 Installing the Unit

 

 

The SEM EMP1000/EMP1000-HS pulse degausser was designed to have a small footprint so that it can fit 

onto a countertop or into an area where space is limited. See dimensioned diagram below for space 

requirements. Please note the following: 

 

 

Always mount the unit onto a level surface. 

 

This unit was designed to be used in an office or light industrial environment. 

 

The rear panel of the unit should be kept at a minimum of two inches from any walls or obstructions to 

  allow proper exhaust of air flow from the unit. 
 

The EMP1000/EMP1000-HS is designed with extensive magnetic shielding, so external magnetic fields 

should be very low at the external surfaces of the unit and at zero a few inches beyond that. Other 

equipment may be placed alongside the EMP1000/EMP1000-HS as long as the equipment is not highly 

sensitive to magnetic fields, does not emit a high level of electromagnetic emissions, and does not emit 

any significant level of heat. Please see the Operator Safety section on page 12 of this manual for 

additional information.  

 

Please also note that individuals wearing a pacemaker should not operate this unit.
