WILD DIVORCE SETTLEMENTS 3 Times the Division of Assets Got Out of Control

MIKROPOR MK SERIES COMPRESSED AIR DRYERS

Integrated Filtration and Reliable Performance

A compressed air dryer is an essential component of any air compressor system. As the pivot between the supply (intake) and demand (distribution) sides of a system, it has a huge impact on overall efficiency and quality. Mikropor’s MK Series of compressed air dryers offers great design, reliable performance, and easy maintenance, all of which provide you with energy cost savings and peace of mind. One the most eye-catching features of the MK Series is its integrated pre- and after- filtration system. Normally,

When you’re untying the knot, it’s important to be specific about the assets you hope to walk away with. These three over-the-top divorce settlements are good examples of what not to do when dissolving your marriage. YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDNEY ME Back in 2001, Dr. Richard Batista donated his kidney to his ailing wife, Dawnell, to save her life. Sweet, right? It was — until Dawnell filed for divorce in 2005 and Dr. Batista demanded she give back his kidney or compensate him for $1.5 million in damages. In the end, his request was thrown out in court because the kidney was a gift — and because removing it would be potentially fatal to his ex-spouse. A LIFE RENT IN TWO When Moeun Sarim and Vat Navy decided to divorce after 18 years of marriage, Moeun apparently decided that, to keep the split equitable, he and his wife should divide their assets in half — literally. Moeun and his relatives cut the home down the middle, dismantled his portion, and hauled it away. Vat’s half was left standing with one wall missing. ‘HERE, MY DEAR’ In the divorce agreement between the late Marvin Gaye and his ex, Anna Gordy, it was decided that Anna would be paid from the royalties of Gaye’s next album since he had gone broke from his lavish spending. At first, Gaye decided he’d phone in the production, but he quickly discovered an opportunity to make a unique artistic statement: “I’ll give her my next album, but it’ll be something she won’t want to play and it’ll be something she won’t want the world to hear because I’m gonna tell the world the truth.” In the end, the album was a commercial flop, though critics continue to praise its raw, emotional core.

a particle filter would be installed inline prior to the compressed air dryer, and an oil removal filter after it. Placing these filters within a system’s piping greatly adds to installation costs and increases the difficulty of maintenance and repair. The MK Series houses both of these filters, along with all of its digitally cycling air-drying components, in a single unit. The design allows technicians to replace filters quickly and easily, slashing your labor costs. In addition to this innovative, integrated design, all MK Series units come with a digital controller. It not only displays dew point and other important data, but also includes automated maintenance reminders. Your dryer will tell you when it needs servicing, which eliminates guesswork and ensures continued optimal performance. The MK Series can be used for a number of applications including food production, pharmaceuticals, photo labs, powder coating, sand blasting, and many more. No matter the size of your system, there’s a Mikropor MK Series compressed air dryer to match it. Call us today to learn more about the MK Series and the benefits of integrating filtration into your compressed air dryer. We can help assess which unit will save you the most in operating costs while improving your overall production efficiency. Who wouldn’t view that as a win-win?
