Victron Energy MultiPlus 12/2000/80-32 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger – PMP122200000

Product Description

The Victron Energy MultiPlus 12/2000/80-32 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger (PMP122200000) is an integrated power management solution combining a pure sine wave inverter, adaptive battery charger and automatic AC transfer switch in one unit. Designed for compatible 12V battery systems, it converts DC battery power into 230V AC electricity and charges the battery when a suitable mains or generator supply is available.

With a 2,000VA inverter capacity, up to 1,600W of continuous output power at 25°C and a maximum battery charging current of 80A, the MultiPlus is suitable for a wide range of marine, motorhome, mobile and off-grid power applications.

The integrated 32A transfer switch automatically transfers between incoming AC power and inverter power. If the external supply fails, the inverter takes over automatically. Victron specifies a transfer time of less than 20 milliseconds, helping compatible computers and electronic equipment continue operating with minimal disruption.

The MultiPlus includes PowerControl and PowerAssist technology. PowerControl helps manage battery-charging demand to avoid overloading a limited AC input supply. PowerAssist can supplement a limited shore-power or generator supply with energy from the battery when the system is configured appropriately.

The VE.Bus communication interface allows integration with compatible Victron monitoring, configuration and control equipment. By combining inverter, charger and transfer-switch functions in one enclosure, the MultiPlus helps simplify system design and installation.

Installation and Compatibility

The PMP122200000 is designed for compatible 12V DC battery systems and 230V AC installations. Before purchasing, confirm that the inverter's continuous output and peak power ratings meet the requirements of your intended appliances, including the start-up demands of motors, pumps, compressors and other inductive loads.

The 80A charging capacity must be compatible with the battery manufacturer's recommended charging current and the capacity of the battery bank. Correct battery cable sizing, DC protection, ventilation, earthing and AC circuit protection are essential for safe operation.

The 32A transfer-switch rating should be considered when designing the incoming AC supply and connected circuits. The transfer-switch rating does not mean the inverter itself can continuously supply 32A from battery power.

The VE.Bus communication interface supports integration with compatible Victron configuration, monitoring and control accessories. Confirm accessory compatibility and the manufacturer's installation requirements before ordering.

Installation and commissioning should be carried out by a suitably qualified person in accordance with Victron Energy's instructions and applicable electrical regulations.
