Professional pure sine wave power for Australian 230V appliances

Designed for dependable off grid and mobile power, the Victron Phoenix inverter with VE.Direct converts 12V DC from your house battery system into stable 230V AC suitable for Australian and New Zealand plug loads. It is a practical choice for caravans, 4WD touring, marine electrical systems, service vehicles, and remote cabins where power quality, low standby draw, and clear fault information matter.

Unlike modified sine wave inverters that can cause audible noise, extra heat, or compatibility issues with sensitive equipment, this unit produces a pure sine wave output that better suits electronics such as chargers, laptops, networking gear, CPAP devices, and many modern appliances. The result is cleaner power delivery with fewer surprises when you plug in the devices you rely on.

Handles real world loads with high surge capability

Many loads draw a brief start up surge that is well above their running wattage. This inverter is engineered with a robust topology and high peak power capability to help start challenging loads such as LED lamp power supplies, small tools, and other low power appliances with brief inrush demand. For installers and experienced users, this reduces the risk of nuisance shutdowns and makes system sizing more forgiving when loads vary.

Energy aware operation with configurable ECO mode

In battery powered systems, idle consumption adds up. ECO mode helps minimise wasted energy by reducing power draw when the connected load is low, then quickly returning to normal operation when demand increases. Sensitivity and timing can be adjusted to suit your application, whether you are supporting always on standby loads or intermittent tool use.

Monitoring and configuration via VE.Direct

The integrated VE.Direct port enables monitoring and configuration using compatible Victron interfaces such as a computer connection or an optional Bluetooth dongle. This makes it easier to match inverter behaviour to your battery chemistry and operating preferences, including setting low voltage alarms, cut off and restart thresholds, and other key parameters. It is also a useful diagnostic tool for tracking input and output conditions, load level, and alarms during commissioning and troubleshooting.

Designed for safer, simpler installation

Installation is straightforward with secure screw terminal DC connections and a built in remote on off input for convenient control from a switch panel. The enclosure is intended for indoor or protected mounting locations and incorporates multiple electronic protections to help safeguard the inverter and connected equipment under fault conditions such as overload, short circuit, over temperature, and abnormal battery voltage.

Key features
