Teledyne Technologies Acquires Advanced Pollution Instrumentation

LOS ANGELES - November 8, 2001 - Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) announced today that it has acquired Advanced Pollution Instrumentation, Inc.

Teledyne's strong positions in the industrial and semiconductor markets will, in turn, accelerate the introduction of API's new line of ultra-sensitive gas analyzers for process control applications."

API, which will be renamed Teledyne Advanced Pollution Instrumentation, Inc., had sales of $16.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2001. Teledyne Technologies expects the acquisition of API to be accretive to earnings in 2002.
