The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/800 converts 12V DC from leisure or automotive batteries into clean, dependable 120V or 230V AC power, designed for off-grid living, boats, RVs, and emergency backup. With a built-in GFCI duplex outlet and VE.Direct monitoring, it delivers safe, straightforward setup and operation.
-
Continuous power: 650 W (800 VA) continuous, with peak power up to 1500 W for short bursts
-
Output voltage and frequency: selectable 230VAC or 120VAC at 50 Hz or 60 Hz with ±3% accuracy
-
Built‑in GFCI outlet: outlet‑level protection for added safety
-
VE.Direct monitoring: monitoring and configuration via computer or mobile devices (Bluetooth/USB options available)
-
Fully configurable protections: low battery alarm/trip, low voltage cut‑off/restart, dynamic cut‑off based on load, adjustable battery charge detect
-
Real‑time diagnostics: input/output voltage, load %, and alarms with diagnostic indicators
-
Reliability: proven full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology; short‑circuit tolerant and protected against overheating
-
High start‑up power: capable of starting loads such as LED drivers, halogen lamps, or power tools without tripping
-
ECO mode: energy‑saving standby when load falls below min load (15 W); auto wakes every 2.5 seconds with adjustable stop/start power
-
Remote On/Off: control via a remote two‑pole switch or between battery plus and the connector
-
Load transfer: compatible with Victron Automatic Transfer Switches (Filax) for seamless switchover in multi‑source setups (<20 ms)
-
Efficiency & idle power: up to 90–91% efficiency; idle consumption around 6.5–9.5 W; ECO mode further reduces idle draw
-
Physical design: steel chassis with a blue plastic cover (RAL 5012); battery connections via screw terminals; rugged for harsh environments
-
Operational specs: input DC ranges 9.2–17 V, 18.4–34 V, or 36.8–62.0 V; configurable DC low shut‑down/restart; operating temperature −40 to +65°C with fan‑assisted cooling; max continuous 650 W at 25°C (560 W at 40°C); peak 1500 W
This inverter delivers reliable AC power from a 12V battery bank, letting you run household appliances, tools, and electronics anywhere. It combines safety features like the built‑in GFCI and configurable protections with smart VE.Direct monitoring for proactive maintenance. ECO mode saves energy when idle, while remote control, transfer‑switch compatibility, and real‑time diagnostics provide flexible, scalable use in off‑grid setups, boats, or RVs. Its robust transformer design and high start‑up power ensure common devices start smoothly without tripping, and the wide operating temperature range supports use in demanding environments.
