The Victron MultiPlus 48/1600/20-16 230V VE.Bus is a powerful and space-saving energy solution that combines a pure sine wave inverter, intelligent adaptive battery charger, and fast AC transfer switch in one compact unit. Engineered for reliable performance and efficient power management, it’s well-suited for off-grid systems, mobile applications, or backup setups where both durability and functionality are crucial.
Features:
- True sine wave inverter, adaptive battery charger, and AC transfer switch in one unit.
- Supports up to 6 units in parallel or 3-phase configuration.
- PowerControl prevents generator or shore overload by managing power use.
- PowerAssist boosts limited shore/generator power with battery support during peaks.
- Four-stage adaptive charging for Lithium, AGM, Gel, and Flooded batteries.
- Dual battery charging for starter or auxiliary batteries.
- High start-up power for heavy loads like LED lamps and power tools.
- Search Mode reduces power consumption during low/no load.
- Programmable alarm relay and remote on/off control.
- Easy on-site setup with DIP switches; advanced remote monitoring via GX devices and VRM portal.
