Inverters convert DC (Direct Current) electricity generated by wind turbines and solar panels which is stored in batteries into 230V 50Hz AC (Alternating Current) power. True Sine Wave (pure sine wave) inverters produce a 'pure' and 'clean' AC supply that is very stable and free from surges and spikes. They are often required to power sensitive systems.
We supply the Victron Phoenix and Phoenix Smart inverter range, when choosing your inverter, please make sure that it is large enough to easily power your equipment. When in doubt, always buy larger, to avoid unnecessary problems later.
Due to the true sine wave output, the overall efficiency of the inverter, as well as the device being operated, also tends to be higher. This is mainly because all of the power output can be used, whereas some of the 'square' waveform produced by modified inverters cannot - leading to some of the power being wasted.
