Victron Inverter 12/375 230V VE.Direct SCHUKO | PIN121371210

The Victron Inverter 12/375 is a 12V DC to 230V AC pure sine wave inverter with a SCHUKO output socket and VE.Direct connectivity. Built for small off-grid, mobile and backup power setups, it delivers 375VA continuous output for low-power loads from a 12V battery bank.

Key features

• Output, 375VA continuous power, 12V DC input to 230V AC output.
• Waveform, pure sine wave, suitable for sensitive electronics and motor-driven loads.
• Monitoring, VE.Direct port for use with Victron GX devices, MPPT Solar Chargers and the VictronConnect app.
• Socket, SCHUKO (Type F) output, compatible with standard European and UK (via adaptor) plugs.
• Protection, low battery voltage shutdown, high battery voltage shutdown, overload protection and over-temperature shutdown.
• Weight, 3.2 kg, compact enough for vans, boats and cabinets.

Product overview

Sitting at the entry level of Victron's VE.Direct inverter range, the 12/375 converts 12V DC battery power into a stable 230V AC pure sine wave supply. The SCHUKO socket accepts European-standard plugs directly, which simplifies wiring in mobile or temporary installations.

The VE.Direct port is what separates this from a basic inverter. It allows connection to GX monitoring devices or the VictronConnect app via a VE.Direct to USB or Bluetooth dongle, giving installers visibility and control without needing a full CCGX or Cerbo GX system.

At 375VA this inverter suits small power tools, laptop chargers, LED lighting circuits and small refrigeration units. It is not intended for high-draw appliances such as kettles or heaters. Correct load sizing avoids nuisance tripping of the overload protection.

Applications

• Campervans and motorhomes needing 230V AC from a 12V leisure battery.
• Marine installations powering navigation electronics or cabin equipment.
• Off-grid cabins and garden buildings with small 12V systems.
• Backup power for low-draw AC loads such as routers, lighting and communications gear.
• Portable power stations and custom 12V battery builds requiring a SCHUKO output.

Installation notes

Connect to the 12V DC battery with correctly rated cabling and a fuse or circuit breaker fitted close to the battery. DC wiring should be carried out by a competent installer familiar with 12V systems. The SCHUKO output is not for direct connection to a UK ring main or consumer unit; any integration with a fixed AC installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with BS 7671. VE.Direct accessories such as a USB interface or Bluetooth dongle are sold separately and required for app monitoring.
