Victron Inverter Compact 12/2000 230V VE.Bus | CIN122200000

The Victron Inverter Compact 12/2000 is a 2000VA pure sine wave inverter built for 12V DC systems, producing 230V AC output through a VE.Bus interface. It's designed for off-grid, marine and vehicle installations where panel space is tight but reliable AC power still matters.

Victron inverter features

• Output, 2000VA continuous, pure sine wave, from a 12V DC battery bank.
• VE.Bus port, connects to Victron Multi-unit systems, GX devices and remote panels.
• Compact chassis, a smaller footprint than Victron's standard inverter models.
• Configurable via VEConfigure, set load-dependent shutdown, battery protection thresholds and other parameters.
• Built-in protection, overload, over-temperature, short circuit and low battery voltage.

Product overview

The Compact 12/2000 shares the VE.Bus interface used on the MultiPlus and Quattro ranges, so it can be monitored through a Cerbo GX, Color Control or Digital Multi Control panel without needing a full Multi unit.

Running from a 12V lithium or AGM bank suits narrowboats, motorhomes, off-grid cabins and vehicle conversions. At 2000VA it will carry lighting circuits, small power tools, laptops, televisions and kitchen appliances, provided the battery bank can sustain the discharge. Cabling and battery sizing need to account for the current draw at 12V, which climbs quickly under load.

VEConfigure lets you set low battery shutdown and restart voltages, useful for lithium systems needing exact cut-off points. This unit has no built-in charger, so it works purely as an inverter. Anyone needing charging as well should look at the MultiPlus range instead.

Applications

• Narrowboat and canal boat AC systems running from 12V batteries.
• Motorhome and campervan conversions needing 230V AC from a 12V supply.
• Off-grid cabins and remote sites with 12V storage.
• Commercial vehicle conversions powering tools or equipment.
• Standalone backup power where a separate charger isn't wanted.
