Hybrid inverter Victron Energy MultiPlus Compact 12/800/35 230V VE.Bus Inv./Char.
Victron MultiPlus are multifunctional devices that combine an inverter, charger and automatic power switch.
Models are available with a power from 800 VA to 5000 VA, which can be combined: up to 6 devices can be connected in parallel, three devices can be connected to operate in three-phase mode.
Advantages of MULTI PLUS voltage inverters
The output voltage shape is a pure sinusoid;
The “Power Control” function allows you to limit power consumption;
The “Power Assist” function allows you to increase power by connecting the battery;
“Frequency shift” function - frequency shift to use excess electricity;
Parallel configuration of up to 6 devices to increase power;
Three-phase configuration for three-phase networks 380/400/415 Volts;
Switching time between network and batteries is no more than 20 ms;
The “UPS” mode allows you to reduce switching time to 4-6 ms;
The energy saving function is implemented in two operating modes;
A programmable relay can be configured to automatically start the generator;
Inverter synchronization is available to control and configure complex operating patterns;
A built-in charger with four charging modes, a touch input and a temperature sensor will select the optimal mode for the connected batteries.

Power limiter - PowerControl
The limiter operates when connected to an alternating current (AC) source and controls the charging current of the batteries. The powerful charger, which is part of the MultiPlus inverter, assumes an increased load in the electrical network in which the inverter operates, but thanks to the PowerControl function, the load is reduced by limiting the charging current, which can be important when operating from a generator, coastal port network, etc. Intelligent control allows you to take into account consumers and use “excess” current to charge batteries.
Increased power - PowerAssist function
If the power of the variable power source is not enough to operate a specific consumer or group of consumers at the time of peak loads, the MultiPlus inverter automatically connects the battery pack, which leads to an increase in power and uninterrupted operation. This opportunity is often occurs during peak loads at the start of operation of “heavy” consumers. The PowerAssist function is available in all inverter models, but requires certain settings.
At the moment of load reduction, excess current from the variable power source is supplied to the charger, which recharges the batteries.
Charger
The MultiPlus inverter contains a powerful device for charging batteries, which operates in 4 modes. This allows for the most efficient use of batteries, which significantly extends their service life. Also “on board” MultiPlus there is a dedicated sensor input for measuring the voltage at the battery terminals (only for devices with a power of 3000 to 5000 VA) and an input for a temperature sensor, which is supplied in the kit.
