Congratulations!
Thanks you for choosing a PHI TENOR!
The TENOR combines a high level of passive safety with the ability to use a very wide range of speeds. This predestines this wing
for relaxed cross-country flights. The TENOR is a fast, dynamic high performer for a very large target group.
This manual contains important information for handling your paraglider. We therefore recommend that you read the following
pages carefully before your first flight. For questions or suggestions, please contact us at info@phi-air.com.
More information about this and our other products can be found at phi-air.com.
In order to be able to use all service and warranty services, you must register your paraglider on our homepage under SERVICE /
REGISTRATION.
PHI
The PHI brand stands for experience, competence and passion. The PHI team consists of experts and enthusiasts with a lot of
experience. First-class technical professionalism is the base to further push the limits.
The PHI TENOR
The TENOR is a Mid-B wing with a very high technical effort. The resulting dynamic performance and the high degree of passive
safety set standards. The additional miniribs in the leading edge double the number of cells in the flow-critical area. Together
with the optimized zig-zag 3D shaping, a new level of surface quality is realized. The TENOR impresses with its very robust
construction (Dominico 30D / 20D cloth, inner minirib seams on the rear edge, additional reinforcements on the profiles). A
modern interior design minimizes weight.
Technical description
The TENOR has 50 cells across the entire span, of which five cells each on the Stabilo are designed as closed cells. This build up
forms a very form stable and homogeneous wing. The profiles used combine high performance with a very forgiving flight
behavior.
4 levels of lines on the sail lead to 4 risers on each side. The outermost A lines hang on a separate riser for easy big ears. The
suspension system is extremely reduced, which offers a clear buildup and minimizes the line resistance.
On the front A riser, the speed system is attached.
For better distinction, all A-lines on the maillon rapide are covered and red.
The B-lines are green.
The stabiloleine on the B-riser red (orange).
The C-lines blue.
The brake lines yellow.
Safety
The TENOR is characterized by extremely long brake travels til stall and a very large damping around all axes. The stability in
turbulent air is very high. If the wing collapses, the reaction is typical B-class: with no dynamics.
The maneuver ratings of B in the EN / LTF tests confirm the large safety margin of this glider.
Handling
Although the maximum braking travel is very long, the control inputs are short and direct, the brake pressure is low with good
progression and excellent feedback. The TENOR can be moved very sensitively and with comparatively small control inputs in
thermals.
