Charging & Battery Modes
The Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger employs an advanced adaptive 5-stage charging algorithm to ensure optimal battery health and performance. This intelligent system automatically adjusts to how the battery is being used.
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Bulk | Charges the battery at maximum current until voltage reaches the absorption level. |
| Absorption | Charges at a constant voltage, with current slowly decreasing as the battery nears full charge. |
| Recondition | An optional stage to recover deeply discharged batteries (not for Li-ion). |
| Float | Maintains the battery at a constant voltage to prevent discharge after full charge. |
| Storage | Reduces float voltage to minimise gassing and corrosion during periods of inactivity, with a weekly refresh cycle. |
The charger also supports Li-ion (LiFePO4) batteries with a dedicated Bulk – Absorption – Float algorithm.
Typical Applications
| Application | Description |
|---|---|
| Marine & Boating | Ideal for charging leisure batteries on boats, yachts, and other marine vessels due to its waterproof design. |
| Campervans & Motorhomes | Ensures reliable charging of auxiliary batteries in recreational vehicles, even in damp conditions. |
| Off-Grid & Remote Systems | Suitable for battery maintenance in remote cabins, sheds, or solar installations where environmental protection is crucial. |
| Seasonal Vehicles & Equipment | Perfect for maintaining batteries in classic cars, motorcycles, or garden machinery during periods of storage. |
Built-In Protection Functions
The Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger incorporates essential safety features to protect both the charger and your battery system: Reverse Polarity Protection • Output Short Circuit Protection • Over-temperature Protection. Its fully encapsulated design also provides ignition protection, enhancing safety in environments with flammable vapours.
Common Questions
What does the IP67 rating mean?
IP67 signifies that the charger is completely dust-tight (the '6') and protected against the effects of temporary immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes (the '7'). This makes it highly resistant to harsh environmental conditions.
How does the Bluetooth Smart feature work?
The built-in Bluetooth module allows you to connect wirelessly to the charger using the free VictronConnect app on your smartphone, tablet, or computer. From the app, you can monitor real-time voltage and current, view historical data, change charging settings, and update the charger's firmware.
Can this charger be left connected to a battery indefinitely?
Yes, the Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger is designed for long-term connection. Its adaptive 5-stage algorithm includes 'Float' and 'Storage' modes, which maintain the battery at an optimal level without overcharging, reducing gassing and corrosion for extended battery life.
What battery types are compatible with this charger?
This charger is compatible with a wide range of 12V battery types, including flooded lead-acid, GEL, AGM, and LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries. It features specific charging algorithms for each type to ensure safe and efficient charging.
Installation Notes
- The Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger is designed for permanent mounting using the tabs on its base.
- Ensure the charger is installed in a location with adequate natural airflow, even though it is passively cooled. Avoid installing directly above batteries or in sealed compartments with batteries.
- Mount the charger vertically with the DC power cable and AC supply cable facing downwards to ensure optimal performance and drainage.
- Connect the hardwired DC power cabling to your battery or DC system distribution bus, ensuring correct polarity.
- Always ensure the AC power cable is connected to an earthed mains power outlet.
- For safety and optimal performance, professional installation by a qualified electrician or solar installer is recommended.
Before You Buy
- Verify Battery Voltage: This charger is specifically for 12V battery systems. Ensure your battery bank matches this voltage.
- Check Battery Type: Confirm your battery type (e.g., Lead-Acid, GEL, AGM, LiFePO4) to ensure compatibility with the charger's algorithms.
- Consider Environment: While IP67 rated, assess the specific environmental conditions for installation to ensure it meets your needs.
- Consult Battery Manufacturer: Always refer to your battery manufacturer's recommendations for charging parameters and capacity.
