus compressor requires less wiring and fewer connection points, improving system quality and ensuring installation ease and consistency. And, it is compatible with the Emerson Climate Technologies Intelligent Store Architecture and E2 Facility Management System, allowing supermarket chains and technicians to better troubleshoot, monitor and control their system operations.

Many customers have experienced improved refrigeration system operation with the use of the Intelligent Store Discus compressor. Price Chopper, a supermarket chain in the northeast United States, installed their first Intelligent Store Discus compressor in February of 2005. Price Chopper chose the Intelligent Store Discus compressor because of its many benefits, including improved commissioning, maintenance advantages, reduced downtime and fewer refrigerant leak points. And, as a result of these features, they have yet to experience a failure on their Intelligent Store Discus Compressors.

“Intelligent Store Discus compressors do most of the thinking for you. The diagnostics on the compressor inform you of system problems, so that you can do predictive maintenance and avoid failures”, said Benny Smith, director of maintenance for Price Chopper. “With products like this, Emerson Climate Technologies will continue to stay ahead of the curve in supermarket refrigeration.”

Smith will be discussing this topic further at the Food Marketing Institute Energy and Technical Services Conference on September 9-12, 2007 at the Marriott Denver Tech Center in Denver, Colorado.
