The groundbreaking DryMAX XL removes an amazing 125 ppd at AHAM while taking up only 50% of the space of the next smallest competitive XL dehumidifier. Because of its compact size, the DryMAX XL allows restorers to fit twice the amount of XL dehumidifiers on their vehicle. The DryMAX XL is also the first dehumidifier with built-in Bluetooth technology and the first with an advanced graphical control panel which puts all the information on homescreen in an easily understandable format. Our free DryLINK app is included with the unit upon purchase. This unit will automatically send the psychrometric data by Bluetooth to the DryLINK app or an app you may already use for your drying jobs.

Like our industry-leading DryMAX and AirMAX, the new Phoenix DryMAX XL was also designed with superior stacking features and easy service access. Our patented FiveCOIL design, which includes our micro-channel condenser, allows the featherweight DryMAX XL to pack a knock-out punch on drying performance every time.

Read the operation and maintenance instructions carefully before using this unit. Proper adherence to these instructions is essential to obtain maximum benefit from your Phoenix DryMAX XL dehumidifier.

Operation

Place dehumidifier inside structure, place condensate hose into a drain, or a very large container, and turn on. To decrease drying times, make sure all windows and doors are closed to the outside and seal off the wet area from any unaffected areas.

Transporting

The Phoenix DryMAX XL features a high-impact roto-molded housing which protects the unit. It is recommended the units are properly secured for transport. The Phoenix DryMAX XL must always be on its base when transported by vehicle.

Electrical Requirements

The Phoenix DryMAX XL plugs into a common grounded outlet on a 15 amp circuit. It draws 7.7 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.

Control Panel

When presented with Control Panel Selection Boxes in the control panel the white box with the black lettering will be the active selection.

Control Panel Key
Light Bar
Green Pulsing = The system is running correctly but the compressor is off.
Green = The system is running normally and the compressor is on.
Blue = The system is running normally but the unit is in defrost.
Red = Reservoir full, check the pump, float switch, or condensate hose.

Startup

Logo
Operation

When the unit is plugged in you will see the Phoenix logo followed by the Standby Screen

Plugged In – Standby Mode

Operation

When plugged in but without pushing the power button, the display will communicate to the user that the machine is in Standby mode and ready to be powered on. In Standby Mode, the display will also show the current job and life hours on the fourth line.

Light Bar = Off

The Powering Up screen allows the compressor time to acclimate before starting up.

Light Bar = Pulsing

Operation

Power Button

When the dehumidifier is plugged in it will enter stand-by mode.

Operation

Press the button to turn the dehumidifier on. The unit will begin the Powering Up sequence and you will see this screen:

Operation

Press and hold the Power button to turn the dehumidifier off. The dehumidifier will go through a powering-down cycle.
The default shut-down time is three minutes plus 20 seconds for a final purge. The shutdown time can be changed be scrolling through the menu to this screen.

Operation

IMPORTANT

  • Unplugging the unit without running the shutdown sequence will allow water to remain in the unit after use.
  • Tilting the unit more than 70 degrees on the handle side or more than 20 degrees on the non-handle side may result in water spillage.
  • Tilting the unit without running the final purge may result in water spillage

PURGE Button

During normal operation the pump automatically cycles when the reservoir is full.

Press the button to remove condensate manually from the reservoir.

Dashboard

Press the Purge key to return to the dashboard

Purging

Operation

Press the PURGE button to purge the machine.
The display will communicate to the user that the machine is purging on the fourth line of the dashboard and show a 20 second countdown timer. This will momentarily replace grain depression until the machine has finished purging.

The display will also communicate to the user that the machine is auto purging in the fourth line of the dashboard and show a 20 second countdown timer.

Condensate Removal

The Phoenix DryMAX XL is equipped with an internal condensate pump to remove the water that is condensed during dehumidification. This allows the condensate to be pumped up to 20 feet with the attached hose. If the condensate must be pumped more than 20 feet above the unit, a second pump must be added to relay the condensate.
The condensate pump automatically purges when the reservoir is full. Use the PURGE button to manually remove condensation.

Operation

For help with the “Reservoir full: check float, pump, and hose” error see section 5.3 Troubleshooting

Defrosting

The display will communicate to the user that the machine is defrosting on the fourth line of the dashboard. This will momentarily replace grain depression until the machine has finished defrosting.

Light Bar = On
Color = Blue

Defrost Cycle

If the low side refrigerant temperature drops due to excessive frost formation on the evaporator coil and below the temperature set point, the thermistor activates the PLC and Status Light Indicator. The compressor is cycled off and on by the thermistor temperature measurement. The air mover will continue to run, causing air to flow through the evaporator coil and melt the ice when the compressor is off.
When the air temperature and/or humidity increases, the evaporator temperature will rise and the thermistor will end the defrost cycle at the temperature set point.

Light Bar = Blue

Shut Down Sequence/Power Down time

Operation

Press the Set button to adjust the Power Down Time in one minute increments ranging from 3 – 20 minutes.

The Power Down Time allows the blower to run to remove water from the coil and to allow the evaporator to acclimate to the ambient conditions. At the end of the shutdown time the unit will automatically purge to remove any remaining water.

The proper shutdown is dependent on conditions. Increasing your shutdown time will help ensure there is no residual water in the unit.

IMPORTANT

  • Unplugging the unit without running the shutdown sequence will allow water to remain in the unit after use.
  • Tilting the unit more than 70 degrees on the handle side or more than 20 degrees on the non-handle side may result in water spillage.
  • Tilting the unit without running the final purge may result in water spillage.
