    Overview

    The Stiebel Eltron DHCE 6/50 is a compact instantaneous single-phase electric water heater designed to deliver dependable hot water for basin applications where space, efficiency, and controlled temperature matter. Electronically controlled operation helps it respond quickly to demand while supporting energy and water savings, making it a practical choice for modern residential or light commercial settings. With selectable output temperatures of 40°C, 45°C, and 50°C, it provides convenient control without the need for an external temperature control device, while delivering hot water not exceeding 50°C in accordance with AS3498.

    Its low 1.5 L/min switch-on flow rate makes it especially well suited to low flow outlets, helping ensure hot water is available even when demand is modest. The compact body supports flexible installation close to the point of use, which can help reduce thermal losses through pipework and improve overall system responsiveness. The unit also removes the need for a flue, ventilation, or safe tray, simplifying installation planning in suitable applications.

    Built for single-phase 240V connection, the DHCE 6/50 has a 7.1 kW rated output and a 30 Amp rated current, combining strong performance with a small footprint. Its IP25 rating, WaterMark approval, and compliance with relevant installation standards add confidence for specifiers and installers. For projects requiring an efficient, space-saving water heating solution with dependable temperature delivery, the DHCE 6/50 presents a smart and user-friendly option.
    Electronically Controlled Efficiency

    Electronic control helps optimise power and water use by responding to demand with precision. This supports efficient performance, consistent operation, and a practical hot water solution for installations where energy savings and reliable delivery are both important.

    Low Flow Activation

    With Low Flow Activation at just 1.5 L/min, the DHCE 6/50 is well-suited to low-flow basin applications. It ensures consistent hot water delivery even when water usage is minimal, making it ideal for efficient outlets with reduced demand or restricted flow conditions.

    Selectable Temperature Convenience

    Three preset temperature options of 40°C, 45°C, and 50°C make everyday use straightforward. Users can choose a suitable setting for the application, while the appliance delivers hot water not exceeding 50°C in accordance with AS3498.

    Compact Installation Flexibility

    The compact design supports installation close to the point of use, helping reduce heat loss through pipework and improve response time. With no flue, ventilation, or safe tray required, planning is simpler in suitable spaces.

    Questions & answers

    Should I purchase this unit if I use just for the sink Tap and Miele diswahasher? Thanks. Sylvia · 2020-03-02
    Good morning, Thank you for this question you should have the dishwasher connected to its own cold water connection as the inlet hose for the dishwasher is not rated to except hot water they are cold water connection only this will allow the dishwasher to heat the water to the correct wash temperature that you have selected on the control panel. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    When you remove the old hot water unit, do you install this new hot water unit on site? Otherwise I need book to other plumber to do it on the same time? or what should I do? Thanks Brian · 2019-09-15
    Good morning, Thank you for this question, this unit is best suited to a couple of hand basins not suitable for shower areas, you will need to have your plumber arrange the plumbing and check that there is enough power to operate this unit as it requires 30amp power. If you need this for shower areas then please look at the DEL series a plumber and electrician are still required due to amperage required. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
