The Garner CDS-2500A Professional Degausser is designed to erase all formats of media that are less than 6 inches in width. The degaussing field strength switch provides the option to change between high and low field strengths. It is like having two degaussers in one. On low, the CDS-2500A is a continuous duty degausser capable of degaussing over 90 VHS tapes per minute without overheating. On high, the CDS-2500A is a high-energy degausser capable of erasing the newest metal tape formats of up to 2400 oersteds.

To start erasing, simply press the "on" button and place the media on the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt will transport the media through the strong horizontal and vertical degaussing fields produced by two degaussing coils placed at 90 degrees from each other ("V" coil design). For added convenience, the conveyor belt speed can be easily adjusted up to 60 feet per minute. At this rate, the CDS-2500A will erase more than 90 VHS tapes per minute. For more efficiency, add the optional FH-4 feed hopper.

MS-25 Magnetic Shield Option:

For customers requiring an enclosed degaussing station, we have designed a magnetic shield (shown below) that completely encloses the conveyor belt and magnetic fields. The MS-25 magnetic shield option reduces the magnetic field surrounding the degausser below the threshold limit values specified by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH).

To assist with the loading and unloading of media with the MS-25 magnetic shield in place, Garner has developed an input (IS-CDS) and an output (OS-CDS) slide as shown below.

FH-4 Feed Hopper Option: The Garner Model FH-4 is an automatic cassette feed hopper that attaches to the Garner CDS-2500A degausser. This low cost option dramatically increases the speed and simplicity of erasing large quantities of media. While the FH-4 was originally designed for VHS cassettes, the FH-4 can be adjusted to fit many other formats as well. Made of stainless steel, the FH-4 is rugged, designed for continuous use, and is easily installed using existing hardware.
