Victron Energy MultiPlus-II 48V/5000VA/70A-50A inverter/charger

Product detailed description

MultiPlus-II is a powerful DC-AC hybrid inverter/charger with pure sine wave output, integrated adaptive battery charger and ultra-fast power source transfer switch (battery/external AC power supply) MultiPlus-II combines MultiPlus and MultiGrid functions It has all the features of the MultiPlus unit plus the option to connect an external current sensor for PowerControl and PowerAssist functions with self-consumption optimization (max. 50A). It also has all the features of the MultiGrid unit with built-in anti-islanding protection on its AC input - enhanced protection to prevent unwanted supply to the distribution network in the event of a grid failure. ESS: Energy Storage Systems The MultiPlus-II is a key element in the Victron ESS system, providing the flexibility to combine with solar MPPT controllers or grid-tied PV inverters. The MultiPlus-II, as the name suggests, is a combination of inverter and charger in one elegant design. Its range of features includes a pure sine wave inverter, adaptive charging, hybrid PowerAssist technology and other features for integration into various types of systems. One AC input The MultiPlus-II is equipped with one AC input for connection to the distribution network or a generator, for example. If two AC inputs are needed, then choose the Quattro unit. Two AC outputs The MultiPlus-II is equipped with two AC outputs. The main AC1 output ensures power supply without power interruption. For example, in UPS mode, the MultiPlus-II will take over power to connected appliances (in less than 20 milliseconds) in the event of a mains or generator failure. The second AC output is only functional when the AC input (distribution network/generator) is available. Therefore, a load that would quickly drain the batteries, such as a water heater, can be connected to this output and it will only be powered from the AC source. Four phase charging by an adaptive charger with two outputs for battery charging. The main DC output provides powerful full battery charging through an "adaptive charging" system. The software controls the three-stage automatic charging process to suit the condition of the battery and adds a fourth charging stage - maintenance charging. MultiPlus-II is designed to charge all types of lead acid, alkaline and lithium batteries. Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel operation Up to 6 MultiPlus-II units can operate in parallel to achieve higher performance. For example, six 48/5000/70 units provide 25kW/30kVA output power and 420A charging power. Three-phase operation Three units of the same type can be configured for three-phase operation with phase shifting. But that's not all, up to 6 units in parallel can form a single phase. Thus, a three-phase system can consist of up to 18 units with a total continuous output power of 75kW/90kVA and a charging power of 1200A. Unique features of PowerControl and PowerAssist MultiPlus-II prevents overloading of a power-limited AC source, e.g. a current-limited power connection or generator. Should a large draw overload the AC input source, the charging current to the battery will be automatically reduced in the first step (PowerControl). The energy for charging is shifted to power the AC appliances. In the second step, the input AC source is boosted by the current drawn from the battery (PowerAssist). The AC output receives energy from the AC source and the battery (inverter) together. Solar energy AC power can be available even in the event of a grid failure. MuliPlus-II can be used in off-grid (islanded) systems as well as in PV systems permanently connected to the distribution grid. The MultiPlus-II is not equipped with a PV array input, but is designed to work with MPPT controllers (DC coupling systems) or grid-tied inverters (AC coupling systems) located at the AC input and/or AC output. For more information see ESS description. System configuration - In the case of a simple e.g. UPS installation, setup can be easily done in a few minutes using the DIP switches on the MultiPlus-II or the VE.Configure 3 software and a PC. - Parallel and three-phase applications can be configured using VE.Bus Quick Configure software (up to three units) or more complex systems using VE.Bus System Configurator software (above three units) and a PC. - Off-grid and hybrid PV installations to support self-consumption and greater energy independence, which include grid-tied inverters and/or solar MPPT chargers, can be configured using VE.Configure 3 software with the appropriate assistants (dedicated functions for specific applications). - MultiPlus-II has several programmable relays and auxiliary contacts for a variety of additional functions - You can download the basic VE.Configure 3 software as well as other software for configuration options free of charge at the following link: https://www.victronenergy.com/support-and-downloads/software For the above mentioned software you will need a PC communication interface MK3-USB. Remote monitoring and system configuration Monitor and control your system locally or remotely over the internet from anywhere in the world using the free VRM app and the free VRM portal: https://vrm.victronenergy.com/landingpage Access can be from a phone, tablet, laptop or PC for different operating systems. For remote access, you need one of the following control panels and then you have the option of monitoring and configuring the system from anywhere in the world: Color Control GX Venus GX In combination with ColorControl GX or VEnus GX, it provides a battery state of charge (SOC) percentage count MultiPlus-II offers many variants of operation and is able to offer solutions to a range of user requirements. Here we list the most common operating modes to give an idea: 1. Basic installation of the MultiPlus-II with an external digital multifunction panel (optional). Designed for systems where the mains is not always available (typically caravans, boats), UPS mode. Appliances on AC out-1 are powered by both mains (preferred) and battery. Appliances on AC out2 are mains powered only, they are not powered in case of mains failure.
