Description

The ATLAS AF150 Automatic Paper Shredder is a high-capacity cross-cut document shredder designed for offices, businesses, institutions, and workspaces that regularly handle confidential paperwork. Its automatic feeding system allows users to load a stack of documents and shred them with minimal manual intervention, making routine document disposal more convenient and efficient.

The shredder supports automatic feeding of up to 150 sheets and manual feeding of up to 10 sheets of 80gsm paper, according to commonly listed specifications for the model. Its cross-cut shredding mechanism produces small paper particles and provides a DIN 66399 P-4 security level, making it suitable for disposing of sensitive business records, financial documents, invoices, personal information, and other confidential paperwork.

With a 28-litre waste bin, overload protection, reverse functionality, and a reported operating noise level below 65dB, the ATLAS AF150 is designed to support regular shredding tasks in shared office environments. The exact specifications should be matched to the unit supplied, as some local listings report different manual capacities, bin sizes, and operating cycles. <Cite refs={[“turn451942search0″,”turn451942search1″,”turn451942search6”]}/>
