Claim 8:
9. A die assembly for a pelletizing apparatus with a pressure regulating device, the die assembly comprising:
a base member having a fluid inlet side and a fluid outlet side;
a flow channel formed in the base member to provide a fluid-conducting connection between the fluid inlet side and the fluid outlet side;
an annular channel section connected to the flow channel in a fluid-conducting manner and formed in a region of the fluid outlet side;
a flow cross-section regulating element configured to influence a flow cross-section of the annular channel section, said flow cross-section regulating element being movable relative to the annular channel section and/or the flow channel, wherein the flow cross-section regulating element has a regulating ring and a retaining ring connected to the regulating ring; and
at least one actuator, operatively connected to the flow cross-section regulating element, and configured to move the flow cross-section regulating element relative to the annular channel section, translationally in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the base member, wherein the actuator has an actuating element which is connected to the retaining ring and which is operatively connected to a translationally movable plunger.
