Verity SV91M Degausser
commercially available
Product description Designed to erase a range of magnetic media including high density metal tapes and cassettes, the Verity Systems SV91M meets the requirements. The SV91M takes ten seconds to completely erase a cassette. It's simple-to-use and compact table top operation provides a thoroughly effective and low cost means of degaussing Betacam SP, D2, Mll, DAT, 8mm and other high coercivity tapes.

Media Erased: Broadcast and video cassettes - All oxide and metal particle

Reels: All formats up to 16" diameter including 2" Pancakes up to 16" diameter"

Data: All computer backup cartridges, computer reels, diskettes - single/boxed PC hard drives

Notes The SEAP 8500 Degaussing Standard has now been withdrawn and replaced with the CESG Degaussing Standard . This new Standard has two levels of degaussing:

Lower Level - for RESTRICTED and below.

Higher Level - for CONFIDENTIAL and above.

The Verity SV91M degausser is CESG 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 SV91M 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).

The SV91M 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).
