About this file
This document is a detailed specification sheet for a Vertical Baler, outlining essential characteristics and operational conditions for a recycling equipment procurement. The baler must meet specific technical requirements, including a minimum bale size of 30" x 60" x 48", a minimum bale volume of 50 Cu Ft, and minimum bale weights of 1300 lbs for cardboard and 340 lbs for aluminum cans and plastics. Key safety and operational features include a safety cable through the cylinder, bale channel clean-out rod, fixed bale dogs, a "bale full" indicator light, and compliance with ANSI & OSHA safety standards.
The baler is intended for use in a recycling center to process aluminum cans, plastic #1 (PET) bottles and jugs, and plastic #2 (HDPE) bottles and jugs. Technical specifications mandate a 10 HP motor, 56,000 lbs ram pressure, 2,200 PSI system pressure, and a 6" bore cylinder with 4" rod and 48" stroke. The equipment must support a 208/120V, 3-phase electrical hookup and be UL listed, with additional safety features such as a key-operated selector switch and loading door and platen safety interlock.
