- High Surge Capacity: Handles startup surges up to 6,000W, supporting demanding appliances like refrigerators, compressors, and power tools.
- Parallel and 3-Phase Operation: Connect up to six inverters in parallel or configure for 3-phase operation, providing scalable solutions for larger power needs.
- VE.Bus Communication Port: Enables integration with Victron's monitoring and control systems, offering remote management and detailed system performance insights.
- Robust Construction: Designed for durability and reliability in harsh environments, with comprehensive safety features against overload, short circuits, and temperature extremes.
- Advanced SinusMax Technology: Combines high-frequency and line-frequency designs to achieve superior performance and efficiency.
Enhanced Performance and Flexibility
The Phoenix 3000 VA 12V Inverter is built using Victron's SinusMax technology, a hybrid approach that combines high-frequency and line-frequency technologies. This results in a compact, lightweight inverter capable of delivering high start-up power, making it suitable for challenging loads like compressors and electric motors.
For systems requiring higher power, the inverter supports parallel and 3-phase operation, allowing the connection of up to six units for increased capacity. For example, six 12V 5000VA units can provide up to 30kVA (24kW), making it suitable for large-scale energy needs.
Comprehensive Monitoring and Control
The VE.Bus communication port simplifies integration and control. By using the optional MK3-USB VE.Bus to USB interface, users can connect the inverter to a PC for configuration and monitoring. Adjust settings such as output voltage, frequency, and alarm thresholds, and gain real-time insights into system performance—a valuable feature for complex installations.
Energy Efficiency and Safety
The inverter achieves a maximum efficiency of 93%, ensuring that minimal energy is wasted during conversion. Its low standby power consumption further enhances energy savings, making it ideal for off-grid and backup systems.
Built with safety in mind, the Phoenix 3000 VA includes comprehensive protection features:
- Overload Protection: Prevents damage from excessive power demands.
- Short Circuit Protection: Ensures safe operation during faults.
- Battery Protection: Safeguards against under-voltage and over-voltage conditions.
- Temperature Monitoring: Automatically reduces output or shuts down to prevent overheating.
