The Victron Blue Smart IP22 12/30(3) is a mains-powered battery charger built for professional and trade use. It delivers 30A of charge current to 12V battery banks across three simultaneous outputs, with Bluetooth connectivity for monitoring and configuration through the VictronConnect app. It suits workshops, vehicle fleets, marine installations and off-grid setups where reliable, programmable charging matters.

Key features of the victron blue smart charger

• Charge current, 30A shared across three independent outputs, letting up to three 12V batteries charge at once.
• Bluetooth connectivity, built-in Bluetooth for wireless monitoring and full configuration via VictronConnect on iOS and Android.
• Ingress protection, IP22 rated, suitable for engine rooms, garages and covered outdoor locations where moisture may be present.
• Battery compatibility, works with AGM, Gel, flooded lead-acid and lithium (LiFePO4) batteries when the correct preset is selected.
• Charging algorithm, adaptive seven-stage charging (bulk, absorption, float, storage, equalisation and recondition) to extend battery service life.
• Mains plug, fitted CEE 7/7 Schuko plug, compatible with standard European and UK (via adaptor) sockets.

Product overview

This three-output variant shares its 30A total output across connected batteries, which is practical where multiple batteries need maintaining from a single charger, such as vehicle fleets, boat engine rooms or workshop environments with limited cabling space.

VictronConnect removes the need for a separate display. Charge profiles, battery type, current limits and absorption time are all adjustable from a phone or tablet, and the charger logs historical data useful for diagnosing battery health. The IP22 rating allows mounting in locations exposed to dripping water or condensation, though it is not for direct rain exposure.

Adaptive absorption monitors how well a battery accepts charge and adjusts the absorption phase accordingly. A well-maintained battery shortens the phase automatically; a deeply discharged or sulphated battery gets an extended absorption phase to recover capacity where possible.

Applications

• Charging and maintaining multiple 12V batteries in workshops and fleet maintenance facilities.
• Marine engine rooms where three battery banks require simultaneous charging from shore power.
• Off-grid cabins and leisure vehicles with a mains hook-up, keeping multiple battery banks in condition.
• Long-term battery storage maintenance in seasonal vehicles, boats and caravans.

Installation notes

The charger connects to a standard 230V mains supply through its fitted CEE 7/7 Schuko plug. The mains circuit should be adequately rated and fused, and battery connections should use correctly rated cable with inline fusing on the positive lead. For lithium (LiFePO4) installations, confirm the correct charge profile in VictronConnect before use, as incorrect settings can damage lithium cells. The IP22 rating permits locations with dripping water but not direct spray or submersion. A qualified auto-electrician or marine electrician should handle fixed installations in a vehicle or vessel.
