AmSafe(R) Unveils Innovative Container Poised to Transform Global Air Cargo Industry; AcuTemp RKN(TM) is World's First Cargo Container to Meet All Industry Temperature Requirements.PHOENIX -- AmSafe(R) Inc., the leading provider of safety and securement products to the global transportation marketplace, today announced the launch of a revolutionary temperature-controlled cargo container, the AcuTemp RKN RKN Root Knot Nematode RKN Catholic-National Movement (Poland) RKN Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares RKN Remote Knowledge Network (Bucyrus International Inc.; monitoring system for mining equipment) . Born out of a strategic partnership between AmSafe's Bridport business unit and AcuTemp(R), a renowned thermal management company, the AcuTemp RKN was designed to meet the emerging requirements of today's global air cargo air cargo: see aviation. industry by offering for the first time ever freezer freezer the compartment in which meat and offal are stored at freezing temperatures of 10 to 16°F (-12 to -9°C) although there is a trend to lower temperatures of 0 to -22°F (-18 to -30°C). , refrigerator and room temperature capabilities in a single unit. The AcuTemp RKN will offer transportation companies the ability to reliably transport a wide array of temperature-sensitive temperature-sensitive living organisms that are sensitive to air temperatures outside of a narrow range, e.g. virus vaccine that does not replicate at deep body temperature, but does replicate in the respiratory tract. items around the globe. "Worldwide consumer demand for temperature-sensitive products has increased exponentially ex·po·nen·tial adj. 1. Of or relating to an exponent. 2. Mathematics a. Containing, involving, or expressed as an exponent. b. relative to advances in shipping technology. Regardless of the hurdles companies face in transporting such goods, businesses and consumers want these items immediately and in good condition," said Robert McIlwraith, executive vice president of AmSafe. "With the ability to transport perishable per·ish·a·ble adj. Subject to decay, spoilage, or destruction. n. Something, especially foodstuff, subject to decay or spoilage. Often used in the plural. products in a controlled environment for over 72 hours, the AcuTemp RKN will allow shippers to deliver goods in optimum condition anywhere in the world. We believe this capability will significantly transform the global shipping industry." The AcuTemp RKN is unrivalled in the industry as it provides temperature set points from -15 C to 22 C, the widest temperature range available for cargo containers currently in the market. Moreover, the AcuTemp RKN ensures accurate temperature control even if ambient temperatures Outside temperature at any given altitude, preferably expressed in degrees centigrade. drop to -20 C or soar SOAR - 1.

SOAR was originally implemented in Lisp and OPS5 and is currently implemented in Common Lisp. to 49 C. "Our goal was to develop a container that provides precise temperature control, whether its contents are stored or transported in sub-zero temperatures on a cargo ramp in Alaska or in the tropical heat conditions of Qatar," said Steven Boyd, sales and marketing director of AmSafe's Bridport business unit. "We set a new standard for shipping containers with the development of the AcuTemp RKN as it is truly a breakthrough solution for transporting all types of goods including vaccines, blood supply, pharmaceuticals, food products and high-tech components." "The AcuTemp RKN is a natural extension of our sophisticated line of mobile thermal management products," said Mike Mathile, president and chief executive officer of AcuTemp. "Our many years of experience in designing and engineering active transport solutions for pharmaceutical, bio-medical and other challenging applications have been applied in the development of this product to offer a unit that can maintain the right temperature for a broad spectrum of payloads." The AcuTemp RKN has been developed to meet and exceed all required air cargo standards. With weight always a significant issue for airline operators, its operational weight of 1,100 lbs. provides a significant advantage over other units of similar capabilities. The AcuTemp RKN container is the first product to be launched in AmSafe's new C Safe series, a family of specialized spe·cial·ize v. spe·cial·ized, spe·cial·iz·ing, spe·cial·iz·es v.intr. 1.
