Victron battery charger IP22 12V
Victron battery charger IP22 12V
The Blue Smart Victron battery charger IP22 180-265VAC is equipped with silent cooling. No fan, no noise. The battery charger is also protected against overheating: the output current decreases as the temperature rises to 60ºC, but the Blue Smart charger does not shut down.
Features of the Victron battery charger IP22
Adaptive 4-stage charging characteristic
Bulk - Absorption - Float - Storage
Microprocessor
The Blue Smart charger is equipped with a microprocessor-controlled 'adaptive' battery management system. The 'adaptive' function automatically adapts the charging process to the use of the battery.
Smart functionality
The IP22 charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, change settings, and update the charger when new features become available.
Optional choice
Three outputs: now available in both 12 and 24 Volt versions, the Blue smart Charger is available with three outputs.

Bluetooth Smart
The Blue Smart IP22 battery charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, change settings, and update the battery charger when new features become available.
Extremely efficient
With an efficiency of up to 94%, these battery chargers generate four times less heat compared to the industry standard.
And as soon as the battery is fully charged, power consumption drops to 0.5 watts, which is five to ten times better than the
industry standard
Adaptive 6-stage charging algorithm: test - bulk charging – absorption charging - conditioning – trickle charging – storage
The Blue Smart charger is equipped with microprocessor-controlled 'adaptive' battery management. The adaptive function automatically optimizes the charging process depending on how the battery is used.
Storage mode: less maintenance and deterioration when the battery is not in use
The storage mode is activated if the battery is not discharged for 24 hours. In that case, the float voltage is reduced to 2.2V/cell (13.2V for a 12V battery) to minimize gas formation and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week, the voltage is increased again to absorption level to 'top up' the battery.
This prevents electrolyte stratification and sulfation, the main cause of premature battery failure.
Also charges lithium-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries
LiFePO₄ batteries are charged using a simple algorithm of bulk charging – absorption charging – trickle charging.
NIGHT and LOW setting
In NIGHT (night) or LOW (low current) mode, the output current is reduced to max. 50% of the nominal output current and the battery charger becomes completely silent. The NIGHT mode ends automatically after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.
Protected against overheating
The output current decreases as the temperature rises to 50ºC, but the Blue Smart charger does not shut down.
