Description
xPhoenix Inverter 24/1200 230V VE.Direct IEC
The Victron Phoenix Inverter 24/1200 is a pure sine wave inverter designed for off-grid and mobile power applications. It converts 24V DC battery power to 230V AC at 1200VA continuous output, making it suitable for professional installations in vehicles, boats, cabins and backup power systems. The VE.Direct interface allows direct communication with compatible Victron monitoring devices and controllers.
Key Features
- 1200VA continuous output with pure sine wave AC, suitable for sensitive electronics and motor loads.
- 24V DC input with a 230V AC IEC output connection for straightforward integration into standard wiring.
- VE.Direct port enables communication with Victron monitoring equipment including the Color Control GX and BMV battery monitors.
- Built-in protections cover low battery shutdown, overload, over-temperature and short circuit conditions.
- Compact and relatively lightweight at 6.9 kg, suited to installations where space and weight are considerations.
- High surge power capability handles the startup current demands of motors and compressors.
- Compatible with Victron VictronConnect app via VE.Direct to USB interface for configuration and monitoring from a mobile device.
Product Overview
The Phoenix 24/1200 uses a pure sine wave output, which means it is safe to run equipment that would otherwise be damaged or operate poorly on modified sine wave inverters. This includes variable speed tools, medical equipment, audio systems and any device with a switch-mode power supply. The IEC output socket format is standard for European and UK equipment, simplifying the AC side of the installation.
The VE.Direct interface is a key practical feature for professional installations. It allows the inverter to be integrated into a wider Victron system, enabling remote monitoring, on/off control and data logging through a GX device or directly via a laptop or phone using the VictronConnect app. This is particularly useful in off-grid cabins, marine installations and vehicle conversions where system oversight matters.
Victron's Phoenix range is well established in the off-grid and marine sectors. The 24V input voltage is a common choice for larger off-grid systems and commercial vehicles where higher battery voltages reduce cable losses and allow more practical battery bank configurations.

Installation Notes
This inverter should be installed by a qualified electrician or experienced system integrator. DC connections must be correctly fused and sized for the current draw at 24V. The IEC AC output is not intended for direct connection to a fixed building wiring circuit without appropriate isolation and protection. For any grid-tied or grid-backup application, ensure compliance with G98 or G99 requirements as applicable. Adequate ventilation must be provided around the unit to prevent thermal shutdown under sustained load.
