It connects via VE.Bus, so it can be linked into Victron's wider network of monitoring and control devices. Suited to installers fitting a compact, bus-connected inverter into mobile or fixed off-grid systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput\u003c\/strong\u003e, 1600VA continuous at 230V AC from a 12V DC input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaveform\u003c\/strong\u003e, pure sine wave, suitable for sensitive electronics and motor loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommunication\u003c\/strong\u003e, VE.Bus port for integration with Victron MultiPlus, Quattro, Color Control GX and other compatible devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 10 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection\u003c\/strong\u003e, over-temperature, overload, low battery voltage shutdown and short-circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Compact 12\/1600 is an inverter-only unit within Victron's range: it converts DC battery power to AC mains voltage without a built-in charger. That suits systems where charging is already handled separately, such as by an MPPT solar controller. The 12V input matches single-battery-bank setups typical of boats, campervans, vehicles and small off-grid cabins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVE.Bus connectivity allows the unit to be monitored and configured remotely through a GX device or the VictronConnect app via a suitable interface, useful where system visibility and fault diagnostics matter without direct access to the unit. The pure sine wave output means it works with the full range of AC loads, including inductive loads like motors and compressors as well as electronics that would be disrupted by a modified sine wave supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eParameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCIN122160000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDC Input Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAC Output Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V AC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContinuous Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1600VA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Waveform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePure sine wave\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVE.Bus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGTIN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8719076065043\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and remote buildings powered by a 12V battery bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine installations requiring a bus-connected inverter for system monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCampervan and motorhome conversions where pure sine wave output is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle-based power systems for service vehicles, mobile workshops or broadcast units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackup power systems where a separate charger is already installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVictron system expansions requiring a VE.Bus-compatible inverter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVictron Inverter Compact 12\/1600 230V VE.Bus unit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis inverter runs at 12V DC and needs an appropriately rated battery bank with correctly sized DC cabling and fusing. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced Victron installer. The AC output must not be connected to the grid. VE.Bus configuration requires a compatible Victron GX device or MK3-USB interface, and the unit needs adequate ventilation to avoid thermal shutdown under sustained load.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52061014688032,"sku":"CIN122160000","price":434.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-cin122160000-1.webp?v=1785509207","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-compact-inverter-12-1600-vebus","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
