1995 - Parts I, II, and IV.

     Proxy Statement for Annual Meeting of Shareholders dated

                            PART I

Item 1.                    BUSINESS

     (a) General Development of Business.

      The  Perkin-Elmer Corporation was incorporated  in  1939
under  the laws of the State of New York.  Together  with  its
consolidated   subsidiaries,  The   Perkin-Elmer   Corporation
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "Registrant"  or  the
"Corporation") develops, manufactures, and sells  products  in
the industry segment described in sub-item (c) below.

      On February 18, 1993, the shareholders of Registrant and
Applied  Biosystems,  Inc. ("ABI"), a  supplier  of  automated
systems  for  life science research and related  applications,
approved  the  merger of a subsidiary of Registrant  with  and
into  ABI  which  resulted  in  ABI  becoming  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of  Registrant.  Effective July 1, 1994,  ABI  was
merged  into  Registrant  and is now  the  Applied  Biosystems
division of Registrant.

      On  April 18, 1994, Registrant entered into an agreement
with  Sulzer  Inc.  to  sell  its  Material  Sciences  segment
consisting  of  its Metco Division ("Metco") headquartered  in
Westbury,  New  York.   Registrant  completed  the   sale   on
September 30, 1994.

      The  consolidated  financial  statements  and  schedules
reflect  the  merger with ABI as a pooling  of  interests  and
present  the  Corporation's Material  Sciences  segment  as  a
discontinued operation.

     On May 18, 1993, Registrant amended its By-laws to change
Registrant's fiscal year end from July 31 to June  30.   Prior
to  fiscal  year  1993, the financial statements  of  ABI  and
Registrant's subsidiaries outside the United States  were  for
the   years   ended  June  30,  while  Registrant's   domestic
operations were reported on a July 31 fiscal year end.

     (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.

     Registrant is engaged in one business segment,  which  is
generally  described  as analytical instruments  and  includes
life science systems.  Accordingly, separate segment financial
information is not provided.

                            -1-




(c) Narrative Description of Business.

BUSINESS

      Registrant develops, manufactures, markets,  sells,  and
services  analytical  instrument systems.   Included  in  this
industry   segment   are  biochemical  analytical   instrument
systems,  consisting of instruments and associated  consumable
products,  for life science research and related applications.
These automated systems are used for synthesis, amplification,
purification,  isolation, analysis and sequencing  of  nucleic
acids, proteins, and other biological molecules.

     This industry segment also includes analytical instrument
systems   for   determining  the  composition  and   molecular
structure  of chemical substances (both organic and inorganic)
and  measuring  the concentration of materials  in  a  sample.
These  instruments  include:  spectrophotometers  utilizing  a
number    of    analytical   techniques;   gas   and    liquid
chromatographs; thermal analyzers; thermal cyclers; analytical
balances;   flame  photometers;  polarimeters;   data-handling
devices  that are principally designed for use with analytical
instruments;  and data systems for applications in  analytical
chemistry.    In   a   joint   venture,   Perkin-Elmer   Sciex
Instruments, Registrant is engaged in the manufacture and sale
of  mass  spectrometry  instrument systems.   Registrant  also
develops,  manufactures, markets, and services  on-line,  real
time, process analysis systems to monitor process quality  and
environmental purity.

      Registrant's  instruments are used by private  industry,
educational   and  research  institutions,  and   governmental
entities   for   fundamental  research,   applied   industrial
research, quality control, medical research, hospital clinical
testing,   pollution   analysis,  drug   identification,   and
forensics.

MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

      In  the  United States, Registrant markets  the  largest
portion  of  its products directly through its own  sales  and
distribution   organization,   although   certain   analytical
instruments are marketed through independent distributors  and
sales representatives.  Sales to major markets outside of  the
United  States are generally made by the Registrant's  foreign
based  sales and service staff, although some sales  are  made
directly  from  the  United States to foreign  customers.   In
certain  foreign  countries, sales are  made  through  various
representative  and distributorship arrangements.   Registrant
owns or leases sales and service offices in strategic regional
locations  in  the  United States, and  in  foreign  countries
through   its  foreign  sales  subsidiaries  and  distribution
operations.   None  of  Registrant's products  is  distributed
through retail outlets.

RAW MATERIALS

       There  are  no  specialized  raw  materials  that   are
particularly   essential  to  the  operation  of  Registrant's
business.   Registrant's manufacturing  operations  require  a
wide  variety  of  raw  materials, electronic  and  mechanical
components,  chemical  and biochemical  materials,  and  other
supplies, some of which are occasionally found to be in  short
supply.   Registrant has multiple commercial sources for  most
components and supplies but is dependent on single sources for
a  limited  number  of  such items, in which  case  Registrant
normally secures long-term supply contracts.

                             -2-




PATENTS, LICENSES, AND FRANCHISES
      Registrant  has  pursued a policy  of  seeking  patent
protection  in  the  United States and other  countries  for
developments,   improvements,  and  inventions   originating
within   its   organization  which   are   incorporated   in
Registrant's  products or which fall within  its  fields  of
interest.  Certain licenses under patents have been  granted
to,  and  received  from,  other entities.   Registrant  has
certain  rights  from Hoffmann-La Roche Inc.  under  patents
relating  to  polymerase chain reaction technology  ("PCR"),
which  patents expire in 2004.  Registrant also  has  rights
under  a  patent  issued  to  the  California  Institute  of
Technology relating to DNA sequencing, which patent  expires
in  2009.  In Registrant's opinion, however, no other single
patent  or license, or group of patents or licenses, or  any
franchise, is material to its business as a whole.

      From  time to time, Registrant has asserted that various
competitors and others are infringing Registrant's patents and
similarly,  from  time  to  time, others  have  asserted  that
Registrant  was infringing patents owned by them.   Generally,
such  claims are settled by mutual agreement on a satisfactory
basis and result in the granting of licenses by Registrant  or
the granting of licenses to Registrant.

SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS

      Registrant's  business  is  not  subject  to  pronounced
seasonal fluctuations.

BACKLOG

      Registrant's recorded backlog was $167.0 million at June
30,  1995  and  $154.5  million  at  June  30,  1994.   It  is
Registrant's  general  policy  to  include  in  backlog   only
purchase  orders  or  production  releases  which  have   firm
delivery  dates  within one year.  Recorded  backlog  may  not
result in sales because of cancellation or other factors.   It
is anticipated that all orders included in the current backlog
will be delivered before the close of fiscal year 1996.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT SALES

      No  material portion of Registrant's business is subject
to  renegotiation of profits or termination  of  contracts  or
subcontracts at the election of the United States Government.

COMPETITION

      The  industry  segment in which Registrant  operates  is
highly competitive and is characterized by the application  of
advanced  technology.   There  are  numerous  companies  which
specialize in, and a number of larger companies which devote a
significant  portion of their resources to,  the  development,
manufacture,  and  sale of products which compete  with  those
manufactured  or  sold  by Registrant.  Many  of  Registrant's
competitors are well-known manufacturers with a high degree of
technical   proficiency.    In   addition,   competition    is
intensified by the ever-changing nature of the technologies in
the  industry in which Registrant is engaged.  The markets for
Registrant's   products  are  characterized   by   specialized
manufacturers that often have strength in narrow  segments  of
these markets.  While the absence of reliable statistics makes
it   difficult  to  determine  Registrant's  relative   market
position,  Registrant is confident it is one of the  principal
manufacturers  in  its  field,  marketing  a  broad  line   of
analytical instruments and life science systems.  In  addition
to  competing  in  terms  of  the technology  that  Registrant
offers,  Registrant competes in terms of price,  service,  and
quality.
                             -3-





RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, AND ENGINEERING

      Registrant  is  actively engaged in  basic  and  applied
research,  development, and engineering programs  designed  to
develop new products and to improve existing products.  During
fiscal  years  1995,  1994, and 1993, Registrant  spent  $95.1
million,  $94.2  million, and $83.8 million, respectively,  on
company   sponsored  research,  development,  and  engineering
activities.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

      Registrant is subject to federal, state, and local  laws
and regulations regulating the discharge of materials into the
environment,  or otherwise relating to the protection  of  the
environment, in those jurisdictions where Registrant  operates
or  maintains  facilities.  Registrant does not  believe  that
compliance  with  all  environmental provisions  will  have  a
material  effect  on  its business, and  no  material  capital
expenditures are expected for environmental control.

EMPLOYEES

      As  of  June 30, 1995, Registrant employed 5,890 persons
worldwide.   None of Registrant's United States  employees  is
subject to collective bargaining agreements.

      (d)  Financial  Information About Foreign  and  Domestic
Operations and Export Sales.

      A  summary  of  net revenues to unaffiliated  customers,
operating income, and identifiable assets attributable to each
of  Registrant's  geographic areas and export  sales  for  the
fiscal  years  1995, 1994, and 1993 is incorporated herein  by
reference  to  Note 6 on Pages 38-39 of the Annual  Report  to
Shareholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.

      Registrant's  consolidated net revenues to  unaffiliated
customers  in countries other than the United States  for  the
fiscal  years 1995, 1994, and 1993 were $669.8 million, $606.7
million,  and  $606.8  million, or 63.0%,  59.2%,  and  60.0%,
respectively, of Registrant's consolidated net revenues.

      All of the Registrant's manufacturing facilities outside
of  the continental United States are located in Germany,  the
United  Kingdom, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,  Japan,  and
the Peoples Republic of China.  The manufacturing facility  in
Puerto  Rico  is expected to be closed by December  31,  1995.
There  are currently no material foreign exchange controls  or
similar limitations restricting the repatriation to the United
States  of  capital  or earnings from operations  outside  the
United States.


     (e)  Discontinued Operations.

     On  September 30, 1994, Registrant sold Metco, comprising
its  Material Sciences segment, headquartered in Westbury, New
York  to  Sulzer  Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary  of  Sulzer,
Ltd.,  Winterthur,  Switzerland.  The  consolidated  financial
statements   and   schedules  present  Registrant's   Material
Sciences segment as a discontinued operation.

term basis, and the facility in San Jose and a portion of  the
remaining facility in Wilton are leased on a short-term basis.


Item 3.                    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The Corporation has been named as a defendant in various
legal  actions arising from the conduct of its normal business
activities.  Although the amount of any liability  that  might
arise  with  respect  to  any  of  these  matters  cannot   be
accurately  predicted, the resulting liability, if  any,  will
not,  in  the  opinion  of management of  Registrant,  have  a
material   adverse   effect  on  the  consolidated   financial
statements of Registrant.

                             -5-




     Registrant  is  one  of  approximately  125  third  party
defendants named in a third party complaint dated February 19,
1993  in  United States of America v. Davis et al.,  which  is
pending  in the United States District Court for the  District
of  Rhode Island.  The third party plaintiffs, who were  named
as  defendants  and  potentially responsible  parties  in  the
Government's  initial complaint, sought equitable contribution
and  indemnification in the event they were found  liable  for
remediation  costs  relating  to  the  removal  of   hazardous
substances  from  a site located in Smithfield,  Rhode  Island
(such  costs initially were estimated by the Government to  be
$27.8  million, but most recent estimates of such costs appear
to  be  in  the $40 million range).  All but one of the  third
party  plaintiffs settled with the Government for a  total  of
approximately $6 million, and a trial on the question  of  the
remaining  third party plaintiff's liability to the Government
resulted  in an April 22, 1995  Memorandum and Order in  which
the   Court   found   such  plaintiff,   United   Technologies
Corporation,  liable  as  a "generator"  of  hazardous  wastes
deposited  at  the  site.   A trial  on  the  amount  of  such
liability currently is scheduled for October 1995.  Until  the
amount  of  liability  of  all of the third  party  plaintiffs
(including  United  Technologies)  has  been  established   by
litigation  or  settlement of that issue, the Court  will  not
consider  the validity of any third party claims.   While  the
Registrant contends that it should have no liability  in  this
case,  because of the uncertainty of all litigation it  cannot
definitively  state that it will incur less than  $100,000  in
monetary liability.


Item 4.             SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF
                       SECURITY HOLDERS

      No  matter was submitted to a vote of security  holders,
through  the solicitation of proxies or otherwise, during  the
fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

                             -6-

Item 5.         MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY
                  AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

     (a) Market Information.

      The  principal  United States market where  Registrant's
Common  Stock  is  traded  is the  New  York  Stock  Exchange,
although  such  stock  is also traded  on  the  Pacific  Stock
Exchange.

persons,  partnerships, associations, corporations,  or  other
entities  identified in security position listings  maintained
by  depositary trust companies.  Note:  the calculation of the
number  of  shares of Registrant's Common Stock held  by  non-
