Frequently Asked Questions
What is an NSA-EPL listed degausser and why does it matter?
NSA-EPL certification means the TS-1XT degausser meets the National Security Agency's Equipment Performance List standards for secure data destruction. This certification is required for organizations handling classified information and is recognized across government, healthcare, and financial sectors as proof of compliant media sanitization.
How does a 20,000 gauss field erase hard drives and tapes?
The magnetic field in the TS-1XT degausser randomizes all magnetic particles on storage media, making data unrecoverable. A 20,000 gauss field is powerful enough to permanently destroy data on both modern hard drives and legacy magnetic tapes in a single pass—faster and more reliable than software-based wiping.
Can the TS-1XT degausser create audit reports for compliance?
Yes. The included SCAN-1X scanner and software package voucher enable you to generate detailed destruction reports for each media unit degaussed. These audit-ready reports document the erasure process and provide proof of compliance for regulatory inspections and internal IT asset management.
What types of media can the hard drive degausser destroy?
The TS-1XT is compatible with hard drives, magnetic tapes, floppy disks, cassettes, and other magnetic storage media. Its universal 20,000 gauss field ensures complete data destruction across all legacy and current magnetic formats.
