Kobra 270 TS C4 Heavy Duty P4 Cross Cut Shredder, 99.845

Kobra 270 TS C4 P4 Cross Cut Continuous Duty Shredder – 19 Sheet Capacity, EPC & 110L Bin

Why this P4 shredder suits busy shared offices

The Kobra 270 TS C4 is a professional cross cut shredder designed for medium to larger offices and busy departments requiring regular destruction of confidential paperwork. Its P4 cutting system combines useful 19-sheet capacity with a wide 310mm paper feed opening, large 110-litre cabinet and 24-hour continuous duty motor for dependable shredding throughout the working day.

Soft-touch controls are combined with Kobra's EPC Electronic Power Control, which monitors the shredding load to help users make effective use of the available capacity without overfeeding the machine. Carbon-hardened cutters and Kobra's heavy duty chain drive with steel gears provide robust construction for regular professional use.

P4 Cross Cut Security for Confidential Office Records

Security level P4 cross cut shredding to 3.9 × 40mm particles – ideal for general commercial, financial, HR, student and patient data, for example.

• Shreds up to 19 sheets of A4 paper at 80gsm in a single pass
• Cross cut particles provide considerably greater document security than strip cut shredding
• Suitable for confidential everyday business paperwork and personal information
• Carbon-hardened paper cutters accept standard staples and paperclips
• Also capable of shredding suitable film material

EPC Load Monitoring Helps Prevent Overfeeding

Kobra's EPC Electronic Power Control monitors the amount of paper being presented to the cutting mechanism and provides the user with a visual indication of the current shredding load.

• Helps users make effective use of the available sheet capacity
• Provides a visual indication of the current paper load
• Helps reduce unnecessary jams caused by overfeeding
• Supports efficient shredding during larger document-disposal jobs

24-Hour Continuous Duty for Regular Departmental Shredding

• 24-hour continuous duty motor – no timed duty cycle or scheduled cool-down period
• Suitable for repeated shredding throughout the working day
• Motor thermal protection helps guard against overheating
• Carbon-hardened steel cutting knives provide durable long-term performance
• 500W motor provides dependable power for regular professional use
• High-precision cutter design combines useful sheet capacity with efficient power consumption

Continuous-duty operation makes the 270 TS C4 particularly suitable for shared workplaces where confidential documents need to be destroyed whenever required rather than accumulated while waiting for a shredder to cool down.

Kobra Chain Drive & Steel Gears for Added Toughness

A significant advantage of the Kobra 270 TS C4 is its heavy duty chain drive with steel gears. Unlike shredders that use plastic gearing within the drive mechanism, Kobra's Super Potential Power System transfers power to the cutting head through durable metal components.

• Provides strong and consistent power transmission to the cutting mechanism
• Increased resistance to wear during frequent and demanding use
• Avoids reliance on less durable plastic gearing
• Supports continuous-duty operation and the P4 cross cut mechanism
• Designed for dependable long-term operation

This robust drive construction is a distinctive Kobra feature and contributes significantly to the machine's toughness, durability and reliability.

Separate Cutting Units for Paper & Optical Media

Unlike many office shredders that feed all materials through the same cutting mechanism, the Kobra 270 TS C4 incorporates two separate sets of cutting knives and two dedicated feed openings.

• 310mm main feed opening for paper documents
• 123mm separate feed opening for CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs and payment cards
• Separate CD cutter shreds to security level O-1 / T-2 / E-2
• Independent cutting units keep paper and plastic media processing separate
• Dedicated media cutters reduce unnecessary wear on the main paper cutting mechanism
• Also accepts chip cards through the separate media entry

This arrangement is particularly practical in workplaces that regularly need to destroy both paper records and electronic or plastic data carriers.

Separate Collection Bins Help Keep Waste Streams Apart

The two cutting systems feed into separate integrated removable bins, helping keep shredded paper apart from plastic and optical-media waste.

• Helps separate paper waste from plastic and optical media
• Makes sorting different waste streams easier
• Large overall 110-litre cabinet capacity
• Automatic stop when the waste compartment is full
• Steel cabinet mounted on castors for easier positioning

Soft-Touch Controls for Straightforward Shared Use

The soft-touch control panel provides convenient access to the shredder's main functions, with illuminated indicators and EPC load information giving clear feedback during operation.

• Responsive soft-touch buttons for convenient operation
• Clear operating and load-status indicators
• Automatic start and stop through electronic sensors
• Automatic reverse in the event of a paper jam
• Automatic stop when the waste compartment is full
• Electronic door safety system stops the cutting mechanism when the cabinet is opened

Energy Smart Standby & Automatic Switch-Off

Kobra's Energy Smart management system automatically places the shredder into power-saving standby mode approximately eight seconds after shredding has finished.

• Reduces unnecessary electricity consumption between shredding jobs
• Automatically returns to operation when required
• Automatically disconnects from the mains after approximately 4 hours of inactivity
• Helps prevent the shredder being left unnecessarily powered outside working hours

110-Litre Cabinet for Busy Shared Environments

• Large 110-litre waste capacity
• Reduces the frequency of emptying during regular cross cut shredding
• Strong steel cabinet designed for professional workplace use
• Mounted on castors for easier movement and positioning
• Automatic stop when the waste compartment is full
• Electronic door safety switch protects the operator when the cabinet is opened
