Une tête magnétique est constituée par un bobinage enroulé sur un noyau en tôles magnétiques qui ne conservent pas d'aimantation rémanente. Néanmoins, au bout d'un grand nombre d'heures d'utilisation, il est possible que la tête devienne légèrement aimantée. Il faut dans ce cas la désaimanter à l'aide d'un appareil spécial appelé «démagnétiseur» ... Si l'on continue à passer des bandes magnétiques sur un magnétophone dont les têtes conservent une certaine aimantation, on constate un manque de fréquences aiguës, une augmentation du bruit de fond et surtout, l'on risque d'effacer partiellement l'enregistrement existant sur la bande. 2, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9magn%C3%A9tiseur

The Dines Pressure Tube Anemometer is universally recognised as the most reliable and accurate instrument of its kind and has been adopted as standard by the British Meteorological Office and by meteorological stations world-wide. Dines Pressure Tube Anemometer consists essentially of a Head Assembly, a Velocity Recorder and a Direction Recorder, the IM100 records wind speed and wind direction simultaneously on a single chart. An important feature of the Dines, is that it records not only average wind velocity over a given time, but also variations in wind force, with the strength and frequency of gusts, providing valuable data on the internal structure of the wind. 2, record 7, English, - Dines%20anemometer
Record number: 7, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The suction head is mounted concentrically with the shaft, near the bearing that supports the vane, and develops a suction that is independent of wind direction. The pressure difference between the suction head and the pressure head is proportional to the square root of the wind speed and is measured by a specially designed float manometer with a linear wind scale. 3, record 7, English, - Dines%20anemometer
Record number: 7, Textual support number: 3 CONT
The Dines anemometer was first described by William Henry Dines in 1892 and had all the essentials of the final form of the pressure-tube anemometer. With various modifications, the Dines anemometer remained a useful wind measuring device into the 1960s. 3, record 7, English, - Dines%20anemometer
