Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/230V Inverter/Charger

Similar to the MultiPlus, the Quattro is also a combined inverter and charger. Additionally it can accept two AC inputs and automatically connect to the active source. Its many features include a true sine wave inverter, adaptive charging, hybrid PowerAssist technology plus multiple system integration features such as three or split phase operation and parallel operation.

Feature Bullets

• Multifunctional - Similar to the MultiPlus, the Quattro is also a combined inverter and charger. Additionally it can accept two AC inputs and automatically connect to the active source. Its many features include a true sine wave inverter, adaptive charging, hybrid PowerAssist technology plus multiple system integration features such as three or split phase operation and parallel operation
• Two AC Inputs & two AC Outputs - The Quattro can be connected to two independent AC sources, for example shore-side power and a generator, or two generators. The Quattro will automatically connect to the active source. The main output has no-break functionality. In the event of a grid failure, or shore or generator power being disconnected, the Quattro 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. The second output is live only when AC is available on one of the inputs of the Quattro. Loads that should not discharge the battery, such as air-conditioning or a water heater can be connected to this output
• Unique PowerAssist feature - The Quattro will prevent 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 would occur. The second level will boost the output of a generator or shore side supply with power taken from the battery
• Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel operation - Up to 6 Quattros can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Three phase or split phase operation is also possible. Please check our datasheets to see which models have paralleling, three phase and split phase capabilities
• Remote Monitoring and Control - When coupled with a GX device (e.g. Cerbo GX) you can monitor and control your Quattro 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 Quattro to auto starting a backup generator and more
• Split phase option - A split phase AC source can be obtained by connecting our autotransformer to a 'European' inverter programmed to supply 240 V/60 Hz
• Three phase capability - Three units can be configured for three phase output. But that's not all: up to 4 sets of three 15 kVA units can be parallel connected to provide 144 kW / 180 kVA inverter power and 2400 A charging capacity
• PowerControl - Dealing with limited generator, shore side or grid power - The Quattro is a very powerful battery charger. It will therefore draw a lot of current from the generator or shore side supply (16 A per 5 kVA Quattro at 230 VAC). A current limit can be set on each AC input. The Quattro will then take account of other AC loads and use whatever is spare for charging, thus preventing the generator or mains supply from being overloaded
• PowerAssist - Boosting shore or generator power - This feature takes the principle of PowerControl to a further dimension allowing the Quattro to supplement the capacity the alternative source. Where peak power is so often required only for a limited period, the Quattro will make sure that insufficient mains or generator power is immediately compensated for by power from the battery. When the load reduces, the spare power is used to recharge the battery
• Solar energy: AC power available even during a grid failure - The Quattro can be used in off grid as well as grid connected PV and other alternative energy systems. Loss of mains detection software is available
• System configuring - In case of a stand-alone application, if settings have to be changed, this can be done in a matter of minutes with a DIP switch setting procedure. Parallel and three phase applications can be configured with VE.Bus Quick Configure and VE.Bus System Configurator software. Off grid, grid interactive and self-consumption applications, involving grid-tie inverters and/or MPPT Solar Chargers can be configured with Assistants (dedicated software for specific applications)
• On-site Monitoring and control - Several options are available: Battery Monitor, Multi Control Panel, Color Control GX or other GX devices, smartphone or tablet (Bluetooth Smart), laptop or computer (USB or RS232)
• Remote configuring - When connected to the Ethernet, systems with a Color Control GX or other GX device can be accessed and settings can be changed remotely
• VE.Bus communication port - For parallel and three phase operation, remote monitoring and system integration
• Digital Multi Control Panel - A convenient and low cost solution for remote monitoring, with a rotary knob to set PowerControl and PowerAssist levels
• VE.Bus Smart Dongle - and temperature and allows monitoring and control of Multis and Quattros with a smartphone or other Bluetooth enabled device
• Computer controlled operation and monitoring Several interfaces are available - Color Control GX and other GX devices Monitoring and control. Locally, and also remotely on the VRM Portal, MK3-USB (VE.Bus to USB interface) - Connects to a USB port. VE.Bus to NMEA 2000 interface - Connects the device to a NMEA 2000 marine electronics network
• BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor - Use a smartphone or other Bluetooth enabled device to: customize settings, monitor all important data on single screen, view historical data, and to update the software when new features become available
