Introduction

The Phoenix FOCUS II is the new leader in performance, convenience, portability, and safety for low profile air movers.

Its ultra compact (21” X 8 1/4” footprint and 9 3/8” height) make the Phoenix Focus II the most compact and portable fan in its class. The rugged molded in handles give you the solid control required when packing and unpacking air movers. Its easy-winding cord wrap and multiple securement options makes it a snap to prep for transport. Because of its deeply-molded interlocking features, the Phoenix Focus II is rock solid when stacked for transport.

With its Patent Pending design, and optimized outlet shape, the Phoenix Focus II delivers airflow of over 1000 CFM. This gives you high velocity air over a 50% larger area than other low profile air movers. In addition, the Phoenix Focus II is stable on all five sides for maximum flexibility to position and direct the drying. Optional Focus Control Sticks, allows unprecedented control with amazing flexibility.

The (patent pending), compact design of the Phoenix Focus II allows four times the number of full-size axial air movers, maximizing valuable storage space during transportation and resulting in industry leading deployment on site.

All this performance is available with half the power draw. At 1.1 amps the Phoenix Focus II sets the industry standard for drying per amp.

Operation

Transporting the Phoenix Focus II

The Phoenix Focus II is designed to be stacked vertically or horizontally (“Bookshelf Stacking”) for transport.

Electrical Requirements

The Phoenix Focus II can be plugged directly into any standard wall receptacle. Without ducting, the Phoenix Focus II will draw 1.1 amps at 110-120 VAC. Ducting will reduce amp draw. Up to 10 Phoenix Focus IIs can be daisy chained on a standard 15 amp branch circuit.

Focus Corners

The Phoenix Focus II is designed with four focus corners to optimize drying over a wide surface area staring directly at the front of the device.

Resettable Circuit Breaker

The 12 Amp thermal circuit breaker protects the unit and devices connected receptacle. In case of a fault, the breaker can be reset at the Phoenix Focus II control panel.

Use of multiple fans and any other connected devices must be in accordance with the National Electric Code and any additional codes or laws required by your local government.

IMPORTANT: Total amperage of the Phoenix Focus II plus all devices plugged into its convenience receptacle is limited by the onboard circuit breaker. Excessive current will cause the circuit breaker to trip. This may occur instantly or after a period of time depending on the operating conditions.

IMPORTANT : When the Phoenix Focus II is plugged into a standard “powered” wall outlet the Phoenix Focus II is electrically “HOT” and AC voltage is present.

Maintenance

****WARNING: Disconnect the unit from power before servicing or cleaning. Replace all safety grills after servicing or cleaning.

Power Cord

Visually inspect cord and plug head before use. If there are signs of damage or excessive wear, discontinue use until the unit has been serviced.

Cleaning

The housing is made of durable and washable polypropylene. When cleaning, the use of solvents is NOT recommended.

When washing inside the unit, disconnect the unit from its power source. Protect the switch, receptacle and circuit breaker from water intrusion. Do not spray water or cleaning solution at motor. If motor does get wet, allow motor to dry completely before restarting. If fan is to be washed and not used within 24 hours, allow fan to drip dry for 10 minutes and then run for 5 minutes before storing.


IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove impeller blade from motor assembly. Doing so can cause blade to become imbalanced upon re-assembly

Service


CAUTION: Servicing the Phoenix Focus II with its high voltage circuitry presents a health hazard that could result in death, serious bodily injury, and/or property damage. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing. Only qualified service people should service this unit.

CAUTION: If the supply cord or circuit breaker become damaged, they must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
