Victron power switch Filax-2 230V 50Hz-240V 60Hz

Victron Filax 2

The Filax switch was developed for switching the power supply of sensitive devices such as computers, industrial control systems or modern audiovisual and entertainment equipment from a priority AC source to a second alternative source. A typical priority source is electricity. distribution network, generator or other source, e.g. local electricity connection at the port or at the campsite. A typical alternative source is a DC-AC inverter.

Due to the very high switching speed of less than 20ms, sensitive devices and equipment will continue to operate without interruption. Filax is not intended for uninterruptible power supply of large household appliances, such as washing machines or electric motors due to excessive inrush currents.

Switching from the priority to the alternative AC source occurs if the voltage of the priority source drops below 180 V, or the frequency of the priority source drops below 45 Hz (46 Hz), or vice versa above 60 Hz (68 Hz). Switching back to the priority source will take place in 30 seconds at the earliest, if the parameters return to acceptable values, which is a voltage of at least 188 V, a minimum frequency of 47 Hz (52 Hz) or 56 Hz (63 Hz). Values in brackets apply to a frequency of 60 Hz.

It is installed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Inputs must be protected against currents exceeding 16 A. If the total consumption of consumers is less than 850 W, they are removed from the Filax device by manual connections (jumpers).
