| 01/08 Compressed Air Industry ENERGY MANAGEMENT | MIKROPOR AMERICA, INC. How does the MB dryer ensure a stable dewpoint under varying load conditions? The two-valve regulation system, the Thermostatic Expansion Valve and the Hot Gas Bypass Valve is the guarantee of a stable dewpoint at varying loads. The two valves are working together and have a quick response time. The heat exchanger is a crucial part of the MB Dryer performance and the heat transfer efficiency has a major impact on dewpoint and on energy consumption. What type of warranty and quality guarantee does the MB Dryer carry? Delivery of a quality product is critical for success in this market. The MB dryer carries a full two-year warranty and the heat exchanger is guaranteed for five years. Every dryer is thoroughly tested before leaving the factory. In-process checks include helium leak tests, multiple quality control inspections and final assembly tests. We are very confident that Mikropor is delivering one of the finest refrigerated dryers in the market. What is Mikropor focusing on for product development and investments for the future? We pay very close attention to what our OEM customers and markets need so our product development efforts generally follow their need for better efficiency, smaller designs or lower costs. They have a vision for their market and we try to help them achieve that vision. At the same time, we anticipate where the market is going and work on developing proprietary products and capabilities to share with our customers. To get there, we are continually investing in new processes and equipment so we can deliver consistent value, world-class quality and top performance for our customers.

While we have had a presence in the US market for many years, our recent expansion into having a full-time presence in North and South America is an important step for us. Over time, our US operations will include more distribution locations to serve our different markets and will, very likely, include manufacturing. We are looking forward to meeting the needs of this market for many years to come and will continue to invest in our presence here so we can deliver the highest quality products and provide exceptional levels of service to our customers.
