Detailed description

Designed for demanding environments, the Victron Energy Phoenix Smart 12/2000 230V DC/AC inverter provides a pure sine wave output. It delivers a continuous power output of 1600 W (2000 VA) at 25°C, with a peak power capacity of 4000 W suitable for inductive loads. Its full-bridge architecture with a toroidal transformer ensures reliability and stable voltage and frequency (230 VAC, 50/60 Hz configurable).

Advanced Connectivity and Configuration

This model includes built-in Bluetooth for complete configuration and monitoring via the VictronConnect app on smartphone or tablet. It also features a VE.Direct communication port for wired connection to a computer (using a VE.Direct to USB interface cable) or to a GX monitoring device such as the Cerbo GX for extended system integration. Parameters such as low battery voltage alarm levels, dynamic cut-off thresholds, and output voltage are fully configurable.

Efficiency and Integrated Protections

The Phoenix Smart 12/2000 230V stands out with its intelligent ECO mode, which reduces standby power consumption to 0.6 W by entering sleep mode when the load is low, and reactivates automatically after a short period (2.5 seconds, adjustable). Its maximum efficiency reaches 92%. It is protected against output short circuits, overloads, high temperatures, excessively high or low battery voltages, and excessive input voltage ripple. Unlike lower-power Phoenix VE.Direct models that require an external Bluetooth dongle, the Phoenix Smart offers integrated connectivity. Unlike the MultiPlus models from the same brand, this is a pure inverter without integrated battery charging or transfer switching functions, focusing solely on power conversion with smart monitoring capabilities.

« Technical analysis of the Phoenix Smart 12/2000 converter »

The Victron Energy Phoenix Smart 12/2000 inverter/charger is a robust option for onboard or standalone power systems requiring a reliable AC source. Its ability to deliver a pure sine wave is critical for sensitive onboard electronics, whether navigation systems, computers, or household appliances. Its 4000 W peak power is an asset for starting inductive loads such as pumps or power tools, where less powerful inverters would fail.

The integration of Bluetooth and the VE.Direct port significantly simplifies commissioning and monitoring. The installer can precisely configure dynamic cutoff thresholds or the programmable relay for alerts or generator start triggers without requiring complex interfaces. This gives it an advantage over more basic models lacking this native connectivity. However, it is important to note that this model does not support parallel or three-phase operation, limiting it to single-phase medium-power installations. For battery charging or automatic transfer between AC sources, it must be paired with an external battery charger and a Filax transfer switch, or an alternative MultiPlus system should be considered.

Its compact design and IP21 metal housing make it suitable for discreet wall mounting in protected compartments. The easy-access terminals simplify battery and AC cable connections, enabling professional and rapid installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the continuous output power of this converter?

The Phoenix Smart 12/2000 230V converter delivers a continuous output power of 1600 W (2000 VA) at an ambient temperature of 25 °C.

Can this converter handle large power spikes?

Yes, this converter is designed to handle high startup power, with a peak power capacity of 4000 W. This is necessary to start loads such as power inverters for LED bulbs, halogen lamps, or electric tools.

What are the AC output voltage and frequency options?

The output voltage is 230 VAC ±2 %. The frequency is configurable at 50 Hz or 60 Hz ± 0.1 %.

How does the ECO mode work on the Phoenix Smart converter?

In ECO mode, the inverter switches to standby if the connected load drops below a preset value, reducing standby power consumption to 0.6 W. Once in standby, the inverter briefly powers on every 2.5 seconds (adjustable). If the load exceeds the preconfigured level, the inverter remains on.

What is the maximum efficiency of this converter?

The maximum efficiency of the Phoenix Smart 12/2000 230V inverter is 92% for the 12 V model.

What are the built-in protections in this converter?

The inverter is protected against:

Output short circuitsOverloadsExcessive battery voltageInsufficient battery voltageExcessive temperaturesPresence of 230 VAC on the inverter outputExcessive input voltage ripple

Can I remotely monitor and configure the converter?

Yes, the inverter integrates Bluetooth for full configuration and monitoring via the VictronConnect app on smartphone or tablet. It also features a VE.Direct port, allowing a wired connection to a computer (with a VE.Direct-to-USB interface cable) or to a GX monitoring device such as the Cerbo GX.

Can I turn the inverter on or off remotely?

Yes, the inverter has a remote on/off function. A remote ignition/stop switch or a relay contact can be connected to a two-pin connector. Alternatively, terminal H (left) of the two-pin connector can be switched to the battery’s positive terminal, or terminal L (right) can be switched to the battery’s negative terminal.

Which parameters can be configured via the VictronConnect application?

Via the VictronConnect app, you can configure parameters such as:

Low battery voltage alarmRestart and cut-off levels for low battery voltageDynamic cut-off (cut-off level based on load)Output voltage (210 – 245 V)Frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz)ECO mode detection level and ECO mode activation/deactivationAlarm relay

Is this converter also a battery charger?

No, the Phoenix Smart 12/2000 is a pure converter. It is a pure converter without battery charging or transfer switch functions, unlike the MultiPlus models from the same brand.

Is the converter moisture-resistant?

Yes, the converter is designed for a maximum humidity of 95% (no condensation).

What is the ingress protection (IP) rating of this converter?

The Phoenix Smart 12/2000 230V converter has an IP21 protection rating.
