Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/250 - 120V - VE.Direct GFCI Duplex Outlet - 200W

Power your essential devices with the Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/250 - 120V - VE.Direct GFCI Duplex Outlet - 200W. This compact inverter turns 12V DC from leisure or automotive batteries into reliable 120V AC (with selectable 230V/120V output) for everyday electronics, tools, and lighting, delivering clean, dependable power wherever you go.

Built for reliability, the inverter uses a full-bridge plus toroidal transformer topology that’s proven over many years. It is short-circuit proof and protected against overheating, giving you confidence in demanding environments—from caravans and boats to off-grid cabins.

Key features

• Continuous power: 200W (250 VA) with up to 400W peak for short surges to start loads like LED drivers and small tools.
• Output options: selectable 120V AC or 230V AC, 50/60 Hz, with +/-3% voltage accuracy to fit a wide range of devices.
• GFCI Duplex Outlet: Built-in safety outlet for standard 120V equipment.
• VE.Direct connectivity: Monitor input/output voltage, % load, and alarms; configure settings via PC, smartphones, or tablets using VE.Direct (USB or Bluetooth dongle as needed).
• Fully configurable: Adjustable low battery alarm and cut-off, restart levels, and dynamic cut-off that adapts to load, protecting your battery bank.
• ECO mode: Switches to standby at low loads (min load ~15W); automatic re-activation keeps the inverter ready as soon as demand returns (default sense every 2.5 seconds).
• High start-up power: Designed to handle inrush when starting loads such as LED drivers, halogen lamps, or small power tools.
• Remote on/off: Optional remote switch can be connected to a two-pole connector for convenient control.
• Automatic transfer readiness: Compatible with Victron’s Filax Automatic Transfer Switch for seamless handover (<20 ms) to a secondary AC source to keep computers and electronics running.
• Efficiency and standby: Up to 88% efficiency; low idle power with ECO-mode options and configurable stop/start power to minimize battery drain.

Technical highlights

• Input voltage range: 9.2–17V / 18.4–34V / 36.8–62.0V DC, making it suitable for 12V, 24V, or 48V battery systems.
• Output: 230VAC or 120VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz, with precise regulation.
• Max efficiency: Up to ~88% depending on voltage and temperature conditions.
• Zero-load power: 4.2–7.9W depending on model; ECO mode can reduce standby draw to as low as 0.8–2.5W with configurable intervals.
• Operating temperature: -40°C to +65°C with fan-assisted cooling for reliable operation in challenging environments.
• Enclosure: Steel chassis with a blue RAL 5012 plastic cover for durability and a professional finish.
• Safety: Short-circuit protection and overheating protection to safeguard both inverter and connected gear.
