Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) announced today that its subsidiary, Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc., in Huntsville, Ala., has been awarded a $19.4 million contract to manufacture and deliver an initial complement of gas centrifuge service modules. This contract was awarded by Fluor Enterprises, Inc., acting as an agent for USEC Inc.

The service modules will be key components of an advanced gas centrifuge enrichment technology that USEC Inc. will use to enrich uranium to make fuel for commercial nuclear power plants. Fluor, a strategic supplier to USEC Inc., is the engineering, procurement and construction manager for the American Centrifuge commercial plant. The plant will be the only U.S. owned and operated enrichment plant in this country, replacing USECs older, more expensive gaseous diffusion technology in use today.

The company also maintains certifications for manufacturing nuclear pressure vessels, piping systems and components. Additionally, Teledyne Brown specializes in radiological testing for commercial nuclear environmental compliance and atmospheric sample analysis for government programs.

Teledyne Brown Engineering anticipates delivery of the service modules in the fall of 2008.
