DucoBox Focus
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

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.
