6 L/min Instantaneous LPG Water Heater

The Ferroli Pegaso Eco 6 is an instantaneous LPG water heater. Rather than storing hot water in a cylinder, the appliance heats water as it passes through the heat exchanger.

Ferroli specifies:

• 6.0 L/min at ΔT25°C
• 5.0 L/min at ΔT30°C

Actual flow depends on factors such as incoming cold-water temperature, water pressure and the selected hot-water temperature.

For customers searching for a 6 L/min LPG water heater, the Pegaso Eco 6 is therefore a highly relevant model.

11.8 kW LPG Gas Water Heater

The Pegaso Eco 6 has a maximum heat capacity of 11.8 kW and a maximum useful output of 10.4 kW.

Its minimum heat capacity is 6.3 kW, while the minimum useful output is 5.4 kW. Ferroli specifies performance at maximum power of approximately 87%.

This makes the Pegaso Eco 6 the smaller-flow option in the Pegaso Eco range, alongside the higher-capacity Pegaso Eco 11.

LPG Fuel and Gas Supply

This version is intended for LPG operation.

Ferroli specifies:

• G31: 37 mbar
• G30: 29 mbar

The correct gas configuration must be confirmed for the intended installation and destination country. Gas appliances should be installed according to Ferroli’s instructions and applicable national regulations.

Static Caravan Water Heater

The Ferroli Pegaso Eco 6 LPG water heater is particularly relevant to static caravan applications.

Ferroli describes the Pegaso Eco 6 and 11 as suitable for most types of static caravan, subject to having a suitable fixed cold mains water supply.

Potential applications include:

• Static caravans
• Holiday lodges
• Park homes
• Suitable cabins
• Approved fixed LPG hot-water installations
• Other applications specifically permitted by the manufacturer

Ferroli notes that the Pegaso units may not be suitable for boats, touring vans and motorhomes. Always confirm suitability before purchase.

Class 6 Low-NOx LPG Water Heater

The Ferroli Pegaso Eco 6 is classified as a Class 6 Low-NOx gas water heater.

Ferroli’s technical data lists:

• NOx Class 6
• G20 emissions below 56 mg/kWh
• G31/G30 emissions below 72.8 mg/kWh

This makes the NOx classification an important specification when comparing LPG gas water heaters.

Battery-Powered Electronic Ignition

The Pegaso Eco 6 uses battery-powered electronic ignition.

Ferroli specifies a 3 V supply, so the ignition system does not require a conventional 230 V mains electrical connection.

Modulating Heat Output

The Pegaso Eco 6 uses modulating heat output and provides adjustment of both heating power and hot-water temperature.

Ferroli describes the appliance as having modulating heat power and ergonomic controls for adjusting power and hot-water temperature.

Copper Heat Exchanger

The Pegaso Eco uses a copper-pipe heat exchanger with an external aluminium anti-corrosion treatment.

This forms part of Ferroli’s design for the instantaneous hot-water system.

Compact Wall-Mounted Design

The Ferroli Pegaso Eco 6 is designed to provide instantaneous hot water in a compact wall-mounted package.

The manufacturer’s technical data lists an empty weight of approximately 8.5 kg, with an IPX4D protection rating.

Water Pressure

Ferroli specifies:

• Minimum operating pressure: 0.2 bar
• Maximum operating pressure: 10 bar

The installation should meet the manufacturer’s requirements and applicable local regulations.

Maximum Working Temperature

The Pegaso Eco 6 has a specified maximum working temperature of 65°C.

The appropriate hot-water temperature should be set according to the installation requirements and intended application.

Technical Specifications

These figures are based on Ferroli’s current published Pegaso Eco technical data.

Ferroli Pegaso Eco 6 vs Pegaso Eco 11

The Pegaso Eco range includes two main capacities.

Pegaso Eco 6

• 6.0 L/min at ΔT25°C
• 5.0 L/min at ΔT30°C
• 11.8 kW maximum heat capacity
• 10.4 kW maximum useful output

Pegaso Eco 11

• 10.8 L/min at ΔT25°C
• 9 L/min at ΔT30°C
• 21.1 kW maximum heat capacity
• 18.9 kW maximum useful output

The Pegaso Eco 6 is therefore the lower-flow model and can be appropriate where its specified output matches the hot-water requirement.
