MÜHLEN Ofen 340M — Shared Office Paper Shredder with DIN P6 Micro Cut

Who Is It For?

The MÜHLEN Ofen 340M is a heavy duty micro-cut shared office paper shredder for teams handling contracts, finance, HR, legal and healthcare records. It cuts documents into 2x10 mm particles at DIN P6, which suits units where personal data and trade secrets must not be recovered. With a 38-litre bin, 15 sheets per pass and up to 20 minutes of non-stop shredding, it is aimed at a medium-sized office department rather than a single desk.

Key Features and What They Do

  • Ultra micro cut, 2x10 mm (DIN P6): Pages are broken into far smaller pieces than strip-cut models produce, for documents that need high confidentiality.
  • 2.8 m/minute shredding speed: Keeps a steady pace even at a small particle size, driven by a 540 Watt capacitor motor.
  • 20 minutes non-stop: A backlog of paperwork can be cleared in one session without frequent cooling breaks.
  • Separate feed slots: A 240 mm opening for paper plus slots for CD/DVD, credit cards and business cards; cards are cut to 4x25 mm.
  • Staples and paper clips: Metal items are shredded without problems, so documents need no preparation.
  • Windowed 38-litre bin with LED panel: ON/OFF, REVERSE and FORWARD buttons, plus lights for power, bin, overheating and jams.

What happens if the bin is removed or full?
The automatic stop function activates. Once the bin is emptied and put back, the shredder is ready to continue.

Usage and Care Tips

Feed no more than 15 sheets at a time through the 240 mm opening and use the REVERSE and FORWARD buttons to free a jammed document. Watch the bin window and empty it before the automatic stop interrupts your work. When the overheating light comes on, let the machine go into standby and cool down; respecting the LED warnings during heavy use protects the motor. The blades carry a 5-year warranty and other components 2 years.
