Power essential devices anywhere with the Victron Phoenix Inverter 48VDC – 1200VA – 120VAC. Designed to run domestic equipment from leisure or automotive 48V batteries, this robust inverter delivers clean, reliable AC power with smart monitoring and flexible configuration for off-grid living or mobile setups. A trusted choice for campers, boats, RVs, and remote workstations needing a dependable 120 VAC supply through a standard NEMA 5-15R outlet.
Smart, configurable power you can trust
-
VE.Direct communication – monitor in- and output voltage, load percentage, and alarms. Connect to a computer with a VE.Direct to USB interface cable or pair with Apple/Android devices using a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle for on-the-go visibility and tuning.
-
Fully configurable – tailor low battery alarm trip and reset levels, low shut-down and restart thresholds, and dynamic cut-off to protect your battery while maximizing runtime.
-
Dynamic cut-off – load-dependent protection keeps your system balanced, safeguarding batteries without unnecessary power loss.
-
High startup power – capable of starting power-hungry loads such as LED drivers, halogen lamps, and power tools with ease.
-
Robust, efficient performance – continuous output of 1200 VA (1000 W at 25°C, 850 W at 40°C) with peak 2200 W for surge loads, up to 92% efficiency, and very low idle consumption.
-
Flexible output and frequency – selectable 230 VAC or 120 VAC with 50 Hz or 60 Hz operation (voltage and frequency within tight tolerances).
-
ECO mode – reduces idle power by entering standby below a preset min-load (as low as 15 W), with automatic wake-up cycles (default every 2.5 seconds) to keep your essential equipment running.
-
Remote on/off – connect a remote on/off switch for convenient control directly from your installation.
-
Protection you can rely on – safe operation from −40°C to +65°C (fan-assisted cooling) with humidity tolerance up to 95% non-condensing; built-in short-circuit and overheating protection.
-
Transfer readiness – designed to work with an Automatic Transfer Switch (Filax recommended for low-power inverters) for seamless switchover in under 20 milliseconds, keeping critical devices powered without interruption.
-
rugged enclosure – steel chassis with a blue RAL 5012 lid and screw-terminal battery connection for secure, durable installation.
