Detailed description

Designed for marine and mobile applications in recreational or semi-professional settings, the Mastervolt AC Master 12/1500 (230V) inverter delivers a 1500 W pure sine wave AC power supply. This model, part number 28011500, converts 12 V DC battery energy into a stable 230 V AC output, adjustable between 200, 220, 230, and 240 V at 50/60 Hz. It serves as a reliable and essential solution for environments where grid power is unavailable or unstable, offering an excellent value within Mastervolt’s AC Master range.

Performance and technical specifications

The Mastervolt AC Master 12/1500 provides a continuous output of 1500 W at ambient temperatures of 25 °C and 40 °C (cos phi 1). It handles peak loads up to 1730 W for 1 minute and 2650 W for 1 second, ensuring operation of demanding equipment. Its high efficiency of 93 % minimizes energy losses. Galvanic isolation is built-in, and typical harmonic distortion is below 3 %, delivering a pure sine wave output for sensitive equipment. For installation, a recommended battery capacity of >= 160 Ah is advised, with a nominal input current of 150 A and a minimum slow-blow DC fuse of 175 A. The minimum required cable cross-section is 50 mm².

This inverter features an automatic energy-saving system, reducing standby consumption to less than 0.1 A in sleep mode, compared to less than 1.8 A in ON mode, thereby extending battery life. Cooling is provided by a variable-speed fan, controlled by temperature and load, for quiet operation at low power levels. LED indicators provide information on battery voltage, status, and charge level. A dry contact is available for external alarms.

Design and protections

With compact dimensions of 248 x 421 x 83 mm (H x W x D) and a weight of 4.2 kg, the Mastervolt AC Master 12/1500 is designed for easy installation and minimal footprint, with horizontal bulkhead mounting. It has an IP21 protection rating. Safety is a priority with comprehensive protections against overheating, overload, short circuits, high or low battery voltage, and reverse polarity (protected by fuse). This model complies with CE, E-mark, and RCM standards. It is also compatible with the MasterBus system via a dedicated interface.

Positioning and applications

Within Mastervolt’s AC Master range, the 12/1500 (230V) model offers substantial power for 12 V systems, distinguishing itself from lower-output versions such as the 12/700 or 12/1000 W, and 24 V models. Unlike higher-power inverters in the same range (2500/3500 W) or Mastervolt’s professional Mastervolt Mass Sine series, it does not support paralleling for three-phase power or integrated AC transfer systems. It is therefore ideal for users seeking a standalone, reliable, and high-performance solution to power equipment such as lighting, cooktops, or power tools, without the complexity of multi-inverter setups. Its applications include recreational vehicles, boats, service vehicles, mobile offices, and off-grid sites.
