The DESICAiR DRY-700-35-E desiccant dehumidifier is designed for water damage remediation service. The DRY-700 is portable, self contained, and is designed for maneuverability in small spaces like building elevators and tight corridors.  Engineered to operate under severe operating conditions, the DESICAiR DRY-700 uses desiccant technology to remove water vapor directly from the air. Removing water from the air reduces the air vapor pressure, which

improves evaporation. This makes the DRY-700 the logical choice for structural drying, support drying for mold remediation, and new construction building envelope drying.  Since the silica gel desiccant does not rely on condensation, the DRY-700 provides drying well below 32°F dewpoint. Humidity can be controlled below levels at which moisture condenses on surfaces, thereby preventing corrosion, mold and mildew formation.  The DRY-700 boasts a 9KW, proportionally controlled, electric resistance heater to provide the reactivation energy required to handle a variety of drying situations year round. Getting 700 cfm of dehumidified process air where it is needed is no problem with 2.5” external static pressure.

Phoenix has turned up the HEAT with our new FireBird Electric Heat Drying System. Powerful, Portable and Safe BTU’s wherever you need them – the FireBird can provide up to 31,000 BTU’s of instant heat to speed your drying.

At the 50-amp setting, the FireBird produces 31,000 BTU’s – that’s 360 CFM with a 80°F temperature rise. Imagine placing the FireBird in an area with below freezing temperatures and instantly producing 360 CFM of air over 100 degrees. Using the 30-amp setting the FireBird produces 18,000 BTU’s – providing a 46°F temperature rise. Internal 140ºF safety thermal cutouts prevent the FireBird from overheating the job while the FireBird’s externally located thermostat terminals provide the flexibility you need to control the heat from anywhere in the drying space.

The Phoenix FireBird offers multiple heating, ducting, and electrical options for on-demand heating from inside or outside the drying space. The FireBird will operate freestanding or with 12-inch flex duct on the inlet and/or outlet to distribute the heat precisely where you need it.

The FireBird is fully NEC compliant for continuous operation and features a built-in 50-amp twist lock receptacle designed to work with standard 30 or 50 amp power sources – select the setting by simply flipping a switch. The FireBird comes standard with two 4-pole grounded power cords, one for 30 amp outlets and one for 50 amp outlets. The FireBird employs a startup delay to prevent the potentially dangerous arcing/sparking that occurs with most other high-powered heating devices during plug-in. As an additional safety feature to ensure external surfaces are safe to touch, the heating elements are shielded within a double-walled and screened enclosure. An automatic pressure switch disables the heating elements if intake or exhaust ducts become blocked or airflow is cut off for any reason.

The Phoenix FireBird has combined the safety, security, and convenience of electric heat with the legendary reliability of our proven restoration equipment. The FireBird is a powerful drying tool – just another example of Phoenix Restoration Equipment leading our industry with innovative products designed specifically for the restoration professional.

The Phoenix D385 provides the perfect combination of features and performance the restoration industry has been craving in a desiccant dehumidifier. Ingeniously designed to operate vertically or horizontally, the Phoenix D385 provides the wide operating range and ultra-low grains of a desiccant with the water removal capacity of the largest LGRs in cabinet dimensions identical to our popular Phoenix 200 Max.

The Phoenix D385 is not like the “toy” portable desiccant dehumidifiers that lack real capacity. The D385 delivers 385 CFM of ultra-low grain process air. The true four hole configuration allows the Phoenix D385 to be located in the affected area with the 75 CFM re-activation air stream isolated from the drying chamber. Three hole design units inherently pull unaffected and/or outside air into the drying chamber. The D385’s four hole design allows the restoration contractor to set-up for effective positive, neutral or negative pressure operation.

Designed to operate vertically or horizontally, the D385 will fit inside most crawlspaces. Having the D385 securely inside, rather than outside the crawlspace access, avoids the possibility of someone tampering with the unit. The 385 CFM of process air will provide 3 ACH on a 1750 square foot crawlspace with a 4-foot height or over 850 square feet of affected areas with 8-foot ceilings.

The Phoenix D385 is easy to transport and set-up. The D385 will fit on your truck in the areas already designed for your LGRs and will move on to the jobsite with the same portability. All the power to the unit is provided by two 115 volt grounded power cords. Simply plug the cords into separate 15 amp circuits. Each cord draws only 11 amps to power the D385. The re-activation air stream is ducted through 6″ flex duct provided with the unit and stores conveniently in the top of the unit.

The Phoenix D385 makes it possible for every restoration contractor to add the ultra-low grain performance of a desiccant with real water removal capacity to their equipment fleet.

The low price and high performance of the D385 makes it possible to purchase three Phoenix desiccants with a higher combined capacity, for a smaller investment than a single 1000 CFM competitive desiccant.

A New Era in LGR Technology

The new Phoenix Solution LGR performance amplifier widens the effective operating range of LGR dehumidifiers, increases grain depression, and improves water removal rates up to 100 percent.

The Solution is a specially designed intercooler that pre-cools the incoming air stream to the LGR dehumidifier. This pre-cooling is the same process that provides LGR dehumidifiers with their leap in performance over conventional dehumidifiers. The Solution is designed to take advantage of outside, unaffected or air conditioned air to provide significant water removal in drying conditions up to 140°F. Therma-Stor testing has revealed an increase in water removal rates and faster drying times using the Solution by utilizing cold outside air.

The Phoenix Solution marks a new era in LGR dehumidifier performance. Since the pre-cooling function of the Solution actually removes BTUs from the drying area, it reduces the dependence on air conditioning and the need to sacrifice drying equipment to maintain your optimal drying conditions. The Solution enables significant dehumidification while taking advantage of ultra fast, high temperature drying rates. This high temperature dehumidification performance is an upgrade to heat-only drying equipment which is otherwise limited by high dewpoint conditions. When outside grain levels are high, the Solution allows dehumidification to enhance the drying process.

The Solution improves the grain depression of the dehumidified air. This increases the vapor pressure differential (the key to evaporation) up to 33% and accelerates the drying process. This improves drying times in all classes of water damage but is particularly beneficial in specialty drying applications, such as hardwood floors.

The Solution is designed to nest into the top of the Phoenix HT and 200 Max and is constructed of the same quality materials. The increased operating efficiency of the dehumidifier provided by the Solution is often equal to the 1.6 amp power requirement of the unit. The Solution is easy to carry and stacks for transportation and storage.

The Phoenix Solution is easy to set-up. Simply remove the top and filter from the Phoenix 200 Max or HT, install the dehumidifier bracket, set the Solution into the top opening of the dehumidifier and slide forward into the capture guides on the dehumidifier bracket. Then, duct the inlet air of the Solution to either an outside, unaffected or air conditioned source, and duct the outlet of the Solution back to the same source.

High Capacity, Low Grain Refrigerant Dehumidifier

The Phoenix 200 MAX is one of the most effective and versatile drying devices available on the market today. The 200 MAX removes more water and has more grain depression than other refrigerant dehumidifiers, even though it only requires 7.4 amps of electricity. When you combine this performance with the multiple ducting and air filtration options, it is easy to understand why the Phoenix 200 MAX is considered the ultimate in low grain refrigerant dehumidification.

High-Efficiency Design

The term LGR (Low Grain Refrigerant) was created to describe the unique drying capabilities of the Phoenix 200 dehumidifier. Beginning with the original Phoenix 200 LGR, these units were known for delivering substantially drier air, as well as for drying areas to much lower specific humidity levels than conventional dehumidifiers. The Phoenix 200 MAX, an improved version of the original Phoenix 200, is the culmination of eight years of LGR manufacturing and design expertise.

As always, Phoenix dehumidifiers feature significant air filtration. This filtration dramatically improves the air quality in the areas being dried and assures the continued optimal performance of the refrigeration system.

The Phoenix 200 MAX offers multiple filter options. While MERV-6 and MERV-8 still can be used, Phoenix has raised the bar and now includes standard in all 200 MAX a 65% MERV-11. The optional 95% MERV-14 will remove particles as small as .3 microns.

Versatile and Durable

The multiple ducting options on the Phoenix 200 MAX allow for ducting both the intake air and the filtered and dehumidified supply air. This makes it possible to easily combine the Phoenix 200 MAX with a HEPA air scrubber, air conditioner or desiccant dehumidifier.
