Victron Quattro 12/5000/220-100/100 Inverter 4000W and Charger

Innovative combination device from Victron: sine wave inverter and 12 V battery charger as well as transfer switch in one!

The Quattro 12/5000/220 from Victron is a device combination consisting of a 4000 W sine wave inverter, a battery charger, and a transfer switch. The smartly integrated battery charger delivers an impressive 220 A, allowing batteries to be charged extremely quickly when shore/grid power is available. The clever feature: the device can be connected to two independent AC sources. This could be, for example, a generator and a shore power connection, or two generators. The Quattro automatically switches to the active source.
The sine wave inverter integrated in the Victron Quattro transforms the 12V DC from the battery into 230 V AC. Thanks to the true sine wave, the voltage quality is perfectly suited even for sensitive electronic devices.
Furthermore, a lightning-fast 100 A transfer switch is also built in, allowing grid-connected systems to be implemented.

Two AC inputs with integrated transfer switch

The Quattro can be connected to two independent AC sources: for example, to the public grid and a generator or also to two generators. The Quattro automatically connects to the active source.

Two AC outputs

The main output ensures uninterrupted operation. In the event of a power outage or an interruption of shore/generator power, the Quattro takes over the supply of the connected loads. The switchover happens so quickly (in less than 20 milliseconds) that uninterrupted operation of computers and other electronic devices is guaranteed. The second output only supplies power when AC is available at one of the Quattro's inputs. Loads that must not discharge the battery, such as a water heater, can be connected to this output.

Virtually unlimited power through parallel connection

Up to 6 Quattros can be connected in parallel. For example, six 48/10000/140 units result in 54 kW/60 kVA power or 840 A charging current. Three-phase operation Three units can be connected in a three-phase configuration. But that's not all: Up to 6 sets of three devices can be connected in parallel, resulting in 162 kW/180 kVA inverter power and over 2,500 A charging capacity.

PowerControl – Working with limited generator power, restricted shore or grid power

The Quattro is a very powerful battery charger. Therefore, it draws a lot of current from the generator or shore power supply (16 A per 5 kVA Quattro at 230 VAC). A current limit can be set at each of the AC inputs. The Quattro then takes into account other connected AC loads and uses only the current that is "left over" for charging. This prevents the generator or grid connection from being overloaded.

PowerAssist – Increasing shore connection or generator power

With this function, the PowerControl principle takes on a new dimension, as the Quattro supports any undersized alternative source. Load peaks often occur only for a limited period. In such a case, the Quattro ensures that an undersized grid or generator power is immediately compensated by energy from the battery. If the load is reduced, i.e., consumers are switched off, the then sufficiently available energy can be used to charge the batteries.

Solar power: AC even in case of power failure

The Quattro can be used in both off-grid and grid-connected PV systems, as well as in other alternative energy systems. Software for detecting a power failure is available.

System configuration -

If settings need to be changed on a single device, this can be done within a few minutes using a DIP switch setting procedure. - Parallel-connected and three-phase systems can be configured with the VE.Bus Quick Configure and VE.Bus System Configurator software. - Off-grid, grid-connected and self-consumption systems using grid-tie inverters and/or MPPT solar chargers can be configured using assistants (associated software for the respective systems).

On-site monitoring and control

Several options are available: Battery monitor, Multi Control Panel, Ve.Net Blue Power Panel, Color Control Panel, Smartphone or Tablet (Bluetooth Smart), Laptop or Computer (USB or RS232).

Remote monitoring and control

Victron Ethernet Remote, Victron Global Remote and the Color Control Panel. Data can be stored and viewed free of charge on our VRM (Victron Remote Management) website. Remote configuration: If systems with a Color Control Panel are connected to the Ethernet, they can be accessed and settings can be changed remotely.
