Description
The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/500 230V VE.Direct IEC is an efficient solution for converting 12V DC from leisure or automotive batteries into 230V AC power, capable of powering household and electronic appliances. With 500W continuous output and a 1000W peak power, this inverter is perfect for off-grid applications, RVs, boats, and emergency backup power.
Equipped with the VE.Direct communication port, the inverter allows for remote monitoring and configuration via VictronConnect app, compatible with Apple, Android, and computer devices. ECO mode ensures energy efficiency by switching the inverter to standby when the load is below 15W and then reactivating when the load exceeds a preset value. The inverter is also equipped with short circuit protection and overheating safeguards, ensuring long-lasting and reliable performance.
This model is equipped with the IEC-320 output socket, making it compatible with a wide range of standard appliances. The Filax Automatic Transfer Switch can be added for quick load transfer to another AC source with minimal disruption, ideal for devices that require continuous operation.
