This degausser for High Coercivity Tape is designed to erase a broad range of magnetic media, including high-density metal tapes and PC hard disk drives.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has approved this degausser for security erasure applications.

It is fast, taking as little as ten seconds to completely erase a cassette. It’s simple to use and provides a thoroughly effective and low-cost means of degaussing DLT, DAT and other high coercivity tapes.

In addition to its NATO approval, it has been approved by the UK government and meets specified requirements of SEAP (Security Equipment Assessment Panel) and the newer CESG standard for restricted or less for the secure erasure and destruction of information and data stored on magnetic media up to TOP SECRET level.
