2.1 Transporting
The Phoenix FireBIRD Compact 20 must
always be upright when transported by
vehicle. The Compact 20 is equipped
with rubber corners to permit stacking
for storage. If units are transported, they
must be secured with restraining straps
to prevent damage and possible injury.
2.2 Electrical Requirements
The Phoenix FireBIRD Compact 20 requires a 120VAC outlet
to power the onboard blower, control and 1st heater circuit.
Three aditional heating elements are separately powered by
additional cords and receptacles.
120VAC heating elements each require cord connection
to appropriate receptacles rated at 15A or more. One cord
and receptacle are required per heating element. Power
cords should be appropriately sized. POWER CORDS MUST
BE 12 GA MINIMUM AT 25 FT OR LESS, GREATER THAN
12 GA AT LONGER LENGTHS, AND MUST HAVE A THREE-
BLADE GROUNDING-TYPE PLUG. An adapter is available for
4
USEPHOENIX.COM | 800-533-7533
connecting to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding
lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
The adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded
receptacle is available.
2.3 Ducting
The Phoenix FireBIRD Compact 20 can be ducted at the
inlet, the outlet or both. The FireBIRD Compact 20 inlet and
outlet duct are designed to accommodate 8” flexible duct.
When selecting flexible ducting keep in mind anticipated
outlet temperatures. Air temperature increase is typically 50
to 80 degrees F. Adding ducting decreases airflow which can
increase outlet temperatures by up to 40 additional
degrees F.
NOTE: It is strongly discouraged to use mylar ducting as this
could burn and cause a fire.
2.4 Control Panel
Fan Mode Switch: This switch allows the user to operate in
‘FAN ON’ or ‘FAN AUTO’ mode. In ‘FAN ON’ mode, the blower
will remain on whenever the unit is energized. This mode
is recommended for normal operation where constant
air circulation is desired. In ‘FAN AUTO’ mode, the blower
will only energize when there is a demand for heat from
the remote thermostat connection. To use this mode, the
CONTROL POWER switch must be set to ‘THERMOSTAT
CONTROLLED.’ This mode is recommended for applications
that do not require constant air circulation during heating.
Control Power Switch: The CONTROL POWER switch can be
used to turn the unit ON, OFF, or set the unit to be controlled
by an external thermostat. In ‘ALWAYS ON’ mode, the
Compact 20 uses an internal thermostat preset at 140F.
Heat will continue to be produced until the air flowing into
the inlet reaches 140F. At this point, internal safeties will
turn off the heating elements until the inlet air temperature
reaches 130F. In ‘THERMOSTAT CONTROLLED’ mode, the
Compact 20 looks for a closed circuit at the THERMOSTAT
connection on the front of the control panel. Any dry contact
switch or the included remote thermostat with 25’ of wire
can perform this function.
Start/Reset Switch: The START/RESET Switch is used to
enable the Compact 20 to produce heat. If at any time
power to the control circuit is lost or if a fault condition
occurs, the Compact 20 will go into the FAULT/NOT
RUNNING mode. Pushing the START/RESET switch will
energize the control circuit and restart the Compact 20.
OK/Running Lamp: The OK/RUNNING lamp will illuminate
when the control circuit is energized. If the lamp is lit, the
Compact 20 is under the control of either the internal or
external thermostat (depending on which thermostat is
selected with the control power switch). In this state, the
heater will be on until it reaches cycling temperatures
(130F-140F) and will then self-regulate at this range.
FAULT/NOT RUNNING Lamp: If the FAULT/NOT RUNNING
lamp is lit, the contactor control circuit is not energized,
which will disable the heater circuits and no heat will be
produced.
Hour Meter: The digital hour meter measures the cumulative
time that the unit is turned on to tenths of an hour. It stores
and displays the total when the unit is unplugged. It resets
to zero after 99,999.9 hours of operation.
Heat ON/OFF Switches: These switches individually
control the heating elements. Each switch connects and
disconnects the power from the receptacle next to it. These
switches are lighted to indicate when power is connected
and the corresponding heating element is on.
Remote Thermostat Connection: There are two spring
loaded terminals for connecting the thermostat wiring on
the control panel. Connect one wire to each terminal. For
applications where the FireBIRD Compact 20 is placed
outside the space to be heated (e.g. ducting heat into a
chamber), the 25’ cord allows you to place the thermostat
inside the heated space.

USEPHOENIX.COM | 800-533-7533
In addition to the included thermostat, any dry-contact
switch or other type of control that connects the terminals
together will cause the heating elements to run. The
thermostat circuit is low voltage (24VAC). DO NOT CONNECT
POWER TO THE THERMOSTAT TERMINALS.
3 Maintenance
3.1 Air Filter
The Phoenix FireBIRD Compact 20 is equipped with a
pleated fabric air filter that must be checked regularly. The
standard filter is a MERV-11 high efficiency filter. Operating
the FireBIRD Compact 20 with a dirty or obstructed filter will
reduce airflow eventually causing the heating element to
shut off. Installing a clean filter or removing the obstruction
to restore airflow will allow the heating element to operate
again.
The filter can generally be vacuumed clean several times
before needing replacement. Replacement filters can be
ordered from the factory or purchased locally if available.
WARNING: DO NOT operate the unit without the filter or
with a less effective filter as the heating coils inside the unit
could become clogged and require disassembly to clean.
4 Service
WARNING: Servicing the Phoenix FireBIRD Compact 20 with
its high voltage circuitry presents a health hazard which
could result in death, serious bodily injury, and/or property
damage. Only qualified service people should service this
unit.
Do not operate the unit without the front cover in place. High
voltage is present, heater burnout may result.
4.1 Technical Description
The compact 20 uses a wound nichrome heating element to
provide multiple heat settings depending on the application
requirements or available power. The heating elements
are operated by contactors operated by a 24VAC control
circuit. For safety, there are a set of thermal switches that
will de-energize the heating elements if the temperature
in the element chamber rises to an unacceptable level
caused by lack of airflow or high ambient temperature. An
additional safety switch limits the incoming air temperature
to approximately 140F. This switch shuts off the heating
elements and automatically resets when the temperature
falls to approximately 130F.
4.2 Troubleshooting
Low voltage heating circuits require dedicated 15A
minimum service for each circuit (up to 4 total).
Blower not running
1. Unit unplugged, no power to outlet
2. Control Switch not working
3. Wiring fault inside device
4. Defective blower or blower capacitor
Blower running but no heat when Ok/Running lamp is on
1. Power switch is set to “Thermostat” and no thermostat
is connected, or thermostat is open
2. High temperature limit reached (140°F)
3. Heating relays not operating
4. Wiring fault inside device
5. Defective heating element, pressure switch, or
temperature limit switch
Fault/Not Running lamp illuminated
1. Press Start/Reset button
2. Reduce the length of inlet or outlet duct (if ducted)
3. Check duct for kinks or sharp bends in inlet or outlet
duct (if ducted)
4. Impeller is obstructed or slow
5. Voltage is low
6. Create openings in heated cavities to reduce
backpressure.
