Victron MultiPlus Compact 24/1600/40-16 230V Inverter Charger – CMP242160000

The Victron MultiPlus Compact 24/1600/40-16 is a compact yet powerful 24V inverter charger, combining a 1600VA pure sine wave inverter, 40A battery charger and 16A AC transfer switch in one unit.

Designed for installations where space is limited, the MultiPlus Compact is ideal for campervans, motorhomes, boats and off-grid electrical systems that require reliable 230V power alongside intelligent battery charging.

1600VA Pure Sine Wave Inverter

The MultiPlus Compact converts power from your 24V leisure battery bank into 230V AC, allowing you to operate compatible mains appliances when you're away from an external hook-up supply.

Its pure sine wave output provides clean, stable AC power, making it suitable for a wide range of appliances and sensitive electronic equipment.

Built-In 40A Battery Charger

When connected to shore power or another suitable AC supply, the MultiPlus Compact automatically becomes an intelligent 40A battery charger, helping replenish your 24V leisure battery bank efficiently.

Combining the inverter and charger into a single unit reduces the number of separate components required within your electrical installation and helps create a cleaner, more integrated system.

PowerAssist & PowerControl

The Victron MultiPlus Compact features Victron's intelligent PowerControl and PowerAssist technology.

PowerControl allows the available shore or generator supply to be limited, helping prevent the external AC source from becoming overloaded.

If your appliances temporarily demand more power than the external supply can provide, PowerAssist can supplement the incoming AC supply with additional power from the battery and inverter.

This can be particularly useful when connecting a campervan or motorhome to a campsite hook-up with a restricted supply.

Automatic AC Transfer

With an integrated 16A transfer switch, the MultiPlus Compact can automatically manage the transition between external mains power and inverter operation.

When shore power is available, the unit can pass AC power through while charging the leisure batteries. When the external supply is removed, the MultiPlus can provide 230V power from the battery bank through its inverter.

Compact Design for Space-Saving Installations

One of the key advantages of this model is its compact enclosure.

Measuring approximately 375 x 214 x 110mm and weighing around 10kg, the MultiPlus Compact is particularly useful in campervans, motorhomes and boats where electrical installation space can be limited.

Despite its relatively compact dimensions, it combines the functionality of an inverter, battery charger and transfer switch in a single unit.

VE.Bus Connectivity

The MultiPlus Compact features VE.Bus communication, allowing it to integrate with compatible Victron equipment and system controls.

This makes it a strong choice for customers who want to build a more comprehensive Victron Energy electrical system rather than simply installing a standalone inverter.
