Description

DucoBox Focus

The DucoBox Focus DCV is the highest specification Smart demand controlled MEV unit available from Duco that extracts continually from the kitchen and bathrooms to one central unit to provides a quiet and efficient ventilation system

The difference between the DucoBox silent connect and the DucoBox Focus is that on top of the Connects controllability options is the possibility to Zone control up to 11 separate areas via the use of humidity or CO2 control valves positioned inside the unit

The unit does not come with any sensors and all options are at extra cost

Smart Demand controlled ventilation to each room with internal humidity or Co2 air control valves that will automatically increase or decrease the airflow to each zone depending on the programmed levels guarantee smart and efficient extraction only where and when needed and in the right quantity!

Manufactured in Belgium and developed with double wall construction to provide the quietist MEV available in Europe

With a high performance of 400 m3/hr. this unit is ideally suited for high quality new builds or high-end renovations with up to 7 extract points

The DucoBox silent has 7 x125mm connections and 1 x 125mm outlet

With the optional Q-V adaptors this unit is also suitable with the use of up to 7 x 90mm crushproof radial ductwork connections with antibacterial lining that will lower the installation time and comply to the latest building control regulations

BPC are MEV specialists and the original developers of MEV kits in the Uk and Ireland with lifetime technical support on our top-quality systems

Demand Controlled Ventilation

Historically, MEV-units used to run continuously: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At a single set speed This was deemed to be “ok” so the energy losses were deemed to be small.

DUCO feels that this “old school”-way-of-thinking is a thing of the past and decided to go a step beyond the “normal” operation mode of a “traditional” MEV system.

DUCO offers true “on demand” solutions which result in true energetically optimised ventilation solutions:

To only ventilate, when necessary, where it is necessary and as long as it is necessary!

The DucoBox Silent has an internal humidity sensor that detects high humidity and increases the performance until the set level is reached again

It is also possible to install a CO2 box sensor inside the DucoBox Silent UK

With an “on demand” DUCO-system, the occupant can always be assured to breathe the best possible indoor air, whilst also using the least amount of energy! DUCO brings you the SMARTEST ventilation solutions!

External Control Components

The DucoBox Silent Connect can be linked with the following external control components.

Control Valves

The control valves, optionally equipped with a sensor for CO2 or moisture measurement, can

be integrated into the extractor fan. These valves ensure that only polluted and/or humid air is

exhausted, where and when needed and in the right quantity.

The default set flow rate of the control valves can be manually changed during or after installation

via the display menu, the Duco Network Tool or Duco Installation App.

The range of valves are

  • Co2 Control valve 25,30,75 M3/hr
  • Humidity Control valve 50 M3/hr
  • Sensor less Control valve 25 M3/hr

Smart Demand User controller

There are 3 types of User controllers are available in either wireless or wired versions and in black or white face plates

  • Remote control (popular option)
  • Remote Control with CO2 sensor
  • Remote control with Humidity Sensor

The wired version will require the additional 24v Power supply

Duco Connectivity Board

The Duco Connectivity Board enables the Duco Installation App to be used on your phone or tablet

This PCB also enables interfacing for home automation and building management systems via REST API (locally or via the cloud) or Modbus TCP (locally). Both possible via Ethernet and Wi-Fi.

CO2 Room Sensors

The CO2 Room sensor is available in either wireless or wired versions and with black or white face plates

Switch Sensor

The Switch Sensor can perform either or both of the following functions:

Switch detection: the ventilation system will perform a function when closing a (two-pole) dry

contact. Suitable for toilet detection or overrule setting (only one function per switch sensor).

Repeater: the switch sensor is ideally suited as a repeater to strengthen the signal in the event of RF communication problems. In that case the switch sensor must be positioned in such a way that the distance to be bridged and/or interference by obstacles is reduced.

Silent Plus Kit

The Silent Plus Kit provides additional acoustic damping of up to 3 dB(A)!

The kit consists of three acoustic composite foam pads and three acoustic caps that are placed into the predesigned inserts inside the unit 

Quiet-Vent adaptors

The Quiet-Vent 125 to 90 adapters allow you to connect the 90mm radial pipe directly to the unit avoiding the use of a distribution box that will provide many benefits over using solid rigid ducting

Up to 7 number 90mm radial ducts can be used on the unit

This option will reduce installation time over solid rigid duct, reduce cost as there is no need for a distribution box, and comply with the latest building control requirements 

Fault Indicator

With the optional wall mounted fault indicator, you can be notified by colored indicator light when a fault is detected (max one per unit)

Boost switch

A boost switch will allow the user to manually increase or decrease the speed, there is a manual 2 speed and 3 speed switches available

Only one boost switch is recommended per unit and if the speed is set to high it will override any sensors and remain at that speed till manually reset to a lower speed

A boost switch is required to commission the unit

Duplicator control valves

The Duplicator control valves offer the possibility of duplicating spigots on the DucoBox Focus. This allows an additional zonal ventilation system to be built up with up to 11 connections (of which a maximum of 7 connections with a CO2 control valve). The connector supplied allows the wiring of these control valves to be easily looped through to the DucoBox Focus. And this, as always within DUCO systems, is invisible and behind the lid!

24v Power Supply

The Duco Power Supply 230VAC-24VDC/20W is the best solution to power Duco Wired components from a central 230V connection. The component comes with a surface-mounted junction box as standard. The sum of the peak power of all connected DUCO components can be 20W at most when using one Power Supply.

Coaxial cable set 8 m

The set comprises an 8 m long coaxial cable with pre-fitted connectors at both ends. This set can be used to relocate the Premium antenna, if necessary, to a spot where the RF range is optimal.

Duco Focus Tronic Plus Kit

The Tronic Plus kit provides the most popular accessories into one kit and consists of

  • One x Silent Plus Kit
  • One CO2 control valve
  • One Co2/Humidity control valve
  • One RF/ Wired wall controller
