Victron Energy MultiPlus 12/800/35-16 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger – PMP121800000

Product Description

The Victron Energy MultiPlus 12/800/35-16 230V VE.Bus Inverter Charger (PMP121800000) is a versatile all-in-one power solution that combines a pure sine wave inverter, an adaptive battery charger and an automatic AC transfer switch in one compact unit. Designed for 12V battery systems, it converts battery power into 230V AC electricity and charges the battery when a compatible mains or generator supply is available.

With an 800VA inverter rating, a maximum battery charging current of 35A and a 16A AC transfer switch, the Victron MultiPlus is ideal for suitably sized off-grid, marine, campervan, motorhome and backup power installations.

The pure sine wave inverter provides a clean AC output for compatible electrical equipment. When an external AC supply is available, the integrated charger manages battery charging, while the transfer switch automatically changes between external AC power and inverter power as required.

The built-in UPS function switches to inverter operation when the incoming AC supply is interrupted. Victron specifies a transfer time of less than 20 milliseconds, helping connected computers and other suitable electronic equipment continue operating with minimal disruption.

The MultiPlus also features VE.Bus communication for integration with compatible Victron monitoring and control equipment. Its combined design reduces the need for separate inverter, charger and transfer-switch components, helping simplify power-system installation.
