Product Details

The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 230 V VE.Bus is engineered for off-grid, backup and mobile power applications requiring high quality AC output from a 12 V DC battery supply. With its SinusMax hybrid high-frequency and line-frequency topology the unit delivers superior performance and efficiency.

The inverter supports parallel and three-phase operation (up to six units) to scale output for demanding installations.

With a VE.Bus port included, full system control and monitoring integration is easily achieved.

Parallel and 3-phase operation capability:
Up to 6 Phoenix Inverters can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 24V 5000VA units, for example, will provide 24kW / 30kVA output power. Operation in 3-phase configuration is also possible.
