PowerStream Expansion Continues
Orem, Utah, 21 June 2001. In a summary of PowerStream's progress since being
acquired by Lund Instrument Engineering 18 months ago, management has released the following statistics: growth in employment
of 300% from 7 to 21; growth in annualized sales 460%; increase in facility space 100%. Kim A Green, CFO, also pointed out that
the addition of the EMI Screen Room Facility, and the Computerized Battery Algorithm Development and Test Laboratory has
greatly added to our ability to develop products quickly.
Roger M. Hart appointed VP Engineering
Orem, Utah, 21 May 2001. The Power Stream CEO, Dr. Lund, has announced the promotion
of Roger Hart to the position of Vice President of Engineering. Mr. Hart has a wide experience in power products, automotive
electronics, and scientific instruments. Dr. Lund said "Mr. Hart adds vehicle electronics to our expertise, and adds depth to
our ability to develop power products quickly."
Battery Algorithm Development Laboratory
Orem, Utah, 12 April 2001. PowerStream announces the completion of our new
computerized battery algorithm development laboratory. This gives us the ability to more quickly develop and evaluate charge
algorithms, charge batteries in a fully instrumented temperature chamber, and evaluate termination methods over any temperature
range. The facility has already helped one customer troubleshoot a problem in terminating charge at low temperatures. E.C.
Bard, points out "This lab is also being used to develop fast charging algorithms which incorporate heat management techniques
for battery packs."
Kim A. Green appointed CFO
Orem, Utah, 1 February 2001. We are pleased to announce that Kim A.
Green has agreed to join PowerStream, taking the new position of CFO. Dr. Mark W. Lund, CEO of PowerStream said "We have grown
to the size that we need a full time CFO. Mr. Green has experience in engineering, project management, and finance, and has an
MBA from the Marriot School of Management. He is well equipped to help us grow.
PowerStream Expands facilities
Orem, Utah, 11 October 2000. PowerStream has moved into the other two units at 140
South Mountainway Drive, doubling the facility size to 12,000 square feet. CEO Mark W. Lund said "Our increased business and
personnel made the expansion essential." Added space include new executive offices, warehouse space, and a new manufacturing
area.
EMI Test Screen Room Added
Orem, Utah, 18 March 2000. PowerStream has added an engineering resource to speed up
development time. An EMI test screen room has been installed. Pavel Brovkin, test engineer, said "Although this 8 x 8 x 12 foot
chamber is too small to calibrate, it greatly enhances our ability to detect noise increase or decrease in breadboards as
modifications are made to the circuitry. This helps us ensure that agency approvals will happen without the time and expense of
going to an outside facility."
Buyout of assets takes PowerStream private
Orem, Utah, 21 January, 2000. The assets of PowerStream Technology
division of Pen Interconnect, Inc. was purchased by Lund Instrument Engineering, Inc. The new management team include Dr. Mark
W. Lund, CEO, and Daniele Rene, President. The PowerStream Technologies name will continue in a more responsive, innovative,
and nimble company. PowerStream specializes in the custom design and production of high quality, high performance
uninterruptable power supplies (UPS), intelligent battery chargers, testers and other power supply products.
Custom Power
Products for Diverse Applications
PowerStream Technology is organized and equipped to provide
outsourcing solutions, beginning in the Product Development phase, and extending through layout, design, prototyping, safety
certification and production. PowerStream Technology also boasts expertise in integrating analog and digital technologies for
power applications. The diverse applications already employing PowerStream's technology solutions and proprietary designs
include medical/ biomedical, automotive, computers and information systems, military, industrial and consumer products.
Product "Know-How"
PowerStream Technology custom-designs and integrates "Intelligence"
into many of its products. This battery chargers "know" how to optimize the charge cycle and "know" when full charge is
reached. Optimize charge cycles preclude damage and downtime, and charge time is reduced from 40 percent to as much as 90
percent. This design -in intelligence is achieved through a combination of uniquely integrated circuitry and software that
manages, monitors and controls the complete system.
