Carte Weigand. Contient une série de fils parallèles enchâssés dans sa moitié inférieure. Il s'agit de fils ferromagnétiques qui produisent un changement soudain de flux magnétique lorsqu'ils sont exposés à un lent changement du champ magnétique. On peut conférer une valeur logique (0 ou 1) à chaque fil en plaçant la carte dans la position appropriée par rapport à l'aimant de réarmement et aux bobines de détection du lecteur de cartes. Les densimètres de ce genre ne peuvent être effacés accidentellement. En outre, il est difficile de les modifier ou de les reproduire (Protection of Assets Manual, volume 1, section 8-27). Ils coûtent environ 6 $ l'unité. 1, record 12, French, - carte%20Weigan
