This manual illustrates the safety, operation, and maintenance features of the Cold Jet

Pelletizer P1500 and P3000.

At a distance of 3.28 ft (1 meter) and at a steady operating pace, the A-weighted emission

sound pressure level at workstations is 83 dB (A). The primary source of the sound is the

hydraulic pump/motor. The A-weighted emission sound power level emitted by the machinery

may also reach 83 dB (A). The peak C-weighted instantaneous sound pressure value at

workstations will not exceed 130 dB (A).

The build revision level is located on the machine’s data plate. All machine diagrams are

located on the inside of the electrical enclosure door.
