It suits off-grid installations, marine and vehicle setups, and backup power systems where a clean AC supply matters. A VE.Direct port lets it talk to compatible Victron monitoring devices and controllers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVictron phoenix inverter key features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput\u003c\/strong\u003e, 1200VA continuous, pure sine wave.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDC input\u003c\/strong\u003e, 48V, suited to lithium and lead-acid battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommunication\u003c\/strong\u003e, VE.Direct port for connection to Victron MPPT controllers, Color Control GX and other VE.Direct compatible devices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAC output socket\u003c\/strong\u003e, SCHUKO, for direct appliance connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection\u003c\/strong\u003e, low battery voltage, high battery voltage, overload, short circuit and over-temperature.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 6.9 kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePure sine wave output means the Phoenix 48\/1200 works with AC loads that struggle on modified sine wave inverters: variable speed drives, compressors, medical equipment, and audio-visual gear. Running at 48V DC is common on larger off-grid systems, since a higher battery voltage draws lower current for the same power, which cuts cable losses and heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVE.Direct is Victron's point-to-point serial protocol. Connected to a Victron GX device, a VE.Direct to USB interface, or a compatible MPPT charge controller, it gives real-time visibility of inverter status, load and battery data. The SCHUKO socket is standard across continental Europe and also common in the UK for portable or semi-permanent setups, letting appliances connect directly without a separate consumer unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and remote buildings run from a 48V battery and solar system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine vessels needing 230V AC from a 48V DC house bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorhomes, campervans and expedition vehicles with 48V electrical systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackup power for critical loads during grid outages, connected to a 48V battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelecoms and industrial enclosures needing a monitored, standalone AC supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVictron Phoenix Inverter 48\/1200 230V VE.Direct SCHUKO unit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a 48V DC product and should be installed by a qualified electrician familiar with DC battery systems. DC cable sizing must suit the maximum current draw at 48V. The VE.Direct port carries data only, not power. Where used as part of a grid-connected or grid-backup system in the UK, the installation should comply with G98 or G99 requirements as applicable, and battery connections should be fused as close to the terminals as possible per the manufacturer's guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095613272352,"sku":"PIN482121200","price":220.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-pin482121200-1.webp?v=1785756152","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-phoenix-48-1200-inverter","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
