Victron Inverter 24/800 230V VE.Direct IEC

The Victron Inverter 24/800 is a pure sine wave DC to AC inverter designed for 24V battery systems, delivering 800VA of continuous 230V AC output. It is aimed at off-grid installations, marine and vehicle applications, and backup power setups where a compact, reliable inverter with monitoring capability is required.

Key Features

• 800VA continuous output at 230V AC from a 24V DC battery bank.
• Pure sine wave output suitable for sensitive electronics and motor loads.
• VE.Direct port for direct communication with compatible Victron monitoring devices and the VictronConnect app via a USB or Bluetooth dongle.
• IEC AC output connector for straightforward, standardised wiring.
• Compact and lightweight design at 5.8 kg, suited to space-constrained installations.
• Built-in protections including low battery voltage shutdown, overload protection and over-temperature shutdown.
• High efficiency operation to minimise battery drain during sustained use.

Product Overview

The 24/800 sits in Victron's VE.Direct inverter range, which uses a single-wire serial communication port to connect to the broader Victron ecosystem. This allows real-time monitoring of input voltage, output load, and device state through VictronConnect or a compatible GX device. For installers already working within a Victron system, this integration removes the need for separate metering or manual checks.

The 24V input voltage makes this inverter appropriate for larger off-grid battery banks where a 24V nominal system is preferred over 12V, reducing cable losses and allowing more efficient energy transfer at lower currents. The 800VA rating covers lighting circuits, small appliances, power tools, and similar loads. It is not intended for high-draw loads such as electric kettles or immersion heaters.

The IEC output socket provides a standardised AC connection point. The unit produces a pure sine wave output, which means it is compatible with inductive loads such as motors and fans, as well as sensitive electronics that may not tolerate the modified sine wave output found in lower-cost inverters.

Technical Specifications

Applications

• Off-grid cabins and remote buildings with 24V battery systems.
• Marine vessels requiring 230V AC output from a 24V DC bank.
• Campervans and motorhomes with 24V electrical systems.
• Backup power for small office or domestic loads during grid outages.
• Telecoms and industrial enclosures needing a compact 230V AC supply.

What Is Included

• Victron Inverter 24/800 230V VE.Direct IEC unit

Installation Notes

This inverter should be installed by a qualified electrician or experienced system integrator. DC connections must be correctly fused and sized for 24V battery systems. The unit is not grid-tied and does not require G98 or G99 notification. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent thermal shutdown under sustained load. VE.Direct accessories such as a USB interface cable or Bluetooth Smart dongle are sold separately and are required to access monitoring functionality via VictronConnect.
