Item  2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
              Results of Operations.


Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June  30, 1995

     as compared to

Six Months Ended June 30, 1994

The  Company generated net sales of $19,230,088 in  the  six months
ended June 30, 1995, as compared to $20,921,694  for the same period in
1994.  The $1,691,606 or 8.1% decrease in sales  was primarily
attributable to a decline in the number of units shipped during the
period. The higher volume in the number of units sold in the first half
of 1994 stemmed  from a  major  contract executed with the City of New
York.  The sales  decline  was  partially  offset  by  slightly  higher
average unit selling prices.

Gross  profit  expressed as a percentage of  net  sales  was 20.2%  in
the six months ended June 30, 1995 as compared  to 21.8%  experienced
during the same period  in  1994.   This decrease  in  gross  margin
reflects  reduced  productivity levels  associated with the lower volume
of  shipments  and higher manufacturing overhead.

The   Company's  selling,  administrative  and   engineering expenses
during  the  first  six  months  of   1995   were $3,415,037,  or 17.8%
of net sales, compared to  $3,649,207, or  17.4%  of net sales in the
first half of 1994. The  main cause  for  this  $234,170  decline  was
a    decrease   in extended service warranty reserves.

Other  income  for the six months ended June  30,  1995  was $172,725 as
compared to $77,802 for the same period in 1994. The  increase  in
other income was mainly due  to  slightly higher rates of return on
invested cash and a higher average investment portfolio of cash and cash
equivalents.  Included in  other  income for the first half of 1994 was
$51,296  in interest income and $20,124 of equipment rental income.

Other expenses were $8,710 for the six months ended June 30, 1995  as
compared to the $97,231 recorded in the first  six months of 1994.
Other expenses in 1994 included $29,504  in interest  expense  and the
effect of the early  termination, and  associated write-down, of the
unamortized portion of  a licensing and distributor agreement.

Net  earnings  for the six months ended June  30,  1995  was $422,042
or $ 0.11 per share, as compared to net income  of $588,374 or $ .15 per
share for the same period in 1994.

Three Months Ended June  30, 1995 ("Second Quarter 1995")

     as compared to

Three Months Ended June 30, 1994 ("Second Quarter 1994")

The  Company's  net sales for the Second Quarter  1995  were $8,735,980,
representing a 24.0% decline from net  sales  of $11,494,330 achieved in
the Second Quarter 1994.  The  sales decline  was  primarily
attributable to a  decrease  in  the number  of  units shipped and fewer
replacement  part  sales during the period.  Last year's net sales
reflect the effect of  volume gains in the number of units sold stemming
from a major contract originally executed with the City of New York in
1993.

The  gross  profit  margin was 18.5% of net  sales  for  the Second
Quarter  1995  compared with  23.7%  in  the  Second Quarter  1994.  The
decrease in gross margin stems  from  an increase   in   manufacturing
overhead  and  inefficiencies associated  with  the  lower  overall
sales  volume  levels experienced in the first half of 1995.

Selling,  administrative and engineering  expenses  declined $245,210,
or 12.2% to $1,766,565 in the Second Quarter  1995 as  compared  to
$2,011,775 recorded in the Second  Quarter 1994.   This decline in large
part reflects lower legal  and professional  fees and a decrease in
warranty  reserves  for extended service warranty plans.

Other  income  was $104,372 in the Second Quarter  1995,  up from
$19,857  reported for the Second  Quarter  1994.   The increase in other
income was mainly due to a higher  average investment portfolio of cash
and cash equivalents.

Net  loss after tax for the Second Quarter 1995 was  $28,339 or $ .01
per share, as compared to net earnings after tax of $471,576 or $ .12
per share recorded for the same period  in 1994.

Effects of Inflation

The Company attempts to minimize the impact of inflation  on production
and operating costs through cost control programs and  productivity
improvements.  Over the past three  years, the  rate of inflation has
not had significant impact on the Company's  operations.  Prices paid
for  raw  materials  and other  manufacturing  inputs  have  remained
fairly  stable throughout this period.  On a longer-term basis, the
Company has demonstrated an ability to adjust the selling prices  of its
products in reaction to changing costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At  June  30,  1995  the  Company  had  working  capital  of
$20,710,399.  The  ratio  of  current  assets   to   current liabilities
was 7.4  to 1 and the debt to equity  ratio  was .15 to 1.

This compares to working capital of $20,273,562; a ratio  of current
assets to current liabilities of 5.3 to  1;  and  a debt to equity ratio
of .20 to 1 at December 31, 1994.

At June 30, 1995, cash and cash equivalents were $4,848,917, up
$2,203,276 from $2,645,641 at December 31, 1994 primarily as a result of
cash generated from operating activities.

The Company generally relies upon internally generated funds to  satisfy
working capital requirements and to fund capital expenditures.  The
Company utilized and repaid $1,600,000 of its  short-term credit line
during the six months ended June 30,  1994  to  assist in financing the
production  of  units associated with the executed orders received from
New  York in  1993.  Other than utilizing the available line of credit
as  needed,  the Company does not presently plan  to  borrow long-term
funds or sell securities.

The  Company  believes that existing working  capital,  cash flow from
future operations, and the available bank line  of credit  provide
adequate  resource  to  finance  the   cash requirements of future
capital expenditures.
