Onduleur Phoenix 12/3000

This Victron Energy Phoenix 12/3000 inverter produces a pure sine wave. This feature is essential to ensure that all your electronic devices, including the most sensitive ones, operate stably without interference or risk of damage.

Yes, the Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 is equipped with an ECO mode. This smart mode reduces energy consumption by putting the inverter in standby when the connected load drops below a predefined threshold. It automatically reactivates as soon as a higher load is detected, optimizing energy efficiency.

The Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 inverter integrates several robust protections to ensure the safety and durability of your installation. These include:

Output short-circuit protectionOverload protectionProtection against excessively high battery voltagesProtection against excessively low battery voltagesProtection against excessive temperatures

The Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 requires a 12 V DC input voltage. It is specifically designed to be connected to a 12 V battery bank.

The Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 inverter provides an alternating current (AC) output voltage of 230 V. The output frequency is 50 Hz, but it can be configurable according to the user's specific requirements.

Yes, the Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 inverter is equipped with overheat protection. In case of excessive ambient temperature or prolonged overload, the device will automatically reduce its output power or shut down completely to prevent any damage. It will restart automatically once the temperature has returned to a safe operating level.

Yes, the Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 inverter is designed to provide high starting power, with a peak power of up to 6000 W. This capacity is essential for starting inductive or capacitive loads, such as electric motors, pumps, refrigerators, or certain power tools, which require a significant power surge at startup.

The Victron Phoenix 12/3000 inverter offers several mounting options. It can be installed on a flat surface (base mounting), vertically on a wall (it is recommended to position the fan at the bottom for better heat dissipation), or horizontally on a wall. It is crucial to leave at least 10 centimeters of space around the device to ensure adequate ventilation and prevent overheating.

To ensure optimal performance and minimize energy losses, it is crucial to use DC cables with a sufficient cross-section to connect the inverter to your battery bank. The exact cross-section depends on cable length and inverter power. For a 3000 VA inverter, large cross-sections are required. It is imperative to consult the specific Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 installation manual for precise cable and recommended fuse specifications.

Yes, it is mandatory to ground the chassis of the Victron Phoenix 12/3000 inverter. This is a Class I Safety product, and a grounding point is clearly marked on the outside of the unit. The grounding conductor must have at least half the cross-section of the conductors used for the battery connection, in accordance with safety standards.

Yes, a remote on/off switch can be connected to the Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 via a dedicated two-pole connector. This feature allows remote control of the device without needing to access its physical switch on the front panel. It can also be wired to a positive battery source, useful for automotive applications.

No, the Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 does not have an AC output fuse. The AC wiring is protected by a fast-acting current limiter in case of short circuit and by an overload detection mechanism that mimics fuse characteristics (faster shutdown in case of significant overload). It is therefore critical to size your AC wiring correctly based on the inverter's nominal power.

Yes, the Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 is designed for maximum flexibility. It can be configured to operate in parallel to increase the total output power of your system. It is also possible to configure it for a three-phase installation using multiple units, which is managed via the VE.Bus communication port.

Yes, remote monitoring and control of the Phoenix 12/3000 inverter is possible. It can be connected to a GX device (such as the Cerbo GX) via the VE.Bus port and to Victron Energy's VRM portal. This provides complete system management from anywhere via the internet, allowing you to view data and adjust settings.

The Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 does not have a built-in automatic transfer switch to switch between different AC sources. For applications requiring this function, it is recommended to use an external Victron Energy device, such as a MultiPlus, which includes this feature, or a separate automatic transfer switch like the Filax for low-power inverters.

The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 uses the VE.Bus communication port. This port enables advanced communication with other Victron Energy devices, such as GX devices, for detailed configuration, real-time monitoring, and system control.

Yes, the inverter is fully configurable. You can adjust important parameters such as battery low-voltage alarm trigger and reset levels, low-voltage cut-off and restart levels, AC output voltage, frequency, and ECO mode settings. Configuration is done via the VE.Bus port using the appropriate software tools or a GX device.

Yes, the Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 12/3000 is specifically designed for demanding marine and off-grid systems. Its robustness, ability to provide a pure sine wave output, and advanced features make it a reliable and high-performance solution for powering a wide range of onboard equipment on sailboats or in off-grid installations.
