Recent Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract] | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In January2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No.2010-06, Fair value Measurements and Disclosures (ASU 2010-06). ASU 2010-06 provides amendments that clarify existing disclosures and require new disclosures related to fair value measurements providing greater disaggregated information on each class of assets and liabilities and more robust disclosures on transfers between levels 1 and 2 and activity in level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted the applicable provisions within ASU 2010-06 effective January1, 2010. See Note 3. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the level 3 disclosures of ASU 2010-06 that are effective for fiscal years beginning after December15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. In February2010, the FASB issued ASU No.2010-09, Subsequent Events (ASU 2010-09). ASU 2010-09 removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date in both the issued and revised financial statements for which the Company evaluated events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASU 2010-09 is effective as of February2010. |
Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurement | 3. Fair Value Measurement The Company utilizes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to the valuations used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted)in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Companys own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liabilitys classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. At March31, 2010, $14.1million of the Companys cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are valued as level 1 investments. In addition, the Company held $4.4million of marketable securities in an institutional diversified equity securities mutual fund, which are valued as level 2 investments. The Company also held $9.1million of investments in fixed-income securities valued as level 2 investments. The marketable securities are shown as a separate line on the consolidated balance sheet. The fixed-income securities are included in the investments and other assets line of the consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March31, 2010, gains and losses on the investments noted above were not significant. No transfers between level 1 and level 2 investments occurred in the three months ended March31, 2010. Fair value of the institutional equity securities mutual fund was estimated using the net asset value of the Companys ownership interests in the funds capital. The mutual fund seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equity securities traded on U.S. exchanges and issued by large, established companies across many business sectors. Fair value of the fixed-income securities was estimated using observable market inputs and the securities are primarily corporate debt instruments and U.S. Government securities. There are no restrictions on the Companys ability to redeem these equity and fixed-income securities investments. |

Hedging Activities [Abstract] | |
Hedging Activities | 4. Hedging Activities The Company has designated certain foreign-currency-denominated long-term debt as hedges of the net investment in certain foreign operations. These net investment hedges are the Companys British-pound-denominated long-term debt and Euro-denominated long-term debt, pertaining to certain European acquisitions whose functional currencies are either the British pound or the Euro. These acquisitions were financed by foreign-currency-denominated borrowings under the Companys revolving credit facility and subsequently refinanced with long-term private placement debt. These borrowings were designed to create net investment hedges in each of the foreign subsidiaries on their respective dates of acquisition. On the respective dates of acquisition, the Company designated the British pound- and Euro-denominated loans referred to above as hedging instruments to offset foreign exchange gains or losses on the net investment in the acquired business due to changes in the British pound and Euro exchange rates. These net investment hedges were evidenced by managements documentation supporting the contemporaneous hedge designation on the acquisition dates. Any gain or loss on the hedging instrument following hedge designation (the debt), is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in the same manner as the translation adjustment on the investment based on changes in the spot rate, which is used to measure hedge effectiveness. At March31, 2010, the Company had $136.6million of British pound-denominated loans, which are designated as a hedge against the net investment in foreign subsidiaries acquired in 2004 and 2003. At March31, 2010, the Company had $67.5million of Euro-denominated loans, which were designated as a hedge against the net investment in a foreign subsidiary acquired in 2005. As a result of these British pound- and Euro-denominated loans being designated and effective as net investment hedges, $12.9million of currency remeasurement gains have been included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income at March31, 2010. |

Fourth Quarter of 2008 Restructuring Charges and Asset Write-Downs [Abstract] | |
Fourth Quarter of 2008 Restructuring Charges and Asset Write-Downs | 6. Fourth Quarter of 2008 Restructuring Charges and Asset Write-Downs During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company recorded pre-tax charges totaling $40.0 million, which had the effect of reducing net income by $27.3million ($0.25 per diluted share). These charges include restructuring costs for employee reductions and facility closures ($32.6 million), as well as asset write-downs ($7.4million). The charges included $30.1million for severance costs for more than 10% of the Companys workforce and $1.5million for lease termination costs associated with the closure of certain facilities. Of the $40.0million in charges, $32.9million of the restructuring charges and asset write-downs were recorded in cost of sales and $7.1million of the restructuring charges and asset write-downs were recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses. The restructuring charges and asset write-downs were reported in 2008 segment operating income as follows: $20.4million in Electronic Instruments Group (EIG), $19.4 million in Electromechanical Group (EMG) and $0.2million in Corporate administrative and other expenses. The restructuring costs for employee reductions and facility closures relate to plans established by the Company in 2008 as part of cost reduction initiatives that were broadly implemented across the Companys various businesses during fiscal 2009. The restructuring costs resulted from the consolidation of manufacturing facilities, the migration of production to low cost locales and a general reduction in workforce in response to lower levels of expected sales volumes in certain of the Companys businesses. The following table provides a rollforward of the remaining accruals established in the fourth quarter of 2008 for restructuring charges and asset write-downs: Restructuring Severance Facility Closures Total (In millions) Restructuring accruals at December31, 2009 $ 12.2 $ 1.0 $ 13.2 Utilization (1.5 ) (0.2 ) (1.7 ) Foreign currency translation and other (0.5 ) (0.5 ) Restructuring accruals at March31, 2010 $ 10.2 $ 0.8 $ 11.0 |
