KOBRA CYCLONE + COMPACTOR C-500


The Kobra Compactor model C-500 is designed to work with the Cyclone industrial shredder only when paper is being shredded. When shredding other materials, you simply remove the compactor and use standard Cyclone disposal bags. This optional accessory compresses and reduces the volume of the shredded paper by 4 to 5 times to minimize the space required for disposal. Easy to install and operate, the Kobra Compactor C-500 is completely removable for shredding of materials other than paper. The Kobra Compactor C-500 eliminates the need for standard Cyclone disposal bags and will work with any Cyclone security level screen.


How it Works, The Technology

Kobra Cyclone is equipped with a turbine generating a high pressure air flow and sets of high speed rotating blades. By making the air stream spin, particles are subjected to centrifugal forces and deposited from the air flow into the disposal bag. This unique shredding system, delivers the highest shredding performance and efficiency along with maximum flexibility in choosing the correct Security and bulk reduction Level for a given application. Cyclone does not require the special maintenance and complicated oiling procedures that other machines with similar ouput rates do. Cyclone is designed for high volume shredding and maintenance free operation.

The Control Panel

Kobra Cyclone is operated through a conveniently located and easy to use control panel. Just press the start button, throw the material into the large entry opening and leave. Kobra Cyclone will automatically shred everything and go into stand-by mode when shredding is completed.

A Load Meter positioned in the center of the control panel measures the actual load on the turbine and on the rotating blades and shows the operator the availability of the shredding capacity at any time during intensive and continuous shredding jobs. By following the Load Meter indications the operator can take advantage of the full shredding output and power of the Kobra Cyclone.


Available Security Levels

5 different Security Levels are available with the Kobra Cyclone. It is possible to switch the machine to any of the available Security Levels by a simple modification which takes only a few minutes. This unique feature allows the Cyclone to produce the output particles which meet the requirements of the most demanding applications in terms of bulk reduction, shredding speed and security.

The highest Security Level (Level 006) sets the machine for high security shredding, maximum bulk reduction of shredded material and minimum shredding output per hour. At the other end of the spectrum the lowest Security Level sets the machine for minimum bulk reduction of shredded material and maximum shredding output per hour. Shredding capacity of the Kobra Cyclone will remain at 500 sheets regardless of the Security Level installed. The following chart is a helpful guide for choosing the correct set up on the Kobra Cyclone and it shows with a 1:1 ratio the available Security Levels and the suggested use of each Level according to shredding output per hour.
