8. aintenance 3 1 Air Filter The Phoenix 200 HT is equipped with a pleated fabric air filter that must be checked regularly The standard filter is a MERV 11 high efficiency filter Operating the unit with a dirty filter will reduce the dehumidifier s capacity and efficiency and may cause the compressor to cycle off and on unnecessarily on the defrost control The filter can generally be vacuumed clean several times before needing replacement Replacement filters can be ordered from the factory or purchased locally if available AWARNING WARNING DO NOT operate the unit without the filter or with a less effective filter as the heat exchange coils inside the unit could become clogged and require disassembly to clean 3 2 Storage There are two issues to consider when the Phoenix 200 HT is stored between uses and both pertain to the water trapped in the unit damage caused by freezing or biological growth The effect of the trapped water can be greatly reduced if precautions are taken to remove as much as possible before storage 1 Use the pump purge switch to reduce the water level in the reservoir 2 Stretch the hose flat to drain it completely If the unit will not be exposed to freezing temperatures an alternative to reduce biological growth is to flush the unit with a bio fungicide that is approved for use with copper aluminum and polyethylene To flush 1 Run the hose to a drain 2 Remove the air filter Slowly

18. t turned on It resets to zero after 99 999 9 hours of operation 2 8 Temperature Specific Operation Above 90 F When the Phoenix 200 HT is used in high temperature conditions above 90 F the refrigerant pressure inside the condenser rises By removing the grain control magnet from the bypass openings additional airflow is directed over the condenser and less airflow Toll Free 1 800 533 7533 is directed across the evaporator This airflow lowers the refrigerant pressure in the condenser and improves dehumidifier efficiency The relative reduction or slowing of airflow across the evaporator allows more time for the air temperature to be lowered to the dew point which also increased dehumidifier efficiency These higher temperatures are often found after the first 24 hours See Figure 1 for correct grain control magnet position for operating in temperatures above 90 F Figure 1 Defrost timer and grain control magnet position for operating in temperatures above 90 F Between 50 F 90 F When the Phoenix 200 HT is used in normal dehumidifier operating temperatures 70 F to 90 F the grain control magnet should cover the bypass openings This allows increased airflow across the evaporator and increases performance by increasing the amount of air that is dehumidified This temperature range is often found during the first 24 hours of a drying job When the Phoenix 200 HT is used in cooler operating temperatures 50 F to
