Victron Inverter RS 48/6000 230V Smart Solar – inverter with solar MPPT charger

Victron Energy Inverter RS 48/6000 230V Smart Solar combines a 48 VDC inverter with a high-voltage solar MPPT charger in one compact enclosure. It converts energy from a 48 V battery system into pure sine wave 230 VAC power and accepts a photovoltaic array with an MPPT operating range of 65–450 VDC.

With a 6 kVA rating, up to 4000 W of solar charging power, an integrated display and Bluetooth connectivity for VictronConnect, this model is designed for off-grid and hybrid solar systems where high efficiency, low no-load consumption and advanced system control are important. Up to 12 units can be configured in parallel, with three-phase operation supported through VE.Can.
