Return to Degaussers Summary Page
The Eliminator 4000FS is a belt-driven Degausser specifically engineered to erase high-coercivity Hard Disk Drives, Super DLT tape, and DLT IV tape. It automatically erases hard disk drives using the new "Turn-A-Drive" Carrier. These super-high coercivity disk drive and tape formats - 2000 oersteds and increasing - are very difficult to erase. Conventional tape erasers just can't do it.
The Eliminator 4000FS erases hard disks completely and metal particle tape to -80dB (like new) in 12 seconds or less. Security operations can now completely degauss hard disk drives in large volumes. Data centers can save money by erasing and reusing their DLT and Super DLT tape. Program integrity is not sacrificed, because the Eliminator 4000FS provides like-new erasure quality.
The world's leading tape manufacturers recommend the Eliminator 4000FS. This is because it features patented technology that eliminates excessive heating of metal disk drive parts (they remain cold) and cassette parts and reels that can damage tape. And this is done without compromising erasure quality.
The Eliminator 4000FS will erase all magnetic media up to 2300 oersted metal particle tape: Hard Disks, Super DLT, DLT IV, one-inch reels, VHS, U-Matic, S-VHS, MII, D1, D2, D3, D5, 4MM, 8MM, HI 8, DAT, DIGITAL BETACAM SP, DVCAM, DVCPRO, DIGITAL-S, HDTV and MIRROR MOTHER.
The popular Eliminator 4000FS digital tape Degausser includes electro-magnetic field (EMF) shielding as a standard feature. The specially designed internal shielding reduces radiated EMFs by more than fifty-percent. The simple to operate machine is the first conveyor belt style bulk
Degausser to offer EMF shielding. Now bulk Degausser users can greatly reduce their exposure to EMFs without compromising tape erasing quality or productivity.
Options: The EMF shielding kit, available for older 4000 units to upgrade the machine, costs
an additional $550.00

* NOTE 1: DO NOT DEGAUSS
This product has factory prerecorded
magnetic servo tracks. The media will be unusable, if the servo tracks are bulk erased (degaussed). Products that use factory prerecorded magnetic servo signals should not be degaussed unless destruction of the recording media is desired.
