Degaussing Control

Degaussing Control refers to the equipment or systems used to control the process of degaussing in Degaussing and Mine Sweeping Equipment. Degaussing is a technique used to reduce or eliminate the magnetic field of a ship or submarine to make it less susceptible to magnetic mines.

The Degaussing Control system typically includes various components such as sensors, power supplies, control panels, and monitoring devices. These components work together to measure the magnetic field of the vessel and adjust the degaussing system accordingly.

The purpose of the Degaussing Control system is to ensure that the degaussing process is properly calibrated and maintained. It allows for the precise adjustment of the magnetic field strength to counteract any changes that may occur due to factors such as changes in the ship's structure or the addition of new equipment.

By controlling the degaussing process, the Degaussing Control system helps to ensure the effectiveness of the degaussing system in protecting the vessel against magnetic mines. It is an essential component of Degaussing and Mine Sweeping Equipment in the Weapons supply group.
