HSM SECURIO P36i 1/32 x 7/16 with Metal Detection and Separate OMDD Cutting Unit 2x2mm

HSM builds the 0.78 x 11 mm P-6 SECURIO P36i in two configurations, and this is the one with metal detection fitted alongside the separate 2 x 2 mm OMDD cutting unit. Everything about the destruction is identical to article 1855121M — P-6 paper, 11 to 13 sheets a pass, media reduced to 2 x 2 mm in its own container. The detection hardware is the whole reason to pay the difference.

Key Features

• Metal detection on the paper path, HSM's designated protection against foreign metal reaching a fine cutting head.
• P-6 micro-cut at 0.78 x 11 mm — 8.58 mm² per particle, under both the 10 mm² area limit and the 1 mm width limit for the class.
• Separate OMDD cutting unit at 2 x 2 mm with a dedicated waste container for optical and magnetic media and payment cards.
• Integrated automatic oiler maintaining cutting capacity on a head with a very high edge count.
• 145-litre bin, roughly 1,446 sheets of shredded material between empties.
• 330 mm throat and automatic start/stop with paper-jam prevention.
• EcoSmart standby at 0.1 W; approximately 55 dB(A) at idle.

Specifications

What's in the Box

The document shredder arrives assembled on its wheeled cabinet with the reusable collection insert fitted in the 145-litre bin, mains lead and manual. The separate media cutting unit ships as its own free-standing unit with its own small waste container. Disposable plastic sacks are not supplied; the replacement reusable insert for the main bin is part HSM1850BOX.

Who Should Buy This — and Who Should Not

The buyer for this article is a site where sensitive paper arrives from many hands and nobody can guarantee what is clipped to it — a central shredding station in a hospital records office, a law firm's file room, a government back office. A micro-cut head is expensive to repair, and detection that stops the feed before metal reaches it pays for itself the first time it works.

If paper reaches the machine already prepared by one team, the plain 1855121M gives you the identical P-6 result for less money. If you need throughput more than particle size, the P36i 4.5 x 30 mm (1853121) does 27–29 sheets a pass at P-4 and keeps HSM's five-year warranty and lifetime roller cover, which P-6 machines do not get. And if the requirement is actually NSA-listed destruction, neither 1855 article qualifies — look at the P36i L6 OMDD Combo (1854123S).
