Hello everyone,
I have a Quattro 12/5000 on my boat. Everything works fine, except for the watermaker. It works on shore power but not on my 5000 watt generator. As soon as the high pressure pump switches on the Quattro disengages the transfer switch. Everything else like air-conditioning and electric stove works fine. I tried different settings in VeConfig according to the Victron document with no different result.
The watermaker is equipped with a 25amp start torque limiter. The generator is connected to AC-1 on the Quattro, the shore power to AC-2 via a Victron 3500 watt isolation transformer.
I recently replaced my Quattro that suffered from water damage. The watermaker worked on the old Quattro but not on the new.
Could it be that the transfer switch if the Quattro is faulty or is the watermaker to blame? Troubleshooting suggestions welcomed.
