It delivers 1,450 W continuous at 25°C and supplies loads through an IEC-320 outlet. It suits installers fitting out vans, boats, cabins and backup systems that run on a 24 V battery bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous output of 1,450 W at 25°C and 1,300 W at 40°C, with a peak rating of 2,100 W for motor and inrush loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eECO mode cuts zero load consumption from 14 W to 2 W, with an adjustable stop\/start power setting and a 2.5 s retry interval.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic low DC shutdown, with a fixed low shutdown level of 18.6 V and low restart\/alarm at 21.8 V.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVE.Direct communication port for configuration and monitoring.

Maximum efficiency is 91%. Output is rated at 230 V 50 Hz, matching standard UK and EU appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZero load draw matters in off-grid systems where the inverter stays on around the clock. At 14 W, an idle inverter uses over 330 Wh per day. In ECO mode this drops to 2 W: the inverter switches off its output and checks for a load every 2.5 seconds, restarting when demand exceeds the adjustable threshold. Dynamic low DC shutdown takes account of load, so a heavy draw that briefly pulls battery voltage down is less likely to cause a nuisance trip, while light loads are cut before the battery is over-discharged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VE.Direct port lets installers set shutdown voltages, ECO mode thresholds and other parameters, and connect the inverter to Victron monitoring equipment. Continuous output derates as ambient temperature rises, so allow for the 40°C rating in engine bays, lockers and other warm enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:

Connect the battery with cable sized for the 25 mm² screw terminals, and fit suitable DC fusing and isolation between the battery and inverter. The enclosure is rated IP21, so mount it in a dry, ventilated space away from water spray. The output is a standalone 230 V supply and must not be connected to the grid. A qualified electrician should carry out the installation, particularly where it connects to fixed AC wiring in a vehicle, vessel or building. Use an MCS-accredited installer where the system includes solar PV.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61540619518286,"sku":"PIN242161100","price":277.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_PIN242161100_-_Inverter_24-1600_230V_VE.Direct_IEC.webp?v=1793798636","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/off-grid-inverter-24v-1600va-victron-ve-direct","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
