Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

   On March 16, 1994, Thermo Instrument Systems Inc. ("Thermo Instrument" or the
"Company") acquired substantially all of the assets, subject to certain
liabilities, of the EnviroTech Controls, NORAN Instruments, TN Technologies,
Tremetrics, and Epsilon Industrial businesses (the "EnviroTech Measurements &
Controls Companies") of Baker Hughes Incorporated for a cash purchase price of
$87.3 million, subject to a post-closing adjustment. The purchase price was
based on the Company's determination of the fair value of the acquired
businesses and negotiations with Baker Hughes Incorporated (Baker Hughes). The
acquired businesses, which are part of the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls
group of Baker Hughes, collectively design, manufacture and market a variety of
process control, process measurement and laboratory analytical products for use
in a wide range of industrial, energy, environmental and research applications.
The purchase price was funded from cash on hand.

   Thermo Electron Corporation ("Thermo Electron"), the parent company of Thermo
Instrument, entered into an acquisition agreement with Baker Hughes in January
1994 with respect to this transaction and a related transaction in which another
Thermo Electron subsidiary, Thermedics Inc., acquired a company that is also
part of the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls group. Thermo Electron assigned
its rights to acquire the respective businesses to the Company and Thermedics
Inc.

   The Company has no present intention to use the equipment or other assets
acquired for purposes materially different from the purposes for which such
assets were used prior to the acquisition. However, the Company will review the
assets, corporate structure, capitalization, operations, properties, policies,
management and personnel of the acquired businesses and, upon completion of this
review, may develop alternative plans or proposals, including mergers, transfers
of a material amount of assets or other transactions or changes relating to the
businesses.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


     To the Stockholder and Board of Directors of EnviroTech
     Measurements & Controls Companies:

     We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the
     EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies, as of September 30,
     1993, and the related combined statements of operations, cash flows
     and stockholder's investment for the year then ended. These combined
     financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
     management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
     combined financial statements based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
     to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
     are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
     test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
     financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
     principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
     as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
     our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above
     present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
     the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies as of September 30,
     1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
     year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
     principles.

     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     FOR THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1993

     1.  SALE OF THE COMPANY

         EnviroTech Controls, Inc., NORAN Instruments, Inc., TN
         Technologies, Inc., Tremetrics, Inc. and Epsilon Industrial, Inc.
         (the "EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies") were all
         wholly owned subsidiaries of Baker Hughes Incorporated ("Baker
         Hughes"), the former parent.  On March 16, 1994, the EnviroTech
         Measurements & Controls Companies (the "Company") were purchased
         by Thermo Instrument Systems Inc. (the "Parent") for a cash
         purchase price of approximately $87.3 million, subject to a
         post-closing adjustment.  Thermo Instrument Systems Inc. is an
         81%-owned subsidiary of Thermo Electron Corporation.  No
         adjustment has been made to the combined financial statements due
         to or as a result of this transaction.  All significant
         intercompany items have been eliminated in the combined financial
         statements.  

     2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Stockholder's Investment - Stockholder's investment represents
         Baker Hughes' investment in and advances to the Company and the
         cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. 

         Revenue Recognition - Revenues from sales are recognized when
         goods are shipped.  Reserves for sales returns and warranty claims
         are recorded based upon historical experience.  Revenues from
         services are recognized at the time services are performed.

         Inventories - Inventories are stated primarily at the lower of
         average cost or market value and include materials, labor and
         manufacturing overhead.  Inventories consisted of the following at
         September 30, 1993 (In Thousands):

             Raw materials                                $11,826
             Work-in-process                               10,481
             Finished goods                                 9,298
                                                          -------
                Total                                     $31,605
                                                          =======

         Property, Plant and Equipment - The costs of additions and
         improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are
         charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is primarily provided
         using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
         the property as follows: building and improvements - 10 to 20
         years and machinery and equipment - 5 to 10 years.

         Goodwill - Goodwill arose primarily from Baker Hughes' purchase of
         the Instruments Group from Tracor Holdings, Inc. in May 1990 and
         is being amortized over 40 years.  Management of the Company

                                     Page 7PAGE
<PAGE>
     ENVIROTECH MEASUREMENTS & CONTROLS COMPANIES

         periodically reviews the carrying value of goodwill in relation to
         current and expected operating results of the segments of business
         that benefit from the goodwill in order to assess whether there
         has been a permanent impairment of goodwill.

         Income Taxes - The Company's operations are included in groups
         that file consolidated or combined income tax returns with other
         Baker Hughes operations.  Baker Hughes' intercompany tax
         allocation policy is for each division to calculate income tax
         expense on a stand-alone basis without regard to the utilization
         of net operating loss carryforwards or tax-planning strategies. In
         addition, full benefit is given to the current year's operating
         loss.

         Deferred income taxes are determined utilizing the liability
         approach as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes."  This method
         gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with
         differences between the financial accounting and tax basis of
         assets and liabilities.

         Environmental Matters - Remediation costs are accrued based on
         estimates of known environmental remediation exposure.  Such
         accruals that are insignificant in relation to the combined
         financial statements at September 30, 1993, are recorded when
         reasonably estimable even if significant uncertainties exist over
         the amount of the loss.  Ongoing environmental compliance costs,
         including maintenance and monitoring costs, are expensed as
         incurred.  Such amounts were insignificant for the year ended
         September 30, 1993.

         Foreign Currency - All assets and liabilities of the Company's
         foreign subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates,
         and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates
         for the year in accordance with SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency
         Translation."  Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as
         a separate component of stockholder's investment titled
         "Cumulative Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment."  Foreign
         currency transaction gains and losses are included in the
         accompanying combined statement of operations and are not material
         for the year ended September 30, 1993.

     3.  PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

         Property, plant and equipment consists of the following at
         September 30, 1993 (In Thousands):

             Land                                         $   294

     4.  OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

         Other intangible assets consist primarily of intangible assets
         associated with the Instruments Group acquisition in 1990 (See
         Note 2).  These assets are being amortized over periods ranging
         from 5 to 17 years.  The balances, net of accumulated
         amortization, at September 30, 1993 are as follows (In Thousands):

             Patents                                      $ 1,970
             Software                                       3,928

                                                          =======

     5.  INCOME TAXES

         The Company's U.S. operating results are included within the Baker
         Hughes U.S. consolidated income tax return.  Under the tax-sharing
         agreement in place, the Company is allowed to fully benefit any
         losses generated in the United States.  Also, the Company
         generally operates as a division of the Baker Hughes legal entity
         in each respective foreign jurisdiction.  Each of the Company's
         foreign operations is generally allowed to fully benefit losses
         incurred in their respective jurisdictions.  Under these worldwide
         policies, the tax accounts of the Company are stated as if there
         were no limitations on losses generated by the Company's business
         operations.

         The Company currently operates under Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes."  It
         intends to prospectively adopt Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
         effective October 1, 1993.  On a stand-alone basis, the adoption
         of SFAS 109 will have no significant effect on the combined
         financial statements. 

         The components of loss before taxes at September 30, 1993 are as
         follows (In Thousands):

             Domestic                                     $(12,510)

         The income tax benefit differs from the benefit calculated by
         applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% to loss
         before taxes for the year ended September 30, 1993 due to the
         following (In Thousands):

     6.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

         The Company participates in the Baker Hughes Thrift Plan (the
         "Thrift Plan") whereby eligible employees elect to contribute from
         2% to 10% of their salaries to an investment trust.  Employee
         contributions are matched by the Company at the rate of $.50 per
         $1.00 up to 6% of the employee's salary.  In addition, the Company
         contributes for all eligible employees between 2% and 5% of their
         salary depending on the employee's age as of January 1 each year.
         Generally, Company contributions become fully vested to the
         employee after five years of employment.  The Company's
         contributions to the Thrift Plan amounted to $1,676,000 in 1993.

         The Company also participates in various Baker Hughes defined
         benefit pension plans.  Costs related to these pension plans
         totaled $164,000 in 1993.

         The Company participates in a Baker Hughes sponsored plan whereby
         certain health care (primarily in the United States) and life
         insurance benefits are provided for retired employees.
         Substantially all employees may become eligible for these benefits
         if they reach normal retirement age while working for the Company.
         Costs related to benefits provided for retired employees are
         expensed as incurred and totaled $171,000 in 1993.

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 ("SFAS 106"),
         "Employers' Accounting for Post-retirement Benefits Other Than
         Pensions," was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board
         in December 1990.  The statement requires accrual basis accounting
         for such benefits as opposed to the Company's current method of
         cash basis accounting.  The Company will adopt this statement
         effective October 1, 1993.  The Company has elected to immediately
         recognize the cumulative effect of the change in accounting
         principle and will record a charge to income of approximately
         $2,029,000, net of income taxes of $1,093,000.  Expenses under
         SFAS 106 for 1994 related to these benefits are estimated to be
         $323,000.

     7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         At September 30, 1993, the Company had long-term operating leases
         covering certain facilities and equipment on which minimum annual
         rental commitments for the years ending September 30, 1994, 1995,
         1996, 1997 and 1998 are $2,619,000, $2,215,000, $2,046,000,
         $1,859,000 and $1,732,000, respectively, and $15,965,000 in the
         aggregate thereafter.  Rent expense was $3,069,000 in 1993.

         Subsequent to year end, as a result of the Thermo Instrument
         Systems Inc. acquisition of the Company, certain leased facilities
         were purchased from the former parent's leasing division.  Minimum
         annual rental commitments for the years ended September 30, 1994,
         1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998 will be reduced as a result of the

         acquisition by $397,000, $397,000, $397,000, $397,000, and
         $402,000, respectively, and $4,363,000 in the aggregate
         thereafter.

         At September 30, 1993, there were no contingencies, claims or
         lawsuits against the Company that, in the opinion of management,
         will have a significant effect on its combined financial
         statements.

     8.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         Certain services are provided to various subsidiaries of Baker
         Hughes at prices comparable to those received from unaffiliated
         customers.

         The Company participates in the Baker Hughes cash management
         system.  As a result, the bank overdraft at September 30, 1993
         represents checks that have not been presented to the bank for
         payment.

         The Company leases certain operating facilities from Baker Hughes.
         Rent expense paid to Baker Hughes totaled $876,000 in 1993.

     9.  INDUSTRY SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     1.  General

         The interim combined financial statements presented have been
         prepared by the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies
         without audit and, in the opinion of management, reflect all
         adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair
         statement of (a) the results of operations for the three-month
         periods ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, (b) the financial
         position at December 31, 1993, and (c) the cash flows for the
         three-month periods ended December 31, 1993 and 1992. Interim
         results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

     2.  Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle

         Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 ("SFAS 106"), "Employers'
         Accounting for Post-retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." The
         statement requires accrual basis accounting for such benefits. The
         Company elected to immediately recognize the cumulative effect of
         the change in accounting principle and recorded a charge to income
         of approximately $2,029,000, net of income taxes of $1,093,000.  

         Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting
         for Income Taxes." The adoption of SFAS 109 did not have a
         significant effect on the combined financial statements.

Item 7. Financial Statements, Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Information
        and Exhibits

        (b)  Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Information

             The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial
        statement sets forth the results of operations for the year ended
        January 1, 1994, as if the acquisition of the EnviroTech Measurements &
        Controls Companies by the Company had occurred at the beginning of
        fiscal 1993 and assuming there is no post-closing purchase price
        adjustment. The pro forma combined condensed statement of income
        includes the results of operations of the Company for the year ended
        January 1, 1994, and of the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies
        for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1993. The acquisition has been
        accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The pro forma
        results of operations are not necessarily indicative of future
        operations or the actual results that would have occurred had the
        acquisition of the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls Companies been
        consummated at the beginning of fiscal 1993. The combined financial
        statements filed under part (a) of this item should be read in
        conjunction with these pro forma combined condensed financial
        statements.

            NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT
                                   (Unaudited)



Note A - Basis of Presentation

   The allocation of the purchase price is based on an estimate of the fair
value of the net assets acquired and is subject to adjustment. To date, no
information has been gathered that would cause the Company to believe that the
final allocation of the purchase price will be materially different than the
preliminary estimate.

Note B - Pro Forma Adjustments to Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statement 
         of Income

   The pro forma adjustment to "Cost of instrument revenues" represents the
increase in the carrying value of the EnviroTech Measurements & Controls
Companies' finished goods inventory to the estimated selling price, less the sum
of costs of disposal and a reasonable allowance for the Company's selling
efforts.

   The pro forma adjustment to "Selling, general and administrative expenses"
represents the amortization over 40 years of $52,873,000 of "Cost in excess of
net assets of acquired companies" created by the acquisition of the EnviroTech
Measurements & Controls Companies.

   The pro forma adjustment to "Interest income" represents an estimate of the
decrease in interest income attributable to the lower cash position as a result
of the total cash payment of $87,289,000 to acquire the EnviroTech Measurements
& Controls Companies, calculated using an average interest rate of 3.52%.

   The pro forma adjustment to "Income tax provision (benefit)" represents a
reduction in income taxes associated with the adjustments above, calculated at
the Company's statutory income tax rate of 41%.
