IQ Power Fantom

5201292 Rev A

5. OPERATION 

Turn unit on with main power switch, located adjacent to the line cord.  After the 

Fantom goes through an automatic point cleaning cycle, it will begin operating.  The 

fan speed may be adjusted with the fan speed adjustment knob.  Use the highest 

airspeed the application allows.  This insures quick discharge times and maximum 

coverage.

Indicator Lights

Figure 11. Fantom Indicator Lights and Adjustments

Two sets of indicator lights are on the Fantom Wide Blower.  One set is visible 

through the unit face label.  The second set is located in the connector bay, above 

the User Interface.  This set is visible from the side of the unit.

Power

•  A steady green Power light indicates the unit is powered and active.
•  A blinking green light indicates the unit is in standby.
•  A rapidly flashing green light indicates the unit has received a command 

from the Control Station.  The rapid flashing only lasts for several seconds.

Warning

•  A steady yellow Warning light indicates the internal monitoring and control 

circuits are approaching the limits for normal operation (the unit is still 

in closed-loop control).  The unit may need to be cleaned or otherwise 

serviced.
