Description
xPhoenix Inverter 24/250 230V VE.Direct IEC
The Victron Phoenix Inverter 24/250 is a compact 24V DC to 230V AC pure sine wave inverter designed for small off-grid and mobile power applications. It connects via VE.Direct for monitoring and configuration, and terminates with an IEC output socket. Suited to professional installers fitting lightweight, low-draw inverter solutions in vehicles, boats, cabins and small off-grid systems.
Key Features
- 250VA continuous output from a 24V DC battery bank, producing a clean 230V AC pure sine wave suitable for sensitive electronics.
- VE.Direct port enables direct communication with Victron monitoring devices, including the Color Control GX and Venus GX, without additional interfaces.
- IEC output connector provides a standardised AC output termination compatible with a wide range of IEC-rated equipment and leads.
- Compact and lightweight at 2.6 kg, making it practical for space-constrained installations in vehicles, marine craft and small enclosures.
- Built-in protections cover low battery voltage shutdown, over-temperature and overload, reducing the risk of damage to the inverter or connected loads.
- Victron's PowerControl and PowerAssist features are not present on this model, keeping the design straightforward for simple standalone inverter duties.
Product Overview
The Phoenix 24/250 sits at the entry level of Victron's Phoenix inverter range. It converts 24V DC from a battery into 230V AC pure sine wave output at up to 250VA continuous. Pure sine wave output matters where loads include motor-driven equipment, medical devices, audio equipment or any appliance that performs poorly or fails prematurely on modified sine wave power.
VE.Direct connectivity is a practical inclusion even at this power level. It allows the inverter to be monitored and controlled via Victron's GX device ecosystem or a laptop running VictronConnect, giving installers visibility of operating state, fault history and basic configuration without additional wiring complexity. This is particularly useful in remote or hard-to-access installations where remote monitoring adds real value.
At 250VA, this inverter is not intended for high-draw appliances. It is well matched to loads such as laptop chargers, LED lighting circuits, small fans, communication equipment and similar low-wattage AC devices. Sizing the load correctly against the 250VA rating is essential during system design.

Applications
- Off-grid cabins and small remote installations requiring a modest 230V AC supply from a 24V battery bank.
- Marine and narrowboat installations powering low-wattage AC equipment such as laptops, chargers and communication devices.
- Vehicle conversions (campervan, motorhome, van) where a compact 24V inverter is needed for occasional AC loads.
- Telecoms and remote monitoring enclosures requiring a clean sine wave supply for sensitive electronics.
- Backup power for small AC loads in systems already built around a 24V battery architecture.

Installation Notes
This inverter must be connected to a 24V DC battery bank. DC wiring, fusing and cable sizing must be appropriate for the inverter's input current at full load. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced system integrator. The IEC AC output is not intended for direct connection to a fixed building wiring circuit. This product is not grid-connected and does not require G98 or G99 notification. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent thermal shutdown under sustained load.
