Fellowes conducts extensive testing to ensure that these shredders are capable of meeting all of the specifications
listed in the Product Profile (see page 2). However, the actual sheet capacity is dependent on a number of factors
including the type and weight of paper, the humidity, the voltage level of the power source, the temperature of the
motor, and the care with which the operator feeds the paper. Safety agency testing is conducted to ensure that the
shredder will operate to specifications even if the available voltage is 10% below or 6% above the rated voltage.
During this testing 2.5 minutes was taken to empty the basket each time it filled and the following capacities were
used for temperature rise testing:
Cut Size Number Paper Size
Voltage Hertz & Type of Sheets & Weight
220-240VAC 50HZ 3.9mm Strip Cut 17 A4 70g.
220-240VAC 50HZ 5.8mm Strip Cut 19 A4 70g.
220-240VAC 50HZ 3.9mm Confetti Cut 13 A4 70g.
120V 60Hz 5.8mm Strip Cut 19 8.5x11 20 lb.
120V 60Hz 3.9mm Confetti Cut 13 8.5x11 20 lb.
100V 50/60Hz 3.9mm Strip Cut 17 A4 70g.
