R250| LGR Dehumidifier Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions
3 OPERATION
Place dehumidifier inside structure, place condensate hose into a drain,
or a large water tight container, and turn on. To decrease drying times,
make sure all windows and doors are closed to the outside and seal off
the affected wet areas from unaffected areas.
Optimum performance will be observed between the temperatures of
70°F and
95°F.
3.1 TRANSPORTING
The Phoenix R250 must always be upright when transported by vehicle. It may be
tipped on to its handle and back for loading and moving by hand.
If the unit is transported on its side, let it sit upright at least 30 minutes before use.
3.2 LOCATION
Note the following precautions when locating the Phoenix R250:
• 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 R250 as a bench or table.
• It must always be used in the upright position.
3.3 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Phoenix R250 plugs into a common grounded outlet on a 15 amp circuit. It
draws 8.3 amps at 80°F, 60% RH. If used in a wet area, a ground fault interrupter
(GFI) is required. If an extension cord is required, it must have a minimum of 14
gauge conductors if 25 feet long or less and 12 gauge conductors if greater than 25
feet long.
3.4 CONDENSATE REMOVAL
The Phoenix R250 is equipped with an internal condensate pump to remove the
water that is condensed during dehumidification. This pump allows the condensate
to be pumped 23 feet above the unit with the attached hose. If the condensate must
be pumped more than 23 feet above the unit, a relay pump must be added. Use the
PURGE button to empty reservoir prior to transport and storage. If the water in the
reservoir fails to be evacuated, the float safety switch will turn off the compressor.
