What Inverter/Charger

Hi


I have three phase power and would like to supply backup power to 2 of the phases at my home. I have 12 x 12v batteries (12VRE-3000TF-M8 - Storage Tubular Flooded SOPzS) . Performance specs below. Ideally, I would like 4 batteries on the one phase (lights only) and 8 on the other (a few plugs). What configuration and inverter/charger do you suggest?


I have received a lot of contardictory 'expert' advice. The only agreement is that Victron products are expensive, but the best.


Will appreciate your assistance.


Thank you

Batteries will be common to both.

The inverters will run as one logical system.

Sounds like you need to find better advisors. Parallel and 3 phase system requirements are well documented. Just do a quick google and you will find the doc.

If you’re comparing cost to fong kong specials, then it would be more. You need to value the whole ecosystem and open architecture, then it is reasonable value.
