Inverter 24/500 VE.Direct Schuko
24/500 VE Converter.Direct Schuko Applications Enough power for a refrigerator plus some small items, and still compact. At 24 V, the DC current remains low, allowing for thinner cables and a smaller fuse. With ECO mode, the standby power consumption drops to around 1.5 watts. * 24 V commercial vehicles, trucks, and service vehicles * Sloops, motor yachts, and work vessels on 24 V * Garden sheds, chalets, and off-grid accommodations * Metering cabinets, telecom locations, and pump installations in rural areas * Backup for equipment that must continue operating during a power outage Power and starting behavior * 500 VA nominal; 400 W continuous at 25 °C, 350 W at 40 °C * 900 W peak power for starting currents of LED drivers, incandescent lamps, and power tools * Pure sine wave, suitable for sensitive electronics * Full bridge with toroidal transformer; Short-circuit proof and protected against overheating due to overload or high ambient temperature * Maximum efficiency 90% ECO mode If the load drops below the set threshold, the inverter switches to standby and scans every 2.5 seconds by default to see if there is demand again. The minimum generating power is 15 W by default; both values are adjustable. Consequently, the no-load power drops from 6.5 W to 1.5 W. The correct setting depends heavily on the type of load: inductive, capacitive, or non-linear. Expect a brief on-site adjustment. Battery monitoring and shutdown * Input voltage range 18.4 – 34.0 V * Low battery voltage shutdown default 18.6 V, adjustable * Restart and alarm at 21.8 V, battery charged detection at 28.0 V, both adjustable * Dynamic shutdown: the shutdown level follows the load, ensuring the battery bank continues to be utilized under light load * Protected against short circuit, overload, over- and under-battery voltage, over-temperature, and excessive DC ripple voltage, with automatic restart VE.Direct port * Read out and configure via VictronConnect on smartphone or tablet with a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle * Connection to a PC via a VE.Direct-to-USB interface cable * Adjustable: output voltage 210 – 245 V, frequency 50 or 60 Hz, ECO threshold and search interval, alarm and shutdown levels * Monitoring of battery voltage, AC output voltage, load indication, and alarms Connection and mounting * Schuko socket (CEE 7/4) on the device * DC side on screw terminals, maximum cable cross-section 10 mm²; battery cables are not included * Minimum battery capacity 40 Ah * Recommended DC cable: 6 mm² up to 1.5 m, 10 mm² for 1.5 to 3 m * Internal DC fuse 2 x 25 A (ATOF 32 V), non-replaceable; for a DC cable longer than 1.5 m, an additional fuse or DC circuit breaker close to the battery bank is mandatory * Connection for an external on/off switch on the two-pole plug, or between the battery positive terminal and its left contact * Can be mounted vertically or horizontally with four screws, minimum 10 cm clearance all around; IP21 applies only with flush mounting according to the manual; in other positions IP20 * Connecting the battery cables in reverse will cause the internal fuse to blow and may damage the device. Can be ordered directly with this * Victron VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle (https://shop.top.systems/monitoring-controle/draadloos/victron-ve-direct-bluetooth-smart-dongle.html) (ASS030536011) — read out and configure via VictronConnect.
