- SV90: Automatic
Degausser
The SV90 is able to perform automatic erasure
of high-density magnetic media achieved by applying a highly
focused magnetic field created by the exclusive multi-axis,
'pole tip' design. The tapes or cassettes are placed in the
drawer compartment and rotated within the powerful 7000 Gauss
field ensuring uniform and complete erasure.
The SV90 can cope with a range of media including tapes of up to
16 inches diameter. Up to fifty reels or two hundred cassettes can
be efficiently and quietly erased per hour, the SV90 operates continuously
and is quiet, cool and efficient.
The SV90 degausser is UK government approved to the CESG Degaussing
Standard. This new Standard, which replaces the SEAP 8500 Degaussing
Standard has two levels of degaussing:
Lower Level - for RESTRICTED and below.
Higher Level - for CONFIDENTIAL and above
Currently the SV90 is approved at the Lower Level. This means any
magnetic media (holding RESTRICTED or less) may be regarded as NOT
PROTECTIVELY MARKED after being degaussed.
The SV90 is subject to S(E)N 06/09. which requires all the SEAP-approved
degaussers to be retested against the new CESG Degaussing Standard
(at the Higher Level). At this time, the testing standard is not
yet available.
The SV90 may still be used to degauss magnetic media at CONFIDENTIAL
and above, but the degaussed media is subject to additional handling
requirements (detailed in S(E)N 06/09).
