It is suited to off-grid installations, backup power systems and mobile applications where a compact, capable inverter charger is required. The VE.Bus interface allows integration into larger Victron systems and enables advanced monitoring and configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1600VA continuous inverter output at 230V AC from a 48V DC battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20A battery charger built in, with adaptive charge algorithm to extend battery life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16A AC transfer switch for seamless changeover between shore\/generator power and inverter output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVE.Bus communication port for system integration, remote monitoring and configuration via Victron GX devices or MK3-USB interface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowerAssist function supplements shore or generator power to prevent overload on limited AC sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports parallel and three-phase operation when multiple units are used together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfigurable charge voltages and thresholds to suit different battery chemistries including lead-acid and lithium.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MultiPlus 48\/1600\/20-16 combines a pure sine wave inverter with a multi-stage battery charger. When AC input is available from a generator or shore supply, the unit charges the battery bank and passes power through to connected loads. When AC input is lost or disconnected, the transfer switch activates and the inverter takes over, with a transfer time fast enough to keep most equipment running without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20A charger uses Victron's adaptive charging algorithm, which adjusts the charge profile based on battery behaviour over time. This is particularly useful in systems where charge cycles vary, such as those relying on a generator for periodic charging. The PowerAssist feature is valuable where the AC source is current-limited: the inverter draws from the battery to supplement the incoming supply, allowing loads to exceed what the source alone could support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVE.Bus connectivity is a key practical advantage. It allows the unit to be monitored and configured remotely using a GX device (such as a Cerbo GX) or a laptop with the MK3-USB interface and VEConfigure software. Multiple MultiPlus units can be connected in parallel for increased capacity, or configured for split-phase or three-phase output, making this unit scalable for larger installations.\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;\"\u003ePMP482160000\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eInverter Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1600VA\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eBattery Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e48V DC\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 AC\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCharger Output Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e20A\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eAC Transfer Switch Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e16A\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eAC Output Frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCommunication Interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eVE.Bus\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;\"\u003e10 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;\"\u003e8719076046813\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, lodges and rural properties running on a 48V battery and generator system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine and narrowboat installations requiring 230V AC from a 48V DC battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power systems for critical loads in commercial or residential premises.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMobile and vehicle-based power systems where 230V AC output is needed from a 48V bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScalable off-grid systems where multiple units are paralleled for higher output capacity.\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 MultiPlus 48\/1600\/20-16 230V VE.Bus inverter charger unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or accredited installer familiar with DC battery systems and 230V AC wiring.
