Motor & Manual Operated Hard Drive Destroyer
BOW Industries introduces the Model MX2-N Motor & Manual Operated Hard Drive Destroyer. The MX2-N, while motor
driven, still includes the manual feature found on all BOW's hard drive destroyers, allowing the operator full time
operation whether electrical power is available or not. A feature none of the c ompetition can claim.
Designed with emergency situations in mind where electric power may not be available and quick destruction is a must,
the low cost and versatility make this destroyer perfect for both the government and commercial markets where tight
budgets are an important consideration.

Inserting a hard drive and closing the safety door automatically starts the destruction process, allowing destruction every
10 seconds (12 seconds for 50 Hz units). After destruction the destroyer pushes the hard drive out for easy removal. If
power is ever interrupted the operator has the manual feature to continue. No interruption or setup. Simply turn the easy
to turn handle and continue the operation manually.
Government specifications require that a hard drive needs to be destroyed so that no equipment or persons can spin or
operate the drive. Physical destruction is preferred because it gives clear visible evidence that the hard drive is
inoperable. The MX2-N easily meets these requirements and is an inexpensive alternative to expensive power destroyers
and shredders.
The internal workings of the unit press down on the drive bending it approximately 90 degrees. The bend renders the
drive useless by bending the platters, damaging the heads, motor and circuit board. To keep speed at an optimum the
MX2-N resets automatically. No time is wasted moving the blade back into position or turning the handle bac kwards.
With years of data from our customers these destroyers have proven they are reliable enough to offer an 18 month
standard factory warranty, more than any of our competitors.
This small heavy-duty destroyer is maintenance free and completely self-contained. No messy fluids or external
components to deal with and no adjustments or calibrations necessary.
Today, with the threat of identity theft and the war on terrorism still raging, it is important to keep information secure and
out of the wrong hands. In emergency situations destruction by rapid and reliable means to insure that the information is
irretrievable is top priority. It is for these situations that the MX2-N is perfectly suited.
