Victron Phoenix Inverter VE.Direct - 12/250 VE.Direct communication port
The VE.Direct port can be connected to:
• A computer (VE.Direct to USB interface cable needed)
• Apple and Android smartphones, tablets , MacBook’s and other devices
(VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle needed)
Fully configurable :
• Low battery voltage alarm trip and reset levels
• Low battery voltage cut -off and restart levels
• Dynamic cut -off: load dependent cut -off level
• Output voltage 2 10 - 245V
• Frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz
• ECO mode on/off and ECO mode sense level
Monitoring :
• In- and output voltage , % load and alarms
Proven reliability
The full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology has proven its reliability over many years.
The inverters are short circuit proof and protected against o verheating, whether due to over load or high ambient temperature.
High start-up power
Needed to start loads such as power co nverters for LED lamps, halogen lamps or electric tools.
ECO mode
When in ECO mode , the inverter will switch to stan dby when the load decreases below a preset value (min load: 15W). Once in standby the inverter will switch on for a short period (adjustable, default: every 2,5 seconds) . If the load exceeds a preset level, the inverter will remain on.
Remote on/off
A remote on/off switch can be connected to a two-pole connecto r, or between battery plus and the left-hand contact of the two-pole connector.
To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch
For our low power inverters , we recommend our Filax Automatic Transfer Switch. The Filax features a very short switchover time (less than 20 mi lliseconds) so that computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption.
