aged, do not use. Always grasp the plug (not the
cord) to unplug.
Insert three-prong plug on power cord into a match-
ing electrically grounded outlet. Do not use adapter.
Never cut off third prong. Do not use an extension
cord.
The unit must be operated on a 115V/60Hz circuit

INTRODUCTION
The PHD 200 Dehumidifier reduces humidity in enclosed
structural environments by removing water vapor from
the air. With proper use, the PHD 200 can help to dry out
damp structural materials, insulation, and contents, and
maintain a healthy level of humidity. Using the PHD 200
may also prevent secondary damage caused by high humidity.

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 enclosed area. Place your dehumidifier away from obstructions, 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
Dri-Eaz at 800-932-3030.
TIP: Before installing in a crawlspace or other difficult to
access location, plug in the unit and run it for approximately half an hour to ensure proper operation.
Set up drain hose
The PHD 200 condensate pump connects to a 40 ft. (12
m) 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 bottom 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.

readouts. This is part of the unit’s self-diagnosis procedure and no user intervention is required.
Turn the unit on
The control panel on the PHD 200 dehumidifier has a
display and a touchpad with four keys. Press the
ON/OFF to turn the unit on. The unit will now go
through a compressor delay countdown (up to sixty seconds in duration) and a self-diagnostics process.
Once the compressor delay countdown and self-diagnostics are complete, the display will switch to normal
display mode.

INLET 00°F / INLET 00%
The first line of the display shows the total number of
hours the unit has been in operation. This value may be
reset to zero to track job hours (see “Job Hours Reset”
below). The second line of the display alternates between inlet temperature and inlet humidity.
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.
Startup display and normal display modes
When unit is first plugged in to AC power, the control
panel display will briefly cycle through a series of

Clean pump check valve and basin. In normal use,
dust can accumulate and can restrict airflow, reducing
performance and causing the unit to overheat. Clean
when dust accumulation is visible. Remove grills and
cover as shown in Fig. B. Use a vacuum cleaner with a
brush tool and a soft cloth to remove any debris. Take
care not to damage any interior components.
To maintain appearance, wipe interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning and a lasting, protective shine, use an automotive interior cleaner.
As Needed
Clean pump check valve and basin. If the unit displays
the message “ER9 PUMP BLOCKED PUMP & HOSE”,
the pump check valve and pump basin may need to be
cleaned. Remove grills and cover as shown in Fig. B.
Remove screws from pump base and lift out pump. Wipe
out pump basin with a damp cloth. Unthread barbed fitting with check valve and rinse fitting and check valve
with clean water. Reinstall barbed fitting into pump. Do
not overtighten. Reinstall pump on base. Reinstall cover
and grills.
Clean coils. With the cover removed, inspect both coils.
If excessive dust and debris is present, vacuum thoroughly and/or clean with coil cleaner.
