The screen can be removed from the unit by pulling the spring-loaded piano hinges. (FIG. 1) 3. All Phantom series have the Motor Fan Assembly (MFA) shipped internally mounted. 4. All units are equipped with (4) 3/8’’ threaded inserts on top for overhead installation (FIG. 2) 5. Determine the exact mounting locations to suspend the unit above the ceiling so that the unit is centered and parallel with the door opening. Use (4) threaded rods to suspend the enclosure to the ceiling. Note: When installed in the ceiling above the door, the air curtain must be moved 3/8” away from the wall for every 1" above the door height. 6. If applicable, extended wall mounting brackets are available for attaching the unit to a wall. 7. If applicable, for tandem installation (units longer than 72”) of products mounted side by side, allow no more than 6” between the two units. Note that (4) sets of threaded rods are used to suspend each unit to the ceiling or center mounting brackets are to be used for joining and top mounting tandem units. 8. Mount the product such that the discharge is flush with the ceiling. 9. All wires must be connected internal of the unit and some knockouts are provided. However, it may be necessary to create your own knockout, as required. 10. The unit must be wired per NEC and local codes. FIG 1 FIG. 2 Electrical Field Wiring 1. For electric models, reference the Heated Products Supplement. 2. The unit and any optional accessories must be wired with the proper voltage to the junction box per the wiring diagram. (FIG. 3, unheated products only) 3. All 3 phase motors are bi-directional, which means they can rotate in either direction. Follow directional arrows on the blower wheel housings for proper rotation. If the motor is rotating incorrectly, switch two of the 3 phase power or motor leads and the motor will rotate the opposite direction. Make sure all motors are turning in the same and proper direction. (FIG. 3) WARNING Precaution should be taken in explosive atmospheres.

operating at its peak performance and efficiency. Over time, the housing, air intake grille, air intake filter, blower wheels and motor(s) will accumulate a build up of dust, debris and other residue. It is imperative to keep these components clean. Failure to do so will not only lower operational efficiency and performance, but also reduce the useful life of the product. The time between cleanings depends on the application, location, and daily hours of use. On average, under normal use conditions, the product should require a thorough cleaning once every six (6) months. To clean the product, perform the following: 1. Verify the product has been disconnected from the power source. 2. Use a damp cloth and either a warm mild soapy water solution or bio-degradable degreaser, to wipe down the exterior components of the housing. 3. To access the interior of the product, remove the air intake grille(s) and/or air intake filter(s). This is accomplished by removing the screws on the face of the air intake grille(s)/filter(s) and releasing the grille by pulling on the spring hinge. 4. Thoroughly clean the air intake grille(s) and clean or replace the intake filter(s). 5. Thoroughly wipe down the motor, blower wheels and blower wheel housings. Be careful not to spray the motor with a water hose. 6. The motor(s) require no additional lubrication. They are permanently lubricated and feature double sealed ball bearings. 7. To re-install the product, reverse the procedures above. 8. Reconnect the power source to the product. 9. If you have any questions regarding the maintenance of the product, contact the manufacturer. SPECIAL APPLICATIONS Outdoor Installation For outdoor unit special consideration may be required for enclosure, motor, wheel, and other components to minimize damage caused by exposure to the outdoor elements. Contact factory for special construction and costing. Freezer and Cooler Installation Air curtain must be mounted on the warm side for optimal performance. Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is strongly recommended to control the air curtain air flow velocity at the floor level. High humid areas may require de-humidifier or additional defrost cycle to minimize condensation and freezing for freezer applications. We recommend the air curtain unit to not replace doors but work in conjunction with door opening sequence cycle. Contact factory for details. DISCLAIMER Mars reserves the right to change specifications and product design without notice. Such revisions do not entitle the buyer to corresponding changes, improvements, additions, or replacements for previously purchased equipment. L. VERY IMPORTANT Using a clamp meter, measure the amperage to each motor and ensure that they do not exceed the amperage listed on the product label. M. If applicable, adjust the air intake grille(s) such that the output air stream reaches the floor. For temperature control and environmental separation applications, the air stream should reach the floor with sufficient strength to create an air seal around the door opening without creating turbulent mixing of the inside and outside air. If applicable, adjust the air intake grille(s) such that the output air stream reaches the floor. For flying insect control applications, the air stream should reach the floor with maximum strength. If after proper installation and adjustment, the product appears to be producing too little or too much air for the application, contact the manufacturer. WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons, observe the following: A. Maintenance is to be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes and regulations and are experienced with this type of product. B.
