INFORMATION, DIMENSIONS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This Operational Manual is written by Newton Waterproofing Systems specifically for the use of the Victron
Inverter/Charger units used with Newton Pumping Systems to ensure continued pumping during power
outages. The original Victron installation manual may be used for reference but contains no specific information
on the use of the unit as a Newton Battery Backup System. It mentions uses that are not applicable to the
Newton System, therefore may be confusing when read in isolation.
DIMENSIONS
362 mm high x 258 mm wide x 218 mm deep.
Weight - 18kg.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
Please familiarise yourself with the safety features and instructions by first reading this document before using
the equipment. This product has been designed and tested in accordance with international standards. The
equipment must be used exclusively for the purpose for which it was designed.
WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
The product is used in conjunction with wall mains, a permanent energy source (battery). Input and/or output
terminals may still be dangerously energized, even when the equipment is switched off. ALWAYS SWITCH OFF
THE AC IN SUPPLY AND DISCONNECT FROM MAINS AND BATTERY WHEN INSTALLING, MAINTAINING OR
SERVICING THIS SYSTEM. The product has no internal user-serviceable components. Do not remove the front
plate or operate the product if any panels have been removed. All servicing must be undertaken by qualified
personnel.
Never use the product where there is a risk of gas or dust explosions. Consult the battery manufacturer's
information to ascertain that the product is intended for use in conjunction with the battery. Always comply with
the battery manufacturer's safety instructions.
WARNING: DO NOT LIFT HEAVY LOADS WITHOUT ASSISTANCE
INSTALLATION
Read these installation instructions in full before installing the equipment. This is a Safety Class I product
(supplied with a protective grounding terminal for safety purposes). Uninterrupted protective grounding must
be provided at the AC input and/or output terminals. Alternatively, the grounding point located externally on the
product may be used. Whenever it is likely that the grounding protection has been damaged, the product must
be turned off and secured against unintended operation; please contact qualified service staff.
Ensure that the connection cables are fused and fitted with circuit breakers. Never replace a safety component
with a different type.
Before applying power, ensure that the available power source matches the configuration settings of the
product. This manual is to be used with the Victron MultiPlus 12/3000/120. 12/xxxx/xxx denotes the charging
volts - use with 12V batteries only. xx/3000/xx denotes the AC output capacity in VA. xx/xxxx/120 denotes the
charging current in Ah.
Ensure that the equipment is used under the correct ambient conditions (refer to Data Sheet for unit
temperature operating parameters). Never operate the product in a wet or dusty environment. Ensure there is
adequate free space for ventilation around the product and check that the ventilation vents are not blocked.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
Ensure that the mains power and battery leads have been disconnected before storing or transporting the
product.
No liability can be accepted for any transport damage if the equipment is shipped in non-original packaging.
Store the product in a dry environment; the storage temperature must be between -20°C and 60°C.
Consult the battery manufacturer's manual in respect of transport, storage, charging, recharging and disposal of
the battery(s) and ancillary products.

This Operational Manual is for the Victron MultiPlus Inverter/Charger unit 12/3000/120. The maximum pump
size that can be connected to these units is 750W:
•
Newton CP750
•
Newton NP750
•
Newton SP750 Cutter
Pumps of 150, 250 & 400W can also be used with this unit but smaller MultiPlus Compact Inverter/Chargers are
available for less powerful pumps. For confirmation of the correct size of Inverter for the Newton pump being
used, please refer to the Victron Inverters Data Sheet.
TYPICAL DETAILS
Below is a typical setup as part of a Newton System 500 waterproofing system which can be used as a quick
install schematic. If a control panel is not used, the pumps will be automatic versions and each pump will have
just one cable coming up from the conduit. Connect pump 1 directly to the mains and pump 2 to the MultiPlus.
Example 1 - 2 x Automatic Pumps - No Pump Control Panel - No Inverter/Charger Control Panels
