Victron Energy - 48V - 6000VA Inverter RS 48/6000 Smart

Victron Inverter RS 48/6000 Smart Solar: High-Frequency 48V Inverter with Integrated 4kW MPPT

Advanced 48V to 230V Pure Sine Wave Inverter for Off-Grid and Backup Power Systems

The Victron Inverter RS 48/6000 Smart Solar combines a powerful 6000VA pure sine wave inverter with a built-in high-voltage MPPT solar charge controller, delivering a compact and efficient solution for demanding off-grid and hybrid energy systems. Weighing only 11 kg, this high-frequency inverter achieves up to 96.5% peak efficiency, minimising energy losses and reducing heat buildup in enclosed installations.

Designed for 48V battery banks, it provides reliable 230V AC output for essential loads in residential, marine, and mobile applications. The integrated 4kW MPPT accepts PV array voltages from 80V to 450V DC, enabling longer series strings with reduced cable losses and simplified wiring compared to low-voltage charge controllers.

Integrated High-Voltage MPPT: Maximise Solar Harvest

The onboard MPPT 450V/100A solar charger unlocks the full potential of your PV array. By operating at higher voltages, it allows thinner, more cost-effective cabling over longer distances while maintaining excellent conversion efficiency. This is particularly valuable for ground-mount arrays or installations where the solar array is located far from the inverter. The MPPT tracks the maximum power point rapidly, even under partial shading or fluctuating irradiance, ensuring optimal energy yield throughout the day.

Smart Monitoring and System Integration

Stay in control with multiple communication options. The built-in Bluetooth interface pairs with the VictronConnect app for real-time monitoring and configuration from your smartphone or tablet. For advanced system integration, the VE.Can port connects to a GX device (such as the Cerbo GX) for comprehensive remote management via the VRM portal. A VE.Direct port is also available for linking to a GlobalLink 520 for cellular monitoring in remote locations. Two programmable analog/digital input ports allow custom automation, such as generator start/stop or load shedding triggers.

Key Features

• 6000VA continuous output at 25°C with 9kW peak surge capability for motor starting
• Integrated 4kW MPPT solar charger with 80-450V DC input range for high-voltage PV strings
• Parallel operation: up to 12 units for single-phase and 4 units per phase in three-phase configurations
• VE.Can, VE.Direct, and Bluetooth for flexible local and remote monitoring
• Fan-assisted cooling with wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +65°C
• Programmable relay and two digital/analog inputs for custom system control
• Battery temperature sensor and voltage sense included for accurate charging

Built for Reliability in Harsh Environments

Engineered to perform in extreme conditions, the Inverter RS operates reliably from -40°C to +65°C, making it suitable for unheated sheds, remote telecom sites, and mobile applications exposed to temperature swings. The IP21-rated enclosure is designed for indoor mounting in protected locations. Active fan cooling maintains safe internal temperatures during sustained high loads, while conformal-coated electronics provide additional protection against humidity and dust ingress.

Unlike conventional low-frequency inverters, the high-frequency design significantly reduces weight and standby consumption (just 20W zero-load power), which is critical for off-grid systems where every watt-hour counts. The M8 bolt battery terminals and 10mm² (6 AWG) AC screw terminals ensure secure, low-resistance connections for high-current wiring.

Applications

• Off-grid homes and cabins requiring reliable 230V power from 48V battery banks
• Backup power systems with solar charging for critical loads during grid outages
• Marine and RV installations where weight and space are at a premium
• Remote industrial and telecommunications sites needing autonomous power
• Scalable energy systems with parallel or three-phase capability for larger loads
