RECEIVING AND INSPECTION 

 

Upon receiving the product, check to make sure all items 

are accounted for by referencing the Bill of Lading to 

ensure all items were received. Inspect each carton for 

shipping damage before accepting delivery.  Notify the 

freight carrier if any damage is noticed. The carrier will 

make notification on the delivery receipt acknowledging 

any damage to the product. All damage should be noted 

on all copies of the Bill of Lading which is countersigned 

by the delivering carrier.  A  Carrier  Inspection  Report 

should be filled out by the carrier upon arrival and a report 

given to the Traffic Department. If damaged upon arrival, 

file a claim immediately with the carrier.  Any physical 

damage to the unit after acceptance is not the 

responsibility of Mars Air Systems. 

 

UNPACKING 

 

Verify that all parts, components and accessories, and 

the correct quantities of each have been received. If any 

items are missing, report shortages to Mars Air Systems 

directly to arrange for obtaining the missing items. Again, 

verify quantities received against those on the Bill of 

Lading only, as multiple shipments may be involved. 

 

INSTALLATION 

 

Typical Mounting  –  Wall  or Ceiling  Mounted 

Horizontally Above the Door Opening 

1.  Gently remove all packaging materials, hardware, and 

all other accessories from interior of unit prior to 

operating. Severe unit damage will occur if these items 

are not removed prior to operation. 

2.  The intake screen can be opened by removing the two 

screws on the bottom of the unit. 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.
