{"product_id":"qbp809273","title":"Victron Energy Phoenix Pure Sine Wave Inverter, 3000VA, 230V Output, VE.Bus","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 3000VA 230V VE.Bus is a pure sine wave inverter range for converting a 12V, 24V, or 48V battery bank into 230V AC power on board. It is built for boat electrical systems where clean AC output matters for refrigeration, tools, galley appliances, entertainment equipment, and other loads that do not run directly from DC power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll three versions in this range provide 3000VA output at 25 degrees C, with 230V AC output at 50Hz and a peak power rating of 6000W. VE.Bus communication supports system integration, remote monitoring, and parallel or three-phase configurations when the installation calls for more than a single inverter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe aluminium enclosure has an IP21 rating, so the inverter belongs in a dry, ventilated electrical space rather than an exposed cockpit, bilge, or washdown area. On a boat, that usually means mounting it close to the battery bank to reduce DC cable losses while still keeping enough airflow around the unit for cooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure sine wave 230V AC output for running sensitive electronics and common onboard AC appliances from a DC battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3000VA continuous output at 25 degrees C, with 6000W peak power for loads with higher start-up demand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable for 12V, 24V, and 48V DC systems, so the inverter can match the vessel battery architecture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVE.Bus communication port for remote monitoring, system integration, and parallel or three-phase operation in compatible Victron systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgrammable relay can be used for functions such as alarm signalling or generator start control within a properly configured installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium enclosure with IP21 protection rating for installation in a dry, well-ventilated electrical compartment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall-mountable cabinet with 362 x 258 x 218 mm dimensions, useful where electrical locker space is planned around fixed equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis inverter range is offered in three DC input voltage configurations. Each version keeps the same 3000VA class, 230V AC output, VE.Bus integration, enclosure size, and installation style, while the battery bank voltage changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main difference is the DC input voltage, which should match the vessel battery system and the rest of the charging and distribution equipment on board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePIN123020000: 12V DC input voltage. This version fits 12V house battery systems, which are common on smaller cruising boats and many refit installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePIN243020000: 24V DC input voltage. This version suits 24V battery banks, often used where higher AC loads and lower DC current are part of the system layout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePIN483020000: 48V DC input voltage. This version fits 48V energy systems where reduced DC current and larger inverter-based loads are part of the vessel design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis inverter should be installed by a qualified marine electrical professional in a dry, heat-resistant, well-ventilated area. Victron specifies free space around the unit for cooling, and vertical mounting is preferred where the layout allows it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBattery cable sizing, DC fuse selection, grounding, and AC output protection are critical on a 3000VA inverter. The chassis must be grounded, and the AC installation should use the correct protection devices for the vessel and local electrical rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eElectrical and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VE.Bus port gives the inverter a practical place in a larger Victron-based onboard power system. It can be configured with compatible Victron interfaces and monitoring devices, and the relay settings can be adjusted for system-level functions such as alarms or generator start signalling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an inverter only, not an inverter charger. Where shore power transfer, battery charging, or an integrated AC transfer switch is required, the rest of the vessel power system needs to include suitable equipment for those functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis inverter range is a good match for boats that need dependable 230V AC from a house battery bank without relying on shore power or a generator for every AC load. It is especially relevant for cruising boats, workboats, and offshore systems where refrigeration, tools, chargers, and household-style equipment may be used away from the dock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the enclosure is IP21-rated, it should be treated as electrical-room equipment rather than deck hardware. Keeping it dry, ventilated, and close to the batteries will help the installation perform properly in the vibration and temperature changes found on board.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"12V","offer_id":52581958680757,"sku":"QBP809273-V1","price":955.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"24V","offer_id":52581958713525,"sku":"QBP809273-V2","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"48V","offer_id":52581958746293,"sku":"QBP809273-V3","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1336176_qbp809273.webp?v=1780201755","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp809273","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
