21 March 2006:- Verity Systems the world’s leading developer and manufacturer of degaussers and bulk tape erasers today announced the launch of the V6000 HDD Max degausser. The V6000 HDD Max is a state-of-the-art one pass conveyor degausser designed for the volume erasure of hard drives.

The vulnerability of information stored on PC hard drives is a recognized security risk. Unlike other PC data storage media the hard drive always stays with the PC. Every time a PC leaves a company's control all the data and company information will go with it. Even if the hard drive breaks down, the storage platters will still contain information which could be read once repaired. The V6000 HDD Max alleviates all these problems.

The specially designed high intensity coils of the V6000 HDD Max ensure complete erasure of hard drives in large quantities, perfect for IT logistic and security providers.

The performance of the V6000 HDD Max will satisfy requirements for large volumes of hard disk drives to be erased. Hard drives are placed on the belt and guided through the 5000 gauss erasure field. Up to 300 hard drives can be erased per hour meeting the demands of small and large scale degaussing operations.

Safety
With safety in mind and to meet the latest ICNIRP Magnetic Exposure Guidelines, the V6000 HDD Max can be operated remotely via an umbilical button.
