| SinusMax - Superior engineering Developed for professional duty, the Phoenix range of inverters is suitable for the widest range of applications. The design criteria have been to produce a true sine wave inverter with optimised efficiency but without compromise in performance. Employing hybrid HF technology, the result is a top quality product with compact dimensions, light in weight and capable of supplying power, problem-free, to any load. Extra start-up power A unique feature of the SinusMax technology is very high start-up power. Conventional high frequency technology does not offer such extreme performance. Phoenix inverters, however, are well suited to power up difficult loads such as refrigeration compressors, electric motors and similar appliances. Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel and 3-phase operation capability Up to 6 units Phoenix 24/3000 can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 24/3000 units, for example, will provide 15 kW / 18 kVA output power. Operation in 3-phase configuration is also possible. (Please request VE.Bus enabled units for best 3 phase performance) To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch If an automatic transfer switch is required on models rated at 1200 VA or more, we recommend to use the Phoenix Multi instead. The switch is included in these products and the charger function of the Multi can be disabled. For our lower power models we recommend the use of our Filax Automatic Transfer Switch. Computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption because both the Filax and the Phoenix Multi feature a very short switchover time (less than 20 milliseconds). Computer interface All models rated at 1200 VA or more have a RS-485 computer interface. All you need to connect to your PC is our data link MK2 (see under accessories). This data link takes care of galvanic isolation between the inverter and the computer, and converts from RS-485 to RS-232. Together with the VEConfigure software, which can be downloaded free of charge from our website www.victronenergy.com, all parameters of the inverters can be customised. This includes output voltage and frequency, over and under voltage settings and programming the relay. This relay can for example be used to signal several alarm conditions, or to start a generator. The inverters can also be connected to VENet, the new power control network of Victron Energy, or to other computerised monitoring and control systems. |
