Description
Active mold remediation projects and fire damage dry-outs generate airborne soot that contaminates clean commercial building zones. The Phoenix Guardian R HEPA Air Scrubber pulls 500 CFM through true HEPA media to establish negative pressure. It uses dry pleated filtration, requiring you to avoid running the unit in wet slurry environments or water spray containment areas.
Rotomolded high-density polyethylene constructs the bright blue upright housing cabinet, resisting chemical corrosion, water drops, and jobsite impact gouges. An energy-efficient motorized impeller draws 2.4 full-load amps on standard 115V 60Hz single-phase wall circuits, moving 250 to 500 CFM of air. Total dry bare tool weight measures 33 lbs. Exterior dimensions measure 22 inches long, 16 inches wide, and 19 inches tall with top handles.
Key Features of Phoenix 4031460
Restoration professionals buy Phoenix 4031460 air scrubbers to control hazardous mold spores, asbestos fibers, and demolition dust inside occupied buildings. Equipment pricing delivers true HEPA filtration in a compact rotomolded housing that stacks two high on service trucks.
- Certified true HEPA main filter media captures 99.97 percent of microscopic particles down to 0.3 microns.
- Variable airflow speed dials throttle air volume between 250 and 500 CFM to match containment room sizes.
- Two-stage pre-filters catch coarse dust and soot to extend the operational service life of inner HEPA filters.
- Rotomolded polyethylene housings withstand rough jobsite impacts, stairs, and truck ramp drops without cracking.
- Onboard GFCI daisy-chain receptacles allow linking up to six air scrubbers on one standard 15-amp circuit.
- Integrated intake and exhaust duct rings hold flexible ducting for positive or negative pressure air setups.
- Ergonomic molded top carry handles balance tool weight for one technician carrying gear up stairs.
Air Filtration Static Bench Metrics
Airflow bench testing confirms 500 CFM volume flow on high speed against 1.7 inches of water-gauge internal static resistance. Laser particle counter tests verify 99.97 percent collection efficiency on 0.3-micron particulate matter on initial pass. Motor electrical draw stabilizes at 2.2 running amps on 115V circuits with zero motor heat buildup. Operating sound meters record 65 dB at ten feet away. Rotomolded housing seams hold airtight seals up to 3.0 inches of static water-gauge negative pressure with zero unfiltered air bypass.
Abatement Usability Realities Maintenance
Transporting this 33 lb air scrubber takes one technician using the molded handle, with interlocking cabinet ribs allowing secure nesting on service trucks. Filter changes take hand pressure to slide filters into track grooves. Do not buy this air scrubber for explosive solvent vapors, hot metal sparks, or wet sanding slurries.
- Replace the paper pre-filter pad after each dirty drywall sanding or mold remediation shift.
- Vacuum the secondary pleated filter face using a soft brush nozzle once each week.
- Replace the primary HEPA filter cartridge whenever the differential pressure gauge indicates dirty media.
Factory Warranty Manifest Inclusions
Phoenix backs this commercial air scrubber with a 1-Year warranty on parts and electrical components, plus a 5-Year housing warranty. The package delivers the Guardian R air scrubber, pre-installed HEPA filter, pleated pre-filter, paper pre-filter pad, grounded power cord, and an illustrated abatement operations manual.
