Hybrid Inverter Quattro 12/5000/220-100/100 — is a true flagship among Victron Energy hybrid inverters with a 12V operating voltage. Designed for professional and industrial applications, it is capable of delivering up to 5,000 VA of power with a built-in 220 A battery charger, two independent AC inputs, and full support for off-grid, hybrid, and grid-connected Energy Storage Systems (ESS).
This device is a key component in projects where uninterruptible power, scalability, and safe operation with a wide range of battery capacities, including modern lithium batteries (LiFePO₄), are of paramount importance.
Three-phase configurations of three inverters are often used to build 400V networks with a capacity of 15 kVA, or parallel systems (up to 4 sets of 3 units) to scale the total capacity of a three-phase system up to an extreme 60 kVA / 48 kW.
Key Advantages of the Quattro 12/5000/220-100/100 Inverter
- Power 5,000 VA / 4,000 W, with a peak capacity of up to 10,000 W.
- Two independent AC inputs with an integrated intelligent transfer switch — automatic switching between the grid and a generator (or two generators).
- Each AC input supports PowerControl and PowerAssist technologies — ideal when working with an AC source of limited capacity, allowing the inverter to temporarily compensate for the lack of power using energy from the battery.
- Two AC outputs – the main output (AC-1) features a no-break functionality (switching time less than 20 ms). The second output (AC-2) is live only when external AC is available on one of the inputs, which protects the battery from being discharged by non-critical loads (e.g., a water heater).
- 100 A or 22 kW feed-through capacity – the maximum feed-through current is 100 A per input, allowing high power to pass from the grid without worrying about overloading the inverter's transit lines.
- High efficiency up to 94%, ensuring stable operation under significant loads.
- True pure sine wave output — flawless power supply for any sensitive electronics.
- 220 A battery charger — supports operation with 12V battery banks. The inverter's input voltage range is 9.5–17 V, making it perfectly compatible with LiFePO₄ (4S) configurations.
- Support for LiFePO₄ batteries with data exchange via VE.Bus or GX devices — safe, reliable, and durable integration.
- Industrial aluminum enclosure with an IP20 protection rating, designed to operate in a wide temperature range from –20 to +60°C.
- Scalability up to 48 kW / 60 kVA — up to 12 units in a single three-phase system.
Technological Features
Two AC Inputs with an Integrated Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)
- Quattro can be connected simultaneously to two independent AC sources: for example, the public grid + a generator, or two different generators.
- The device automatically connects to the active source according to the set priority.
- Switching occurs in less than 20 milliseconds, ensuring that computers and other IT equipment continue to operate without disruption (UPS function).
- Each input allows setting an individual current limit (PowerControl) to prevent overloading a limited generator or shore power line.
Ideal for Solar Systems
- Solar energy is the natural environment for the Quattro. It integrates seamlessly into:
- Off-grid systems
- Hybrid and grid-tied systems (ESS) involving MPPT solar chargers or grid-tie inverters
- Real-time solar self-consumption optimization modes
- Thanks to the VE.Bus interface, the system is easily configured via GX controllers (Cerbo GX / Ekrano GX) or VE.Configure software, adapting to any task.
Professional ESS Logic
Supports:
- maximum self-consumption of energy from photovoltaic (PV) panels;
- reliable backup in case of emergency grid failures;
- flexible storage scenarios (charging at night via a low tariff – discharging during the day);
- configuration of complex algorithms using Victron Assistants or remotely via the VRM portal.
LiFePO₄ Support – Communication
The Quattro 12/5000/220-100/100 is designed with full compatibility for lithium batteries (LiFePO₄). Integration with external BMS control systems and GX controllers provides:
- Intelligent management of charging profiles (absorption voltage 14.4V, float charge 13.8V, storage mode 13.2V).
- Comprehensive protection of the battery pack against overheating, overcharging, overvoltage, or deep discharge.
- Accurate tracking of the state of charge (SOC) and system temperature.
- Maximum safety and a significant extension of the lithium cells' service life.
Usage Scenarios
- Industrial and commercial facilities – ensuring the continuity of technological processes.
- Business centers, medical institutions – backup for critical zones and equipment.
- Large-scale off-grid and hybrid solar power stations.
- Vehicles (campers, motorhomes, specialized vehicles) and marine vessels (yachts, boats) utilizing a 12V onboard network.
- Telecommunication nodes, server rooms, and data centers – uninterruptible power supply for communication infrastructure.
ECE R10-4 Electromagnetic Compatibility Standard for Vehicles
The 12V and 24V Victron Quattro inverter models are certified according to the ECE R10-4 standard. This is a strict electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standard applied to electronic equipment used in vehicles.
What does the ECE R10-4 Certificate mean for Victron Energy Inverters?
Low Electromagnetic Emission Level
- The inverters do not create radio frequency interference that could disrupt the operation of standard automotive or marine electronics, radio communications, GPS navigators, autopilots, or mobile networks.
High Resistance to External Electromagnetic Interference
- The equipment operates stably in the harsh conditions of onboard networks (trucks, buses, special equipment, yachts), which are characterized by sudden voltage fluctuations, ripples, and strong fields.
Safe Integration into Transportation Systems
- Compliance with the requirements of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) guarantees that the inverter can be legally integrated into a vehicle without the risk of negatively affecting critical vehicle safety systems (such as ABS, ESP, etc.).
Communication Interfaces and Settings
- VE.Bus – the main port for parallel or three-phase inverter connections, GX monitoring system integration, and remote configuration.
- USB/RS232 (via MK3-USB interface) – for system parameter configuration from a PC using VE.Configure software or the VictronConnect app.
- VE.Bus Smart Dongle – an optional module for wireless monitoring of key indicators (voltage, temperature, status) via Bluetooth directly on a smartphone.
- GX Controllers (Cerbo GX / Ekrano GX) – expand the inverter's functionality with VE.Can, VE.Direct, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and USB ports. They unify all system modules (MPPT controllers, shunts, batteries with BMS) and allow you to remotely monitor, manage, and configure the system via the free VRM Online Portal from anywhere in the world.
