Inverter 48/3000

The Victron Energy Inverter 48/3000 delivers a continuous power output of 3000 VA, which corresponds to 2400 W at an ambient temperature of 25°C.

This device is a pure sine wave inverter. It produces high-quality alternating current, suitable for powering all types of sensitive electronic equipment.

The Victron Energy Inverter 48/3000 is designed to operate with a 48 V DC input voltage.

The inverter provides an output voltage of 230 VAC ± 2% and a frequency of 50 Hz ± 0.1%.

The integrated SinusMax technology gives the inverter high starting power. This advantage is crucial for handling demanding inductive loads, such as refrigeration compressors or electric motors, which require a high inrush current at startup.

No, the Phoenix Inverter 48/3000 is a dedicated pure sine wave inverter. It does not include an integrated battery charger, AC transfer switch, or PowerAssist/ESS functionalities, unlike other multifunctional models from Victron Energy.

In ECO mode, the inverter switches to standby when the connected load drops below a predefined value (minimum load: 15W). Once in standby, it briefly powers back on (adjustable, default every 2.5 seconds) to check if the load has increased. If the load exceeds a predefined level, the inverter remains on.

The inverter is equipped with several protections to ensure its reliability and safety:

Output short-circuit protectionOverload protectionProtection against excessively high or low battery voltagesProtection against excessive temperatures (overheating)Protection against excessive DC ripple

The inverter operates within an ambient temperature range of -40 to +65°C. It features a fan-assisted cooling system. Note that derating of 1.25% per °C applies above 40°C.

For optimal performance, the inverter must be installed on a flat surface. It is imperative to avoid any contact with water, direct exposure to sunlight, and humid or dusty environments. The ambient temperature must be between -20°C and 40°C (humidity < 95% without condensation).

A minimum of 10 cm of free space must be left around the inverter to ensure adequate ventilation and prevent any obstruction of the airflow. This prevents the device from overheating.

The inverter uses screw terminals for connecting DC battery cables, which makes installation easier without special tools.

Yes, a remote on/off switch can be connected to a dedicated bipolar connector on the inverter.

The inverter chassis must be grounded. The grounding conductor, connecting the chassis ground terminal to a reliable ground, must have a cross-sectional area at least equal to half that of the conductors used for the battery connection.

No, the inverter’s AC output must never be connected to another AC power source, whether it is a domestic wall outlet or a generator.

To fully utilize the inverter's capacity, it is recommended to use batteries with sufficient capacity and battery cables with adequate cross-sectional area. If the DC cable length exceeds 1.5 meters, an additional DC fuse or circuit breaker must be installed near the battery.

Yes, this inverter offers expansion capabilities. Up to six units can be connected in parallel to increase total output power. It is also possible to configure three units for a three-phase output to adapt the system to the specific needs of the installation.

Yes, thanks to its high starting power and SinusMax technology, the inverter is perfectly suited for starting difficult inductive loads, such as refrigeration compressors, pumps, or electric motors, which require significant current at startup.
