Viessmann Vitogas 050 ECV-65 in practice

The ECV-65 is the entry size of the ECV variant: 65 MBH (19 kW) input and 55 MBH (16 kW) output at 83.1% AFUE, with three cast-iron sections, two burners and 2.6 USG of boiler water.

It weighs 243 lb (110 kg) and measures 340 x 502 mm (13½ x 19¾ in) with a 1030 mm (41½ in) height. Unlike the chimney-vented ECD, the ECV uses a 3 in. vent collar with a maximum equivalent vent run of 20 ft (6 m) and a 50 psig maximum operating pressure.

Best suited to

  • Existing ECV-65 installations needing printed ratings
  • Small residential loads where a 3 in. power-vent route suits the retrofit
  • Comparing the ECV variant against the ECD-65
