Description of HSM Securio C18 Cross Cut Shredder
Simple operation is the key for any home or personal office, and the HSM Securio C18 P-4 cross cut paper shredder delivers. After switching on the unit, simply begin feeding your documents and the unit will automatically begin shredding. The unit will then automatically stop once the last sheet is detected. Shredding between 10-11 sheets at a time, the HSM Securio C18 cuts your documents into 5/32" x 1" cross cut particles. In total, the Securio C18 produces an incredible 603 confetti-cut particles per page. For those eager to feed more than the accepted sheet capacity, a paper jam is inevitable. These jams can be easily eradicated with the JamStop Anti-Jam technology. When a jam is detected, this Securio model automatically switches into reverse mode until the jam is fixed. The P-4 model not only handles paper, but also accessory items such as staples and paper clips, as well as credit cards. The 100% solid steel cutting cylinder tears through your documents and materials with ease.
The C18 is the first of the Securio's to offer a control element with visual cues for operational status. Surrounding the power button the user will find symbols for bin open, bin full, and paper jam. If operation stops, the user can determine the cause with just a glance. Even the removable 6.6 gallon waste bin features front inspection window for easy monitoring.
The HSM Securio C18 while not a high volume shredder, still has the same capabilities and features as many of the high volume, commercial shredders. Weighing in at 11.4 lbs., the Securio C18 offers dimensions of 11 1/3" D x 14 2/5" W x 21 1/3" H. Although a small unit, this shredder offers some of HSM's most popular features. Power saving mode, or Zero Energy Stand-by, ensures the user that no power is consumed while the unit is in stand-by mode. In addition to energy savings, the HSM Securio offers " Whisper Shred" technology, which reduces operational noise to a whisper. For home or personal offices, the HSM Securio C18 delivers consistent results and includes several beneficial features.
