It is suited to marine, vehicle, off-grid and backup power installations where space is limited and reliable AC power is required from a battery bank.\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 12V DC battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e70A multi-stage battery charger with adaptive charge algorithm, adjusting to battery condition over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16A AC transfer switch for seamless changeover between shore\/generator power and inverter output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowerControl function limits AC input current draw, preventing overload of a shore power or generator supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowerAssist function supplements AC input with battery power during peak demand, allowing a smaller generator or shore connection to be used.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVE.Bus communication interface for system integration, remote monitoring and configuration via Victron GX devices or VEConfigure software.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor at 11.5 kg, suitable for installations with restricted mounting space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports parallel and three-phase operation when multiple units are used together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MultiPlus Compact combines a true sine wave inverter with a high-current battery charger and an AC transfer switch. When an AC source such as shore power or a generator is connected, the unit charges the battery bank and passes AC through to connected loads. If the AC source is lost or disconnected, the transfer switch activates within 20 milliseconds, maintaining power to critical loads without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 70A charger uses Victron's adaptive four-stage algorithm (bulk, absorption, float, storage), which adjusts absorption time based on the previous discharge. This reduces unnecessary charge time and extends battery life over repeated cycles. The charger is suitable for lead-acid battery types including flooded, AGM and gel, and can be configured for lithium batteries via VEConfigure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVE.Bus connectivity allows the MultiPlus Compact to be integrated into larger Victron systems. It can be monitored and controlled through a Victron GX device (such as the Cerbo GX), and configured remotely via VRM. Multiple units can be connected in parallel for increased capacity, or configured for split-phase or three-phase output where the installation requires it.\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;\"\u003eCMP122160000\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;\"\u003e12V DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eInverter Output\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1600VA \/ 230V AC\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCharger Output\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e70A\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eAC Transfer Switch\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 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;\"\u003eCommunication\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;\"\u003e11.5 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;\"\u003e8719076065081\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\u003eMarine vessels requiring reliable 230V AC power from a 12V battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorhomes and campervans with shore power connection and battery backup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and remote buildings with battery storage and generator input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUPS and backup power systems for critical equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMobile and vehicle-based installations where compact dimensions are a requirement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1x Victron MultiPlus Compact 12\/1600\/70-16 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 with experience in DC battery systems and 230V AC wiring.
