SJRV FV2000 Caravan Fridge Vent – 250 × 490mm Cut-Out

Medium Caravan Fridge Vent in Black or White

The SJRV FV2000 is a passive caravan fridge ventilation grille with a 250 × 490mm wall cut-out. It provides an opening for airflow through a suitable refrigerator compartment, helping warmed air move away from the fridge’s cooling components.

Larger than the compact FV1000, the FV2000 suits installations requiring a wider and taller ventilation opening without built-in electric fans.

Choose black or white to complement your caravan or motorhome. All height and width measurements below are stated as Height × Width.

Passive Airflow Without Electrical Wiring

The FV2000 allows air to pass through its ventilation grille without a motor or power connection.

In a refrigerator installation designed with lower and upper vents, the lower opening admits replacement air while warmed air rises towards the outlet. The FV2000 can form part of that arrangement where its size and design meet the refrigerator’s installation requirements.

There is no additional electrical load from the vent itself.

Help Release Heat Behind the Fridge

A caravan refrigerator needs a clear path for heat to leave its cooling components. Restricted ventilation can allow warmed air to accumulate inside the surrounding compartment.

The FV2000 provides a passive opening as part of that airflow path. Effective ventilation also depends on the position of the inlet and outlet, cabinet clearances and the route air takes behind the refrigerator.

Cut-Out Size and Overall Dimensions

• Wall cut-out: 250mm high × 490mm wide.

• Overall frame: 278mm high × 518mm wide.

• Overall depth: 42mm.

The cut-out measurement describes the required opening in the caravan wall. The overall measurement describes the outside of the vent assembly.

For a replacement installation, compare the existing opening, corner shape, fixing arrangement and available frame space with these dimensions.

Black or White Finish

The FV2000 is available in black or white through the product options.

Both finishes have the same listed dimensions and passive ventilation design, allowing you to choose the colour that suits your caravan exterior.

Choosing Between FV1000, FV2000 and FV3000

Choose the FV2000 when you need the medium-size passive vent with a 250 × 490mm cut-out.

The SJRV FV1000 small caravan fridge vent provides a more compact passive option with a 156 × 451mm cut-out.

The SJRV FV3000 fridge vent with twin 12V fans adds powered extraction. It has the same listed 250 × 490mm cut-out as the FV2000, with a greater overall depth of 58mm to accommodate its fan assembly.
