VICTRON QUATTRO 5kWA  – MULTI-FUNCTION BATTERY CHARGERS

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 with integrated transfer switch
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.
Two AC outputs
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 then 20 milliseconds) that computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption. The second output is live only when AC source is available.
Loads that should discharge the battery, like a water heater for example can be connected to this output.
Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel operation
Up to 10 Quattro’s can operate in parallel. Ten units 24/5000/120, for example, will provide 40kW / 50kVA output power and 1200 Amp charging capacity.
Three phase capability
Three units can be configured for three-phase output and up to 6 sets of three units can be parallel connected to provide 75kW / 90kVA inverter power and more then 2000 Amp charging capacity.
Power Control – 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 (16A per Quattro at 230 VAC). A current limit can be set for both AC inputs. The Quattro will then take account of the other AC loads and use whatever is spare for charging, thus preventing the generator or shore supply from being overloaded.
Power Assist – Boosting shore or generator power
Where peak power is so often required only for a limited period, the Quattro makes sure that insufficient shore 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. With this feature, problems related to insufficient shore or generator power are solved once and for all. Air conditioning, an electric hob, a washing machine, a dish washer, a 16A shore connection, or even less then16A, will not limit you in any way.
