The Vetus DBOX is a synthetic dorade box designed as an optional accessory for Vetus ASV, SSV and SSVL series air suction vents. A dorade box allows ventilation air to flow into the engine compartment while preventing water ingress — essential for offshore and bluewater vessels.
Marine diesel engines require significant ventilation air to dissipate residual heat — approximately 6.1 m³ per kW (4.5 m³ per hp) per hour at a maximum air velocity of 3 m/sec. Vetus air suction vent model numbers correspond to the engine horsepower rating they are designed to suit.
