Phoenix Guardian HEPA System - Owner's Manual - Barker-Hammer (EN)

4201 Lien Rd • Madison, WI 53704 Owner’s Manual — Phoenix Guardian HEPA System Installation, Operation & Service Instructions Read and Save These Instructions The Phoenix Guardian HEPA System remains the first portable air scrubbing device designed exclusively for the restoration industry. The Guardian can perform several critical air quality remediation functions simultaneously. The Guardian HEPA System captures virtually all removable airborne particles. The optional 4-stage absorption filter contains a blend of activated carbon and potassium permanganate to remove airborne odors and chemicals.

The true 1400 cfm capacity of the Phoenix Guardian HEPA System will clean one air change of a 12 x 14 foot room in less than a minute. In order to be effective, an air scrubber should be able to perform a minimum of four air changes per hour. Therefore, a single Guardian can be expected to control up to 21,000 cubic feet. The Guardian’s high airflow and multiple ducting options allow for the combination of negative or positive air flow control of an area and containment air scrubbing at the same time. This provides the unique ability to continually filter the indoor air and depressurize the damaged site to prevent the spread of contamination simultaneously.

The Guardian’s intake will accept either 18” flex-duct or 12” flex-duct with the included adapter, to pressurize areas for protection from contamination or to draw contaminated air from areas that are difficult to access or too small to accommodate an air scrubbing device. Every Guardian HEPA System comes with one 14” lay-flat duct ring, for 100% negative air operation, and two 10” lay-flat duct rings for a combination of negative air, air scrubbing or positive airflow.

It may be tipped on to its back for loading and moving by hand. Serial No.__________________________________ Purchase Date_____________________________ Dealer’s Name_____________________________ 2.2 Location Note the following precautions when locating the Phoenix Guardian:

Read the operation and maintenance instructions carefully before using this unit. Proper adherence to these instructions is essential to obtain maximum benefit from your Phoenix Guardian HEPA System dehumidifier. • It is designed to be used INDOORS ONLY. • If used in a wet area, plug it into a GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER. DO NOT use the Phoenix Guardian HEPA System as a bench or table. • It must always be used in the upright position. • The air inlet on top & the front outlet should be at least 1 foot from walls and other obstructions to airflow. 2.3 Electrical Requirements The Phoenix Guardian can be plugged into a grounded 15 Amp circuit.

It draws 12 Amps or less with clean filters and no ducting (if less amperage is available, see Section 2.4). Toll-Free 1-800-533-7533 2 www.UsePhoenix.com • sales@UsePhoenix.com

Due to the high percentage of a 15 Amp circuit’s capacity that the unit uses, the circuit should be dedicated to running the Phoenix Guardian HEPA System only. Amp draw decreases as filters get dirty and ducting is added. CAUTION: The unit must always be operated with all three filters and the top in place. Operating it with one or more filters missing, the top off, and/or inferior filters will cause the amperage to increase and the motor to overload. If an extension cord is required, it must have a minimum of 12 gauge conductors if 25 feet long or less and 10 gauge conductors if greater than 25 feet long.

Figure 3 2.4 Limiting Amp Draw In certain conditions, allowing the unit to draw its normal 10 to 12 Amps may be undesirable. Limited amperage available may be needed to run other equipment. In such conditions, amp draw can be reduced by restricting the airflow at the inlet with the unit running on either speed. The 18” diameter inlet grid can be restricted by partially covering it with anything convenient and stiff enough to maintain its shape (cardboard, sheet metal, plywood) The negative air pressure at the inlet will help hold the restrictor in place.

2.5 Air Ducting 2.5A Inlet Ducting Occasionally the area to be filtered is difficult to access and/or the unit cannot be located in the area. In such cases, the air can be ducted to the unit’s inlet. A round 18” diameter flex duct can be attached to the unit inlet on top. It connects by hooking the spiral wire of the flex duct under the four tabs inside the perimeter of the inlet opening; see figures 1, 2 and 3. Flexible 18” ducting is available from Therma-Stor. An adapter is included that allows 12” flexible ducting to be connected to the inlet. It is stored on the unit’s side.

Flex duct is pushed through the adapter center with the adapter hooking tabs facing away from duct; (see figure 4). Figure 1 Figure 4 Figure 2 3 www.UsePhoenix.com • sales@UsePhoenix.com Toll-Free 1-800-533-7533

Figure 5 Figure 8 Figure 6 Figure 9 Figure 7 The spiral wire passes from one side of the adapter to the other via the notch on the hole edge; (see figure 5). The adapter and duct are positioned on the unit top with the four tabs placed into the slots. The adapter is then twisted counterclockwise to lock it in place; see figures 6 and 7.
