VALHALLA, NY and FRANKLIN PARK, IL - March 17, 2006 -- Del Global Technologies

regulators have completed the final testing required to certify the
manufacturing operations of Del Medical Systems Group's ("DMSG") facilities in

toward our stated goal of establishing DMSG's presence in the large and growing
Chinese market. In anticipation of this certification, we began to market
digital imaging products in China, and have begun to build a team to support
this objective. We are also working toward the goal of certification of all Del
Medical Systems products and the Villa facility in order to continue to grow our
sales footprint in this important market. "
