How the PHD 200 works

The PHD 200 refrigerant dehumidifier uses a fan to draw
moist air in and condenses it into water that collects in a
tray and is automatically pumped out through a drain
hose.
The PHD 200 is preset to automatically maintain a 50%
RH level. To change this setting, see "Humidistat Mode"
below. Note: Unit automatically shuts off below 40% RH.
CONTROLS AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS

Set unit upright

NOTICE: Always store, transport, and use the unit in
a horizontal position. If the unit is ever placed in a
vertical position, return it to the horizontal position
and let it stand for at least 30 minutes before turning
it on.

Positioning a Dehumidifier

For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an en-
closed area. Place your dehumidifier away from obstruc-
tions, and keep it away from anything that could block
airflow into and out of the unit. For more information
about creating an optimum drying environment, contact
Legend Brands at 800-932-3030.
TIP: Before installing in a crawlspace or other difficult to
access location, plug in the unit and run it for approxi-
mately half an hour to ensure proper operation.

Set up drain hose

The PHD 200 condensate pump connects to a plastic
drain hose equipped with a quick-connect fitting for quick
attachment to the unit. To set up the hose, unwrap the
entire hose and place the unattached end in a sink,
drain, bucket or outdoors – anywhere that water can
drain out safely. Connect the other end of the hose to
the PHD 200. If you use a bucket or other container for
water collection, check it regularly to prevent overflows.
NOTICE: Uncoil and straighten the entire drain hose. Do
not leave any part of the hose coiled and do not place
the end of the hose higher than 3 ft. (1 m) above the bot-
tom of the unit. Also check for kinks or other obstructions
that might restrict the flow of water. Obstructions may
cause a water backup and result in overflows.

Plug in electrical cord

The PHD 200 should be plugged into a GFCI-protected
115 volt outlet rated for at least 15 amps. Always plug
the cord firmly into the unit first, and then plug the other
end into a suitable outlet.
