MultiPlus-II 12/3000 - 120-50 - 2x 120V

The MultiPlus-II combines the functions of the MultiPlus and the MultiGrid. It has all the features of the MultiPlus, plus an external current transformer option to implement PowerControl and PowerAssist and to optimize self-consumption with external current sensing (max. 32A).

It also has all the features of the MultiGrid with built-in anti-islanding and an increasingly long list of country approvals.

PowerAssist

The MultiPlus-II will prevent the overload of a limited AC source, such as a generator or shore power connection. First, battery charging will automatically be reduced when otherwise an overload occurs. The second level will boost the output of a generator or shoreside supply with power taken from the battery.

ESS: Energy Storage Systems

The MultiPlus-II is the critical component in a Victron ESS system, providing the flexibility to combine with MPPT Solar Chargers or Grid-tie PV Inverters. For examples and more detailed information see the ESS (Energy Storage System) manual.

Uninterrupted AC Power (UPS function)

In the event of a grid failure, or when shore or generator power is disconnected, the inverter within the Multi is automatically activated and takes over the supply to the connected loads. This happens so fast (less than 20 milliseconds) that computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption.

Remote Monitoring & Control

When coupled with a GX device (e.g. Cerbo GX) you can monitor and control your Multi and system or systems' locally (LAN) or remotely via the internet from anywhere in the world, using the free VRM app and free VRM portal website. Access can be from a phone, tablet, laptop, or PC for multiple operating systems. There is no end to the level of control, from adjusting your Multi to auto-starting a backup generator and more.

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the MultiPlus-II unit regularly using a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals that can damage the surface or internal components.

• Ensure Proper Ventilation: Install the unit in a well-ventilated area to allow for proper airflow. Make sure vents are unobstructed and free from dust buildup to prevent overheating and ensure optimal performance.

• Inspect Connections: Periodically check the unit’s input and output connections for any loose or corroded terminals, as well as signs of wear. Tighten any loose bolts or screws and clean any corrosion to prevent electrical issues.

• Monitor Battery Charge: Regularly monitor the state of charge of the connected batteries. Ensure they are being charged within the recommended range and that the MultiPlus-II is charging them efficiently without overcharging or undercharging.

• Test Functionality: Conduct periodic performance tests to verify that both the inverter and charger functions are working as expected. Ensure the system is properly converting DC to AC power and charging the batteries.

• Check for Firmware Updates: Ensure the unit’s firmware is up to date by checking for software updates through Victron's app or other compatible devices. Keeping the software current helps maintain performance and access to new features.

• Avoid Overloading: Be mindful not to exceed the MultiPlus-II’s rated output of 3000W continuous. Overloading can lead to overheating and damage to internal components. Ensure the system’s power draw remains within safe limits.

• Battery Charging Settings: Verify that the charging settings are correctly configured for the battery type you are using. This ensures optimal battery life and prevents improper charging that could damage your batteries or the MultiPlus-II.
