ANTI-POLLUTION EFFORTS AT RACAL-DATACOM RECOGNIZED BY ENVIRONMENTAL
WORKSHOP

April 7, 1993 -- SUNRISE, FL. -- Racal-Datacom of Sunrise was featured as
one of "Broward County's Success Stories" during the 1993 Pollution
Prevention Workshop sponsored by the South Florida Chapter of the Florida
Association of Environmental Professionals, the Broward County Department
of Natural Resources Protection and the Dade County Department of
Environmental Resources Management.

The Broward officials selected Racal for their workshop display after
touring the company's Harrison Park manufacturing facility.

"Racal-Datacom was able to educate us about the procedures that it used for
pollution prevention in the manufacturing of electronic circuit boards,"
said Kay M. Gervasi, one of three Broward County Department of Natural
Resources Protection engineers touring the company's manufacturing
facilities. "Now we can go to other companies with similar activities and
teach them what we've learned from Racal."

Bud Hartman, Principal Facility Engineer--Environmental Compliance at Racal
Datacom and Jauwhei Hong of Process Engineering conducted the tour at
Harrison Park, the Racal headquarters and manufacturing facility in
Sunrise.

Gervasi, manager of the department's Pollution Prevention and Control
Section, said companies are being urged by state and local government
agencies to do more pollution prevention. In the case of Racal-Datacom,
the company has already taken steps to promote pollution prevention, so
the county pollution fighters learned from those steps and now can teach
them to other companies in the community.

Most companies in Broward County are smaller than Racal-Datacom and can't
assign people to watch environmental issues the way that company has done,
Gervasi added.

During their tour the county pollution prevention engineers took
photographs of projects where Racal had reduced the use of
1,1,1-Trichloroethane solvent and CFC (Freon) solvents by adoption of
no-clean machinery in the printed circuit board manufacturing The no-clean
technology also saves 6,000 gallons of fresh water daily that previously
was needed in the manufacturing process. The use of bins to collect
materials for recycling also was noted by the county anti-pollution
engineers.

More than 275 persons "from private industry, government agencies, and the
environmental consulting industry met to discuss problems, share solutions
and formulate goals for the future" at the March 10 workshop in Dania,
Hartman said.

Zang Printing of Hollywood and List Industries of Deerfield Beach were the
other companies visited by the county anti-pollution engineers and
photographed for the Broward County display at the workshop.

Racal-Datacom is a leading independent provider of data communications
products, systems and services designed to meet the business objectives of
corporations and government organizations. The company reported revenues
of more than $606 million for fiscal year 1992.
