Outback VFX2812 Inverter 2.8 kW, 12 Volt, Vented, DCC included, 125A charger

SKU: OBP-17023

The OutBack VFX series is a modular “building block” sine wave inverter/charger that can be used for both small and large power systems. Each OutBack VFX inverter/charger is a complete power conversion system – DC to AC inverter, battery charger and AC transfer switch. Additional FX inverter/chargers can be connected at any time in either parallel (120 V AC), series (120/240 V AC) or three-phase (120/208 VAC) configurations. This allows a system to be tailored to meet the specific power conversion requirements of the application, both at the time of the installation and in the future.



The OutBack VFX series is also available in export versions with 230 V AC, 50 Hz output that can be connected in parallel (230 V AC) or in three phase (230/400 V AC) configurations. The new OutBack VFX series is a ventilated version of the original sealed FX series modular “building block” sine wave inverter/charger. By allowing cooler outside airflow through the internal electronics, more AC power is available and operation in extremely hot environments is improved compared to the sealed FX. The VFX can be used in high ambient applications up to 140 °F (60 °C) with reduced output ratings.



The OutBack VFX series inverter/charger system is designed for both residential and commercial stand-alone or back-up power applications with battery energy storage. It is designed to operate as a coordinated system with the other OutBack products i.e. the PSDC, PSAC and PSR enclosures as well as the MX60 MPPT charge controllers and MATE system controller and display.

Vented Construction Features

• Powdercoated all aluminum die-cast chassis


• Internal electronic components are cooled by outside air


• Stainless steel screen to protect air intake and internal fan


• UL 94V0 plastic vent grills to protect the air exhaust. All openings are 0.0025 inches square to keep out dirt, bugs, and other critters – OutBack calls it “bug proof” construction


• Air inlet comes with removable, washable foam filter insert to trap small particles


• Conformal coated circuit boards to resist corrosion


• Higher output power when inverting or battery charging when compared with the sealed FX inverter versions


• Designed to allow easy field servicing and repair


• Better screening from bugs than any other vented inverter


• Built and tested to work as an industrial grade product – Not throw away non-repairable consumer grade offshore toy

Field Serviceable

• Both FX and VFX inverter/chargers can be upgraded or serviced – even in the field

Very Quiet

• The sealed FX inverters are virtually silent. The bugproof VFX inverters only have a variable speed thermostatically controlled fan. No more transformer buzz to annoy you

Networked Communications

• All of OutBack products can be connected together to formn a network with monitoring and control via a single MATE display.

Ideal Applications

• Montana, Arizona, California where salt air is not a problem


• More watts per dollar compared to the original sealed versions


• Installations where protected environments are available

Extremely Rugged

• Built to survive dust, bugs, even rain and salt air. Choice of sealed FX or bug-proof VFX versions

Ultra Clean AC Power

• Smooth, true sinewave AC output waveform – not a “34 to 52 step” sinewave approximation

Easy System Expansion

• Systems can grow with your needs – up to ten inverter/chargers can be stacked for up to 36,000 watts of continuous AC power

High Surge Power

• Proprietary current control system allows starting of larger motors than by other inverter designs

Intelligent Battery Charger

• Advanced charging algorithms provide fast recharging while increasing battery life

Simple To Operate

• Everything works automatically. The system can be installed and programmed and then the MATE system controller can
  
  be removed for totally goof proof operation.

Capable Tech Support Help

• You can call or email and ask questions of the engineers that designed your products - Tech support doesn’t get any better than that.

Coolness Factor

• These inverters have a built in “WOW” factor to impress the neighbors and in-laws.
