The Phoenix 200 MAX is one of the most effective and versatile drying devices available. The 200 MAX
removes more water and features better grain depression than other refrigerant dehumidiers, while
drawing only 7.4 amps of electricity.
The term LGR (Low Grain Refrigerant) was created to describe the unique drying capabilities of the
Phoenix 200 dehumidier. These units were known for delivering substantially drier air, as well as for
drying areas to much lower humidity levels than conventional dehumidiers. The Phoenix 200 MAX, an
improved version of the original Phoenix 200, is the culmination of over a decade of LGR manufacturing
and design expertise.
