Inverter Chargers For
Off-Grid Power Systems

Inverter chargers combine an inverter and a battery charger in one complete unit. They can be used with a solar PV array or wind turbine power system or when another there is another AC power source available, such as a diesel generator. They can operate as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). In essence they offer all the features of an inverter and charger in one compact enclosure. These intelligent devices can behave either as an inverter or a charger and can switch between one and other as required. Inverter-chargers can be connected to the electricity grid, but they are not grid tied inverters.


Victron Inverter Chargers and energy products are ideal for Industrial, Automotive, Marine, Commercial and Off Grid (stand-alone applications). They are the complete inverter charger and have been developed to provide clean, silent power where space is a premium and that must work with sensitive electrical equipment. Available in from 800 - 5000 VA.

All features of a sine wave inverter and charger in one compact enclosure. UPS functionality: seamless transfer from external AC to inverter supply.

A unique AC power management system will prevent overload of a limited AC source. First, battery charging will automatically be reduced when otherwise an overload would occur. The second level will boost the output of a generator or
shore side supply with power taken from the battery: where peak power is often required only for a limited period, the Phoenix MultiPlus will make sure that insufficient shore or generator power is immediately compensated for by power from the battery.

Models range from 800VA to 3000VA per module. Scalable: any number of units can be paralleled in single phase, split phase and three phase configuration.



Phoenix MultiPlus 12 - 24 - 48V
Phoenix MultiPlus Compact 12 - 24 Volt


The MultiPlus is a powerful true sine wave inverter, a sophisticated battery charger that features adaptive charge technology and a high-speed AC transfer switch in a single compact enclosure. Models range from 800VA to 3000VA.

Quattro 12 - 24 - 48v 5KVA

Two AC inputs with integrated transfer switch. The Quattro can be connected to two independent AC sources, for example shore-side power and a generator, or two generators. The Quattro will automatically connect to the active source.

EasyPlus 12 - 1600 - 70


The Phoenix EasyPlus is a multifunctional energy system consisting of a powerful sinewave inverter, a sophisticated battery charger, a high speed AC transfer switch and AC distribution in a single light weight and compact enclosure.
