Power

This refers to the electric motor power of the waste disposal unit, which determines its efficiency and ability to handle large volumes of waste and solid particles. Higher power means faster processing, but it also leads to increased energy consumption and cost. Therefore, it is important to consider specific usage conditions when selecting a grinder based on its power. So, for small volumes and relatively soft waste, engines up to 0.5 hp are enough, and for more serious tasks, more powerful units are already desirable.

The power consumption and the power of the motor are related, and the formula to convert between them is 1 hp = 735 W. The power ratio is important in determining the energy efficiency of the waste disposal unit, and a larger difference between these values indicates lower efficiency and greater energy waste. However, some manufacturers may provide the peak power of the engine instead of the nominal power, which is not a reliable indicator of efficiency since the waste disposal unit can only operate in this mode for a short period. It is important to consider these factors when choosing a device based on power consumption and efficiency.

Chamber capacity

The working volume of the waste disposal unit's chamber. This parameter determines how much waste can be placed in the device in one load. For everyday use in an average family, a volume of up to 1 liter or even less (about 600 – 700 ml) is considered quite sufficient, however, there are also more capacious models.

Auto-reverse

Waste disposal units often include an auto-reverse function, which automatically changes the direction of the working tool's rotation. This periodic change is believed to enhance processing quality, accelerate the process, and prevent jamming of the device.
