Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger 12V 120VAC NEMA 5-15-17A

The Blue Smart IP67 Waterproof Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. The Blue Smart IP67 Waterproof Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as (classic) cars; motorbikes; boats and camper-vans.

Features

• The battery is charged, smartly to perfect condition - The seven-step charging algorithm gets the best out of your battery. The charger gives the battery the power it needs, maintains its health, ensures better performance and a longer life
• Recovery of deeply-discharged 'dead' batteries - Unlike other brands, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger Waterproof will attempt to recharge a deeply-discharged battery by force-feeding it with a low current. Normal charging will then be resumed as soon as there is sufficient voltage across the battery terminals
• Check the status of your battery remotely - Blue Smart IP67 Charger Waterproof is equipped with built-in Bluetooth, so the status of the charger and the battery can be checked on a smartphone, tablet or laptop
• All settings of the charger can be configured with the VictronConnect app
• Bluetooth Smart enabled - The Blue Smart IP67 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available
• Completely encapsulated: waterproof, shockproof and ignition protected - Water, oil or dirt will not damage the Blue Smart IP67 Charger. The casing is made of cast aluminum and the electronics are molded in resin
• The highest efficiency ever - Setting a new industry standard: with 92% efficiency or better, these chargers waste three to four times less heat
• And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to less than a Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard
• Adaptive 5-stage charge algorithm: bulk - absorption - recondition - float - storage - The Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor controlled 'adaptive' battery management. The 'adaptive' feature will automatically optimize the charging process relative to the way the battery is being used
• Storage Mode: Less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in use - The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours
• In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2 V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates
• Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to 'equalize' the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulphation, a major cause of early battery failure
• Also charges Li-ion batteries - Li-ion batteries are charged with a simple bulk - absorption - float algorithm
• Fully discharged battery recovery function - Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts
• Protected against overheating - Can be used in a hot environment such as a machine room. Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 60 deg C, but the charger will not fail
