DeMAG Super Degausser

DeMAG Super Degausser

The DeMAG Super Degausser is a high-security, automatic data erasure solution designed to completely destroy information stored on magnetic media. Delivering more than 40,000 gauss, the DeMAG achieves total magnetic erasure with industry-leading speed and reliability. By using state-of-the-art multi-pulse technology, it quickly neutralizes data on hard disk drives, backup tapes, and other magnetic storage without requiring manual intervention. The system’s internal automated process ensures every piece of media inserted into the media slot is handled with precision—making accidental oversight virtually impossible. For those requiring compliance with the strictest industry mandates regarding customer data and media data destruction, DeMAG is specifically engineered to meet and exceed those requirements.

Who Should Use the DeMAG?

If you handle sensitive information or regularly retire old hardware, the DeMAG is essential. This degausser is ideal for data centers, governmental organizations, recycling and refurbishment facilities, financial institutions, technology refurbishers, and any organization maintaining regulatory compliance under standards like GDPR, HIPAA, or NIST SP 800-88r1. Whether your goal is secure hdd recycling, a general data protection regulation (GDPR) compliant workflow, or simply a simple decommissioning process utilizing advanced technology, DeMAG offers tailored, error-free results.

Key Features of the DeMAG

40,000+ Gauss Magnetic Erasure

Achieve deep-level erasure with unmatched security. The DeMAG’s ultra-high magnetic field neutralizes all magnetic domains in less than a minute, leaving data on hdd disk platters, tapes, and other storage unrecoverable by any known method.

Advanced Multi-Pulse Technology

Unlike single-shot systems, the DeMAG’s multi-pulse design applies a precisely controlled sequence of magnetic fields at varying orientations. This advanced approach ensures even the densest rare earth magnets within drives are fully demagnetized, facilitating easier component separation and disassembly processes later.

High-Speed Operation: ~30 Seconds Per Drive

In high-volume workflows, speed is critical. The DeMAG’s cycle time of around 30 seconds per media unit ensures that large-scale decommissioning processes remain efficient, scalable, and consistent.

Automatic and Hands-Free Workflow

Place your hard drive, tape, or other device into the dedicated media slot and let the internal automated system do the rest. This guarantees optimal magnet handling efficiency and removes any risk of skipped steps, even under repetitive, automated systems.

Optional IRONCLAD Verification System

For enhanced audit trails, you can upgrade DeMAG with the IRONCLAD visual erasure reporting system. This provides photographic proof and digital logs showing each media’s successful erasure—vital for maintaining regulatory records and compliance with industry standards such as those enforced by the NSA, HIPAA, or DoD.

Eco-Conscious Design for Neodymium Magnet Demagnetization

Modern hard drives contain rare earth elements that are valuable for recycling. The DeMAG’s process safely demagnetizes these strong neodymium magnets, helping to reduce e-waste and ensuring the valuable internal components can be recovered during the next phase of device recycling.

Why Choose the DeMAG Super Degausser?

Meets Top Data Security Standards

The DeMAG system is engineered to help you conform with the strictest data erasure frameworks, including:

• NSA (National Security Agency)
• DoD (Department of Defense)
• HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
• GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
• NIST SP 800-88r1

With the DeMAG, you can prove your company gathers customer data and disposes of it following internationally recognized regulations, with documented audit trails to protect your organization.

Proven Performance in Secure Environments

DeMAG is not theoretical—it is relied upon in highly secure, real-world contexts. Data centers and government facilities count on this technology for reliable, repeatable data destruction and media data destruction, both as a primary erasure method and as part of a larger decommissioning process.

Ideal for Data Centers, Government, and Recycling Facilities

Whether you operate a facility specializing in hard drive recycling, are responsible for decommissioning high-security servers, or need a scalable platform for disposing of end-of-life devices, DeMAG integrates seamlessly into any high-volume, security-focused workflow.

Pair with DiskMantler for Full Hard Drive Recycling

Step 1: Use DeMAG for Complete Data Erasure

Start your hdd recycling operation by ensuring total data destruction. The DeMAG erases every magnetic trace while demagnetizing components for easier downstream processing.

Step 2: Feed the Drive into DiskMantler for Disassembly

Where recycling is required, DiskMantler picks up immediately after degaussing. The device disassembles hard drives to safely separate hdd disk platters, circuit boards, rare earth magnets, and other valuable internal components without labor-intensive handling.

Step 3: Recycle High-Value Materials with Minimal Waste

With media already demagnetized, component separation is dramatically streamlined. Precious materials can be reclaimed, supporting sustainable practices and minimizing residue—far more efficient than melting methods or physical shredders alone.

Environmentally Friendly Data Destruction

Reduces E-Waste and Promotes Resource Recovery

By facilitating the clean removal of magnetic fields, DeMAG unlocks new pathways for recovering raw materials embedded in drives and tapes. This reduces environmental impact and promotes responsible, eco-conscious end-of-life processing.

Demagnetizes Internal Magnets for Easier Disassembly

During disassembly, lingering magnetism can prevent the effective recovery of rare earth magnets and metallic components. The DeMAG’s process neutralizes these fields, enabling safer, simpler, and more complete recycling.

Scalable and Automation-Ready

Supports Conveyor Belts and Robotics

Scale up operations with minimal human input. The DeMAG’s robust architecture readily incorporates into conveyor-driven and robotic workflows, making it automation-ready for industrial or enterprise-level data destruction needs.

Built for High-Volume Workflows

Engineered for continuous use, the DeMAG keeps pace with demanding facility requirements—whether integrated with your internal automated system or used as a standalone station for smaller teams.

Technical Specifications

Magnetic Field Strength: 40,000+ Gauss

Continuous, consistent high-level field for maximum data annihilation.

Cycle Time: Approximately 30 Seconds

Fast throughput keeps you productive with no compromise to quality.

Operation: Automatic Insertion and Processing

No manual steps necessary—just insert media and proceed to the next piece.

Optional: IRONCLAD Visual Erasure Reporting

Enhance documentation with visual proof and secure logs for every destroyed item.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it work on SSDs?

No, the DeMAG Super Degausser is purpose-built for HDDs, tapes, and magnetic media. SSDs lack magnetic domains and require different data destruction methods.

What makes it different from physical destruction methods?

Physical shredders or melting methods destroy hardware but often leave sensitive data on media. The DeMAG erases data at the source—along with demagnetizing internal magnets for safer, easier component separation—offering a simple decommissioning process utilizing non-destructive steps before recycling.

What is IRONCLAD verification and do I need it?

IRONCLAD is an optional reporting system that generates photographic and digital documentation for each erased unit. It is crucial for regulatory audits and organizations needing strict tracking of their data destruction processes.

How scalable is the system for larger facilities?

Highly scalable—DeMAG readily connects to conveyor belts, automatic loaders, and robotic arms for fully automated, high-throughput workflows. Whether you manage hundreds or thousands of drives, DeMAG can be tailored to your output volume.
