It is aimed at off-grid installations, vehicles, boats and backup power applications where a reliable AC supply is needed from a 12V battery bank. The SCHUKO output socket makes it straightforward to connect standard European appliances directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1200VA continuous output power from a 12V DC input, suitable for a wide range of AC loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePure sine wave output at 230V, compatible with sensitive electronics and motor-driven equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVE.Direct communication port for monitoring and integration with Victron GX devices and the VictronConnect app.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSCHUKO output socket for direct connection of standard European plugs without an adaptor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in protections covering low battery shutdown, overload, over-temperature and short circuit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and relatively lightweight design at 7.7 kg, suited to installations with limited space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 12\/1200 sits in Victron's VE.Direct inverter range, which is designed for straightforward off-grid and mobile applications. The VE.Direct port allows the inverter to communicate with Victron's monitoring ecosystem, including the Cerbo GX and the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth or USB. This means installers can monitor real-time output, configure settings and view historical data without additional hardware beyond a VE.Direct cable or Bluetooth dongle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pure sine wave output is important for loads that are sensitive to waveform quality. Modified sine wave inverters can cause problems with variable-speed motors, some battery chargers, audio equipment and medical devices. A pure sine wave output avoids these compatibility issues and is generally the correct choice for professional installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe SCHUKO socket format is standard across much of Europe and is commonly found on tools, appliances and consumer electronics. Having a built-in socket rather than bare terminals simplifies installation in mobile and temporary setups, though fixed installations will typically be wired directly into a distribution board by a qualified electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border: 2px solid #f87c24; border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f87c24; color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003ePIN122121210\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eDC Input Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12V\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eAC Output Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e230V\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eContinuous Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1200VA\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutput Waveform\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003ePure sine wave\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutput Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSCHUKO\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCommunication\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eVE.Direct\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e7.7 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGTIN\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e8719076066309\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and remote buildings powered by a 12V battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCampervans, motorhomes and caravans requiring 230V AC from the vehicle battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine installations on smaller vessels with a 12V house battery system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power for essential loads during grid outages, connected to a 12V battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTemporary site power where a 230V supply is needed from a battery source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVictron Inverter 12\/1200 230V VE.Direct SCHUKO unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis inverter should be installed by a qualified electrician or competent person familiar with DC battery systems and 230V AC wiring. DC cable sizing and fusing between the battery and inverter are critical at 12V due to the high currents involved at this power level. The inverter is not grid-tied and does not require G98 or G99 notification. For integration with a Victron monitoring system, a VE.Direct cable or VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is required separately. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent thermal shutdown under sustained load.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59855248523598,"sku":"PIN122121210","price":196.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_PIN122121210_-_Inverter_12-1200_230V_VE.Direct_SCHUKO.webp?v=1781091861","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-inverter-12-1200-230v-ve-direct-schuko","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
