Victron Energy Sun Inverter 24V/250VA-10A IEC
The Sun Inverter integrates a sinewave inverter with a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) solar charger into a single unit, offering a streamlined installation process with minimal wiring requirements. This innovative device enables the conversion of 12V or 24V from leisure or automotive batteries into 230V AC, suitable for powering household appliances.
Its built-in solar charger capitalizes on solar energy to replenish the batteries, featuring a customizable charge algorithm to optimize energy capture based on specific needs or conditions.
For enhanced convenience and monitoring, the inverter’s parameters, along with those of the solar charger, can be accessed and adjusted remotely via Bluetooth through the VictronConnect app. This allows for effortless management and real-time data tracking from a smartphone or tablet.
Moreover, the inverter is equipped with a VE.Direct Port, facilitating direct connectivity to a GX device or GlobalLink 520. This feature enables comprehensive system monitoring, allowing users to oversee and manage their energy system's performance seamlessly within an integrated network. This combination of ease of use, efficiency, and advanced connectivity makes the Sun Inverter an ideal solution for a wide range of applications, from residential to mobile and off-grid installations.
