INTRODUCTION
The Garner Products, Inc. Model TS-1 is a continuous duty capacitive discharge
degausser. The TS-1 is designed to erase hard drives and tape cartridges that fit inside
the drawer. The convenient drawer loading design accommodates many different types
and sizes of media, without the need for adapters.
MAGNETIC FIELDS
Magnetic fields measured around perimeter
The TS-1 produces a single focused magnetic pulse lasting less than 1/20 of a second.
The focused intensity allows the TS-1 to erase today’s highest coercivity media while
also limiting the magnetic field exposure to 1 second for every 20 pieces of media
degaussed.
Distance from
degausser Magnetic Field
(Front Panel) Magnetic Field
(Side) Duration of Field
0cm (0 inches) 1320 gauss 68 gauss < 0.05 Second
10cm (4 inches) 440 gauss 22 gauss < 0.05 Second
20cm (8 inches) 145 gauss 8 gauss < 0.05 Second
30cm (12 inches) 49 gauss 3 gauss < 0.05 Second
Note: The testing room measured 0.4 gauss before degausser was plugged in.
Average Operational Distance (AOD) from user to the TS-1 is 12-18 inches (30-45cm).
According to the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH)
Threshold Limit Values (2005) - Static Magnetic Fields, whole body exposure limits
recommended for an 8 hour shift are 600 gauss. Because of the short duration of each
pulse from the TS-1 (1/20th* of a second) and the extremely small magnetic field outside
of the unit (<49 gauss, AOD) the total 8 hour whole body exposure is 1/800th of the
recommended limit.
*Pulse duration was rounded to ½ second per discharge for calculations to cover any build up of
magnetic fields generated before or after discharge.
PACE MAKER USERS: WARNING
Due to stray magnetic fields, consult your physician before operating.

TS-1 Operation and Installation Manual Page 5
INSTALLATION
All trouble shooting and wiring checks must be performed by a
qualified electrician or authorized plant personnel.
Power Requirements
It is important to ensure correct power is applied to the degausser. Unless otherwise
specified and noted on the power specification label on the back of the TS-1, the TS-1 is
factory configured for 120VAC. Check the power specifications label to ensure the
factory configured TS-1 input voltage is configured to match the voltage from the power
mains the TS-1 will plug into. Call Garner Products, Inc. if the voltage listed is not
compatible with your voltage or if you have any questions. International customers call
011 916 784-0200.
Line Voltage Selection Reference
The Line Voltage Selection Reference is a guide for configuring the voltage jumper to
the correct tap of the transformer. This allows the TS-1 to be used world wide under a
variety of voltages. For detailed instruction please see the “Input Voltage Configuration”
section of this manual.
All trouble shooting and wiring checks must be performed by a
qualified electrician or authorized plant personnel.
TS-1 Operation and Installation Manual Page 6
Input Voltage Configuration WARNING
The TS-1 model is equipped with a voltage selection block allowing the TS-1 to be
configured for use in any country.
To check or change the voltage configuration of the TS-1, follow the steps listed below:
All trouble shooting and wiring checks must be performed by a
qualified electrician or authorized plant personnel.
If you are installing the TS-1 for the first time, or if the TS-1 has moved to a new
location, confirm the input power setting of the TS-1 is configured to match the power at
your location**.
**If the power at your location is prone to voltage sag, the TS-1 may/will report a
“CHARGE ERROR” fault. This is an operational feature designed to ensure the
degausser will only operate when an optimal charge condition is present. If the
charge error fault persists when the power is known to be stable, call customer
support.
Changing the Voltage Configuration
Step 1 Un-plug the TS-1 from the power mains.
Step 2 Loosen and remove the Power Selection Panel
from the rear panel. (4) T-20 Torx Screws
Step 3 Move the (brown) power selection wire (located on
the right side of the fuse block) to the appropriate
tap/fuse on the right side of the fuse block. The
picture below shows the brown wire on the
120VAC connector.
Step 4 Replace the Power Selection Panel.
TS-1 Operation and Installation Manual Page 7
Power Plug
Plug the EIA connector attached to the power cord supplied into the receptacle on
the back of the TS-1.
Fuse Block
Located behind the removable panel on the front side of the TS-1, there are six
separate fuses, one each for 100, 110, 120, 220, 230 & 240 VAC power. Only one
fuse is used at a time. Therefore, for any voltage range, the two unused fuses of
the same value can be used as spares.
Location
The degausser must be placed on a flat, hard surface. Keep at least a 6 inch
(15cm) distance from any object that may interfere with the cooling fan exhaust
located on the backside of the degausser. As a general rule, media not intending
to be erased should be kept about 60cm (2 feet) away.
Cooling
Forced air-cooling is used to maintain safe operating temperatures within the
degausser. The air intake and exhaust are located on the back panel. To ensure
proper cooling, do not block the air-intake or exhaust and maintain at least a 15cm
(6 inches) distance from the back of the degausser to any obstacle.

long as the drawer closes freely and completely.
Step 4 Press the “Erase” button.
Note: After approximately 45 seconds, the LCD will read
“Erase Successful Remove Media” indicating that the media
has been degaussed and is ready for removal from the
media drawer.
Step 5 Remove media by lifting up and sliding out the drawer.
Step 6 Insert another hard drive or turn the power off and close the
drawer.
Degaussing Instructions for DLT Media:
Remove the plastic protective cases. Simply follow the degaussing instructions above
for complete erasure.
Note: For DLT media that is to be re-used.
Although the data is completely degaussed in one operation, a second pass rotated at
90 degrees is required to smooth out any magnetic fluctuation. Note: If the second
pass is not completed, the tape drive may eject the tape from the tape drive and
indicate that the tape needs cleaning. The second pass at 90 degrees will correct this
condition.
