Proton T-1.2 overview

The Proton T-1.2 is a drawer-style degausser that permanently erases data from hard drives and various tape media, making the data forensically unrecoverable. It produces an effective magnetic field of 1.2 Tesla and meets U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) requirements for sanitising unclassified data.

It has an effective magnetic field of 1.2 Tesla, and meets U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) requirements for sanitizing unclassified data.

Operation of the Proton T-1.2 is simple; just insert media into the drawer and push the start button. The oversized drawer can accommodate multiple full sized hard drives, and can even degauss server hard drives with the brackets/sleds still on. The large LCD touchscreen displays the magnetic field strength of every cycle to guarantee top performance. Compact and portable, the Proton T-1.2 can easily fit into existing operations and be transported when needed.

Proton T-1.2 in India — supply, service and compliance

  • The LCD touchscreen gives your audit team a per-cycle field-strength record — very useful when a bank or regulator asks for evidence of the sanitisation step.
  • Popular with ITAD and e-waste recyclers in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune and NCR who process hundreds of drives a week.
  • Available with a deployment case for on-site destruction at customer premises across India.

Options and accessories

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions Indian buyers ask most often. Cannot find yours? Call us — we answer technical questions on the phone.

T-1.2 or T-1.5 — which should I buy?
The T-1.2 is the value pick for high-volume commercial work. Choose the T-1.5 if you handle very high-coercivity modern drives (5 TB+ enterprise SAS) or need the shortest possible cycle time.
Can one drawer load hold several drives?
Yes. The oversized drawer is designed for multiple full-size hard drives, and will even take server drives with their sleds or brackets still fitted.
Is it portable for on-site work?
The unit is compact and portable. An optional wheeled deployment case is available for field destruction at customer sites.
