The motor is a GreenStar Marine E20 rated at over 10kW max - which GreenStar say is equivalent to a 20HP marine engine. The great thing about having an electric motor on board a sailing yacht, of course, is that when you’re voyaging under sail the motor becomes your electricity generator. Sailing at a little over 7 knots (the maximum hull speed for their classic Scandinavian long keeled yacht) they’re expecting their propulsion unit, working as a hydrogenerator, to return an enviable 1000W/1400W from their three blade 15 x 9 propellor. Tiger and Julia are installing the motor themselves. Ocean voyaging demands self reliance - so it is essential to understand every aspect of your vessel’s gear. Tiger’s shopping list for Idun’s electrical installation is as follows: The Lynx Smart Battery Management System controls the charging of Victron Energy Lithium Batteries, and protects them from misuse. The Smart Battery Protect automatically ensures that the ‘house’ and ‘starter’ battery cannot accidentally be depleted by DC loads. The SmartShunt monitors the power in/ out of the main battery bank, and reports its State of Charge. It can also monitor
13 the voltage of a second battery bank, a midpoint voltage, or a temperature sensor. The Galvanic Isolator ensures that her underwater gear will not be damaged by galvanic corrosion whilst plugged into shore power. Julia and Tiger invite you to follow them on their Instagram page which they will keep updated with news and pictures of their preparations. They welcome any questions about their set up and plans ...and once underway they’ll be sharing their ocean experience with you first-hand. AC supply AC loads essential Loads nonessential DC loads
Fountaine Pajot Helia 44 catamaran APPLICATION EXAMPLE Frits Boonen and his wife Liza will soon be setting off on a circumnavigation. For the next ten years they will be living aboard their Fountaine Pajot Helia 44 - a catamaran which they have adapted for their voyage. One of those adaptations was to remove the propane gas cooker - both because of the inherent dangers of gas, and because it can be a real hassle to find replacement cylinders in remote locations around the world. The galley is now all-electric - boasting an induction hob, electric oven, electric Barbecue, and a washing machine. To support all these new conveniences their power supply had to be re-imagined. Frits and Liza want to lie to their anchor independent from the shore for up to two months at a time without using shore-based battery-charging.
At the heart of their power system two 3kW Quattro Inverter/Chargers provide 230VAC to domestic appliances from the boat’s 12VDC battery storage. Their Quattro’s have a 120A charging ability which makes short work of recharging their impressive 900Ah battery bank from generator. On board the catamaran, four charging methods are available: There is a 1kWp solar array with multiple MPPT solar charge controllers to maximise power harvest. Two engine-driven high power smart alternators are provided with two BuckBoost DC-DC converters which accept a wide range of alternator output voltages for conversion to a stable battery-charging voltage at 12V or 24V. There is an AC generator which can be started manually - or automatically by a relay which is tripped whenever the battery bank falls below 30% state-of-charge. Battery charging (and discharging) is controlled by a VE.Bus BMS battery management system.
Once the battery bank has been recharged to 90% state of charge the generator is automatically shut down. The vessel’s battery bank can also be charged from a shore supply. An Isolation Transformer ensures the safety of crew and vessel from ground faults and galvanic corrosion; it also automatically switches between 115 and 230 VAC depending on local supply. The Quattros can easily be programmed with a current limit to match the pontoon’s marine power distribution network threshold. Any power-demand above that threshold will not trip a shore-side fuse thanks to Quattros PowerAssist feature which will instantly supplement excess demand with power from the battery bank. When the power demand falls below the set threshold, the Quattro will make maximum use of shore power by sending any surplus power - up to the threshold - to recharge the batteries.

MARINE SYSTEM DESIGNS Flexible building blocks for any power challenge With our modular robust product range you can build power systems exactly to the most demanding specifications. Here are a few examples, from a simple system having only DC devices, to larger parallel- and three-phase systems. 1. Simple system using only DC devices The battery charger also funtions as a power supply. Battery Charger DC Loads Shore Power Battery
19 2. System with inverter This system uses an inverter to supply 230VAC or 120VAC. Many charger models have three outputs which allow for several battery groups to be charged separately. Battery Charger Battery Battery Battery Inverter DC Loads Shore Power AC Loads
MARINE SYSTEM DESIGNS Uninterruptable AC-power on board Using our extremely resilient pure sine wave inverter/chargers, sensitive electronics can be safely powered. They provide peak-power supply at about twice their continuous rated capacity - this ensures problem-free start-up of motor- powered devices, for example. Tell the inverter the current limit of available shore- or generator-power and its PowerControl feature will keep the AC input below that limit - regardless of demand. Yet, thanks to the PowerAssist feature, above-limit demands will instantly be met by adding battery-power to the supply. No more tripping shore fuses, or overloaded generators. When on-board loads once again fall below the current limit, the available surplus energy - up to the trip limit - will be used to recharge the batteries. So it's no longer necessary to size a generator according to the maximum expected load; it can be downsized, saving cost and weight. Enjoy reliable energy at any time with a MultiPlus or Quattro inverter/charger on board.
21 PowerAssist – boosting the capacity of shore or generator power 3. Multi-functional The MultiPlus inverter/charger will function as a UPS (uninterruptible power supply). Its AC output power can be added to a limited shore power source - boosting it with battery power thanks to the PowerAssist feature. DC Loads Shore Power AC Loads MultiPlus Water heater Digital Multi Control Battery
MARINE SYSTEM DESIGNS MultiPlus and Quattro inverter/chargers The MultiPlus and Quattro products play a central role in both AC and DC systems. They are both powerful battery chargers and inverters in one box. If more than one AC source is available, choose the Quattro - it accepts two AC sources, automatically switching to the live source (auto source select). It also has two AC outputs, and will shutdown output 2 (which should be used on-purpose to supply non-essential loads) when there is no AC input. 4. System with AC-generator The Quattro has the same functions as the MultiPlus, but with an extra function a transfer system which can be directly connected to shore power and a generator.

Proven reliability The full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology has proven its reliability over many years. The inverters are short circuit proof and protected against overheating, whether due to overload or high ambient temperature. High start-up power Needed to start loads such as power converters for LED lamps, halogen lamps or electric tools. ECO mode When in ECO mode, the inverter will switch to standby when the load decreases below a preset value. Once in standby the inverter will switch on for a short period every 2,5 seconds (adjustable). If the load exceeds the preset level, the inverter will remain on. Remote on/off A remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected to a two pole connector. Alternatively, the H terminal (left) of the two pole connector can be switched to battery plus, or the L terminal (right) of the two pole connector can be switched to battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle, for example). LED diagnosis Please see manual for a description. To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch For our low power inverters we recommend our Filax Automatic Transfer Switch. The Filax features a very short switchover time (less than 20 milliseconds) so that computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption. Alternatively use a MultiPlus with built-in transfer switch. Inverters Smart 1600 VA – 5000 VA Inverter Smart 12/3000 Battery Charger Inverter

??????? INVERTERS 1200VA - 5000VA - 230V www.victronenergy.com Victron Energy B.V. | De Paal 35 | 1351 JG Almere | The Netherlands E-mail: sales@victronenergy.com www.victronenergy.com SinusMax - Superior engineering Developed for professional duty, this range of inverters is suitable for the widest range of applications. The design criteria have been to produce a true sine wave inverter with optimized efficiency but without compromise in performance. Employing hybrid HF technology, the result is a top quality product with compact dimensions, light in weight and capable of supplying power, problem-free, to any load. Extra start-up power A unique feature of the SinusMax technology is very high start-up power. Conventional high frequency technology does not offer such extreme performance. The Inverters, however, are well suited to power up difficult loads such as refrigeration compressors, electric motors and similar appliances. Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel and 3-phase operation capability Up to 6 units inverters can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 24/5000 units, for example, will provide 24 kW / 30 kVA output power. Operation in 3-phase configuration is also possible. To transfer the load to another AC source: the automatic transfer switch If an automatic transfer switch is required we recommend using the MultiPlus inverter/charger instead. The switch is included in these products and the charger function of the MultiPlus can be disabled. Computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption because the MultiPlus features a very short switchover time (less than 20 milliseconds). Communications interface These larger inverter models come with a VE.Bus port. All you need to connect to your PC is our MK3-USB VE.Bus to USB interface (see under accessories). Together with our VictronConnect or VEConfigure software, which can be downloaded free of charge from our website, parameters of the inverters can be customized. This includes output voltage and frequency, over and under voltage settings and programming the relay. This relay can for example be used to signal several alarm conditions, or to start a generator. The inverters can also be connected to a GX device (eg Cerbo GX) for monitoring and control. New applications of high power inverters The possibilities of paralleled high power inverters are truly amazing.

??????? www.victronenergy.com Multifunctional, with intelligent power management The MultiPlus is a powerful true sine wave inverter, a sophisticated battery charger that features adaptive charge technology, and a highspeed AC transfer switch in a single compact enclosure. Next to these primary functions, the MultiPlus has several advanced features, as outlined below. Parallel operation and three phase capability Up to six Multis can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. In addition to parallel connection, three units can be configured for three-phase output. PowerControl - Dealing with limited generator, shore side or grid power With the Multi Control Panel a maximum generator or shore current can be set. The MultiPlus will then take account of other AC loads and use whatever is extra for charging, thus preventing the generator or shore supply from being overloaded. PowerAssist - Boosting the capacity of shore or generator power This feature takes the principle of PowerControl to a further dimension. It allows the MultiPlus to supplement the capacity of the alternative source. Where peak power is so often required only for a limited period, the MultiPlus will make 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. Four stage adaptive charger and dual bank battery charging The main output provides a powerful charge to the battery system by means of advanced ‘adaptive charge’ software. The software finetunes the three-stage automatic process to suit the condition of the battery, and adds a fourth stage for long periods of float charging. The adaptive charge process is described in more detail on the Charger datasheet and on our website, under Technical Information. In addition to this, the MultiPlus will charge a second battery using an independent trickle charge output intended for a main engine or generator starter battery. High start-up power Needed to start high inrush loads such as power converters for LED lamps, halogen lamps or electric tools. Search Mode When Search Mode is ‘on’, the power consumption of the inverter in no-load operation is decreased by approx. 70%. In this mode the Multi, when operating in inverter mode, is switched off in case of no load or very low load, and switches on every two seconds for a short period. If the output current exceeds a set level, the inverter will continue to operate. If not, the inverter will shut down again. Programmable relay By default, the programmable relay is set as an alarm relay, i.e. the relay will de-energise in the event of an alarm or a pre-alarm (inverter almost too hot, ripple on the input almost too high, battery voltage almost too low). Remote on / off / charger on Three pole connector. On-site system configuring, monitoring and control After installation, the MultiPlus is ready to go. Some settings can be changed with DIP switches. 500/800/1200VA models: remote switch / battery charge voltage / inverter frequency /search mode. 1600/2000VA models: battery charge voltage / search mode.

??????? MULTIPLUS-II INVERTER/CHARGER 230V \ MultiPlus-II Inverter/Charger 230 V Grid parallel topology with MPPT solar charge controller The MultiPlus-II will use data from the external AC current sensor (must be ordered separately) or power meter to optimise selfconsumption and, if required, to prevent grid feed. In case of a power outage, the MultiPlus-II will continue to supply the critical loads Standard marine, mobile or off-grid application Loads that should shut down when AC input power is not available can be connected to a second output (not shown). These loads will be taken into account by the PowerControl and PowerAssist function in order to limit AC input current to a safe value when AC power is available. A MultiPlus, plus ESS (Energy Storage System) functionality The MultiPlus-II is a multifunctional inverter/charger with all the features of the MultiPlus, plus an external current sensor option which extends the PowerControl and PowerAssist function to 50A resp. 100A. The MultiPlus-II is ideally suited for professional marine, yachting, vehicle and land based off-grid applications. It also has built-in anti-islanding functionality, and an increasingly long list of country approvals for ESS application. Several system configurations are possible. For more detailed information see the ESS Design and configuration manual. PowerControl and PowerAssist - Boosting the capacity of the grid or a generator A maximum grid or generator current can be set. The MultiPlus-II will then take account of other AC loads and use whatever is extra for battery charging, thus preventing the generator or grid from being overloaded (PowerControl function). PowerAssist takes the principle of PowerControl to a further dimension. Where peak power is so often required only for a limited period, the MultiPlus-II will compensate insufficient generator, shore or grid power with 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 MultiPlus-II can be used in off grid as well as grid connected PV and other alternative energy systems. It is compatible with both solar charger controllers and grid-tie inverters. Two AC Outputs The main output has no break functionality. The MultiPlus-II takes over the supply to the connected loads in the event of a grid failure or when shore/generator power is disconnected. 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 the input of the MultiPlus-II. Loads that should not discharge the battery, like a water heater for example, can be connected to this output. Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel (not for the 8k, 10k and 15k models) and three phase operation Up to 6 Multis can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Six 48/5000/70 units, for example, will provide 25 kW / 30 kVA output power with 420 Amps charging capacity. In addition to parallel connection, three units of the same model can be configured for three phase output. But that’s not all: up to 6 sets of three units can be parallel connected for a 75 kW / 90 kVA inverter and more than 1200 Amps charging capacity. On-site system configuring, monitoring and control Settings can be changed in a matter of minutes with VEConfigure software (computer or laptop and MK3-USB interface needed). Several monitoring and control options are available: Cerbo GX, Color Control GX, Venus GX, Octo GX, CANvu GX, laptop, computer, Bluetooth (with the optional VE.Bus Smart dongle), Battery Monitor, Digital Multi Control Panel. Remote configuring and monitoring Install a Cerbo GX or other GX product to connect to the internet.
