P-5 caps particle area at 30 mm², and a 2 x 15 mm particle is exactly 30 mm² — it sits precisely on the boundary of the band, not comfortably inside it. Getting there costs throughput: 28 to 32 sheets a pass, against 65 to 70 for the P-4 version of the same cabinet. You are paying roughly half your sheet rate for one security level.

The trade-off is stated plainly on HSM's own datasheet: throughput falls to 90–100 sheets per pass, against 510–550 for the P-2 version of the identical chassis. If your destruction policy names P-5, this is the FA 500.3 to specify.
