Charging & Output Modes
The MultiPlus offers sophisticated control over both battery charging and AC power output, ensuring optimal performance and battery longevity.
| Mode/Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Adaptive 4-Stage Charging | Utilises Bulk, Absorption, Float, and Storage stages, adjusting to battery usage for optimal health. |
| Storage Mode | Reduces float voltage to minimise gassing and corrosion during periods of inactivity, with weekly equalisation. |
| PowerControl | Limits AC input current to prevent overloading generators or shore power, prioritising loads over charging. |
| PowerAssist | Supplements limited AC sources with battery power during peak demand, then recharges batteries when demand drops. |
| UPS Functionality | Ensures continuous AC supply by automatically switching to inverter mode upon grid failure in less than 20ms. |
Typical Applications
| Application | Description |
|---|---|
| Off-Grid Systems | Provides reliable AC power for remote homes, cabins, and workshops where grid connection is unavailable. |
| Mobile & Marine Power | Ideal for RVs, caravans, boats, and yachts, converting battery power to run onboard appliances and electronics. |
| Backup Power Solutions | Ensures critical loads remain powered during grid outages, acting as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). |
| Small Business & Commercial | Supports essential equipment in small businesses, offices, or remote sites requiring stable and consistent power. |

Common Questions
What type of batteries is this MultiPlus compatible with?
The MultiPlus 12/3000/120-16 is designed for 12V battery banks and features adaptive charging that can be configured for various battery types, including lead-acid (GEL, AGM, Flooded) and Lithium batteries.
Can I monitor and control the MultiPlus remotely?
Yes, when paired with a Victron GX device (such as a Cerbo GX), you can monitor and control your MultiPlus and entire system locally or remotely via the internet using the free Victron Remote Management (VRM) app or portal website.
What is the purpose of PowerAssist?
PowerAssist boosts the capacity of a limited AC source (like a generator or shore power) by drawing additional power from the battery when demand exceeds the AC input limit. This allows you to run larger loads without tripping breakers.
Are connecting cables included with the unit?
No, connecting cables are not supplied with this inverter/charger. It is essential to use appropriately sized cables for safe and efficient operation. Refer to the user manual for detailed recommendations on cable length and thickness.
Installation Notes
- Installation should be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations.
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating, as it features fan-assisted cooling.
- Always disconnect AC power and battery leads before performing any maintenance or installation work.
- Refer to the comprehensive Victron user manual for detailed wiring diagrams, safety guidelines, and configuration instructions.
Before You Buy
- Verify your battery bank voltage (12V) and capacity are suitable for a 3000VA inverter and 120A charger.
- Consider your total power requirements (VA/W) and surge loads to ensure the 3000VA/6000W peak capacity is sufficient.
- Plan for appropriate cable sizing and protection devices (fuses/breakers) for both DC and AC connections.
- If remote monitoring is desired, consider purchasing a compatible Victron GX device separately.
Always consult the official Victron Energy documentation for the most accurate and up-to-date specifications and installation guidelines. This product comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty.
