Inverter Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 24/1600 Smart - 24/220V 1.6kVA/1.3kW - PIN242161000

The Phoenix Inverter 24/1600 Smart 24/220V 1600VA/1300W is a modern and reliable device for converting direct current (24V DC) to alternating current (220V AC). It is suitable for use in marine, automotive, off-grid, and industrial power systems. Thanks to built-in Bluetooth, you can monitor and configure the inverter via the VictronConnect mobile app.

Key Benefits of the Phoenix Inverter Smart

• Built-in Bluetooth – remote monitoring and configuration via smartphone or tablet.

• Reliable toroidal transformer topology – resistance to short circuits, overloads, and overheating

• Pure sine wave – output voltage waveform meets the highest standards.

• High starting power – capable of starting loads with high inrush current (power tools, compressors, pumps, LED drivers).

• Dynamic shutdown when the battery is low – adaptive battery protection algorithm.

• Efficient ECO mode – conserves battery power during low load.

• VE.Direct port – connection to a computer or Victron Energy monitoring system; using Cerbo GX and Ekrano GX controllers, the device can be fully controlled via the internet (software updates, changing settings, turning on and off).

• Wide input voltage range from 18.6 to 34 V – adapts to various types of batteries and DC generators. 

• Remote control – option to connect an external switch or relay.

• Automatic switching to another power source  – use of the Filax Automatic Transfer Switch is recommended.

Technical Features

• Protection against short circuits, overloads, and overheating – the device automatically reduces the load or shuts down to prevent damage.

• Automatic shutdown at low battery voltage – adaptive shutdown algorithm to preserve battery life. Battery protection against deep discharge.

• ECO Mode function – automatic switching to power-saving mode under low load.

• Intelligent cooling – the cooling fan operates only when there is a high load or high ambient temperature.

• Programmable relay – create the necessary automations using the programmable relay built into the inverter.

• Operates in a wide temperature range from –40 to +65°C – ideal for transportation applications where significant temperature fluctuations are expected in winter and summer.

• Efficiency (efficiency) = 94% – the best figure among competitors, which significantly reduces energy consumption during DC/AC conversion.

• No-load power in ECO mode = 1.3W – the best figure among competitors!

Complies with the ECE R10-5 electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standard

ECE R10-5 – is an electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standard applicable to electronic equipment used in vehicles. It regulates requirements for electromagnetic interference emissions and immunity to external electromagnetic influences.

What does ECE R10-5 certification mean for Victron Energy inverters?

Low level of electromagnetic emissions

– The inverters do not generate radio frequency interference that could affect radio communications, GPS, mobile networks, or other electronic systems in a car, yacht, or industrial equipment.

High resistance to electromagnetic interference

– Inverters operate reliably even in challenging conditions where sudden voltage fluctuations or strong electromagnetic fields may occur (e.g., in trucks, buses, and heavy equipment).

Safe integration into transportation systems

– Complies with the requirements of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (ECE), allowing the use of inverters in cars, campers, marine vessels, and other vehicles without the risk of negatively affecting the host device’s electronic systems or vehicle safety systems such as ABS.

Quality assurance and compliance with international standards

– ECE R10-5 compliance confirms that Victron Energy products have undergone rigorous testing and meet international safety requirements for use in transportation.

What does this mean for users of Inverter Smart inverters?

• Legal use in vehicles without the need for additional certification.

• Compatibility with other electronic systems – the inverter does not interfere with radio, navigation, autopilot, GPS, or other electrical devices.

• Stable operation in challenging conditions – marine vessels, RVs, commercial vehicles, and special-purpose equipment.

• Protection against electromagnetic interference – the inverter does not fail during sudden voltage fluctuations.

Application scenarios

• Off-grid power systems – efficient conversion of energy from solar panels or batteries in off-grid solar stations.

• Camping, caravanning – providing AC power for household appliances in motorhomes.

• Marine vessels and yachts – powering equipment without the use of generators.

• Industrial installations – backup power for sensitive electronic systems.

• Emergency power systems – a reliable source of alternating current in the event of a main power outage.

• Specialized equipment – mobile laboratories, service centers, control centers, and any other applications.
