Falownik Phoenix VE.Direct Schuko 12V/375W

The Victron Energy VE.Direct Schuko* inverter (reference PIN121371200) is a device designed to convert a 12V DC voltage from a battery into 230V AC, usable to power various electrical equipment. It is equipped with a Schuko (CEE 7/4) type output socket.

This inverter provides a continuous power output of 375W at an ambient temperature of 25°C. If the ambient temperature reaches 40°C, the continuous power output is 300W.

The inverter can handle high startup loads, with a peak power of 600W for 2 seconds. This is useful for starting equipment requiring an initial power spike, such as certain power tools or LED lamp converters.

This inverter is equipped with a Schuko (CEE 7/4) type output socket, commonly used in Europe.

The Victron Energy VE.Direct 12/375 inverter operates with a DC input voltage range between 9.2V and 17V.

Yes, the AC output voltage is adjustable between 210V and 230V. The output frequency is also configurable at 50 Hz or 60 Hz, with an accuracy of +/- 0.1%.

The ECO mode reduces the inverter's no-load consumption to 1W (default). When the connected load drops below a preset value (minimum 15W), the inverter switches to standby mode. It then briefly powers back on (default every 2.5 seconds, adjustable interval) to check if the load has increased. If the load exceeds the preset level, the inverter remains on.

The Victron Energy VE.Direct 12/375 inverter has dimensions of 86 x 165 x 260 mm (height x width x depth) and weighs 3 kg.

The inverter integrates multiple protections to ensure its reliability and the safety of the installation:

Output short-circuit protection.Overheat protection (due to overload or high ambient temperature).Protection against excessively high or low battery voltages.Protection against excessive DC ripple.

The Victron Energy VE.Direct 12/375 inverter has an IP21 protection rating. This means it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm and against vertically falling water droplets.

The inverter is equipped with a VE.Direct communication port. You can connect it:

To a computer via a VE.Direct to USB interface cable (not included).To smartphones, tablets (Apple and Android) or MacBooks via a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle (not included).This connectivity allows you to configure low battery voltage alarm and cutoff thresholds, restart levels, output voltage and frequency, as well as ECO mode.

The maximum efficiency of the Victron Energy VE.Direct 12/375 inverter is 86% for the 12V models.

The inverter's standby power consumption is 6W. In ECO mode, this consumption is reduced to just 1W (default setting).

For optimal performance, the inverter must be installed on a flat surface. It is recommended to mount it at the base or vertically on a wall (fan at the bottom). Avoid ceiling mounting or vertical mounting with the fan at the top.

Ensure the installation location meets the following conditions:

Avoid any contact with water, rain, or moisture.Do not expose it to direct sunlight.The ambient temperature must be between -20°C and 40°C (humidity < 95% without condensation).Leave at least 10 cm of free space around the inverter for adequate ventilation.

The DC (direct current) connection for the battery is made via screw terminals. No special tools are required for installing these connections.

The inverter is a Class I safety product, meaning the chassis must be grounded. A grounding point is located outside the product. The ground conductor connecting the chassis ground terminal to ground must have at least half the cross-sectional area of the conductors used for the battery connection.

Yes, a remote on/off switch can be connected to a dedicated two-pole connector. Alternatively, the left contact of the connector can be linked to the battery positive, which is useful for automotive applications (for example, by connecting it to the ignition switch). It is important to note that the inverter's front switch must also be set to "On" or "ECO" for the device to start.

No, it is imperative to never connect the AC output of the inverter to another AC source, such as a domestic wall outlet or a generator. This could damage the inverter and pose a safety risk. To transfer the load to another AC source, Victron Energy recommends using an automatic transfer switch such as the Filax for low-power inverters.

The Victron Energy VE.Direct 12/375 inverter (reference PIN121371200) is designed to convert 12V DC to 230V AC, with a Schuko (CEE 7/4) output socket.

It delivers a continuous power output of 375W at 25°C and 300W at 40°C. It can also handle high startup loads, providing up to 600W for 2 seconds.

For configuration and monitoring, this inverter is equipped with a VE.Direct communication port. It can be connected to:

A computer (requires a VE.Direct to USB interface cable).Smartphones, tablets (Apple and Android) or other devices (requires a VE.Direct Smart Bluetooth dongle).With this connectivity, you can adjust several parameters, including:

Low battery voltage alarm and shutdown/restart thresholds.The output voltage (adjustable from 210 to 230V).The output frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz).The ECO mode, which reduces standby consumption to 1W. In ECO mode, the inverter enters sleep when the load drops below a preset value (minimum 15W) and checks the load at regular intervals (default 2.5 seconds).
