Victron Energy IP22 Blue Smart Battery Charger

Avilable in 12v and 24v

-Bluetooth Smart

The Blue Smart IP22 Charger has built-in bluetooth connectivity through the free VictronConnect app for your convenience in wirelessly monitoring voltage and current as well as to allow easy settings changes and firmware updates when new features or functionalities are released.

-High efficiency

With up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to 4x less heat when compared to the industry standard. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0.5W, which is 5-10x better than the industry standard.

-Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk – absorption - recondition – float – storage

The Blue Smart IP22 Charger features a microprocessor-controlled ‘adaptive’ battery health management system. This 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 (Pb batteries)

The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In storage mode, float voltage is reduced to 2.2V/cell (13.2V for a 12V 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 helps prevent stratification of the electrolyte as well as sulfation, a major cause of early battery failure.

-Also charges LiFePO4 batteries

LiFePO4 batteries are charged with a simple bulk – absorption – float algorithm.

-Fully discharged battery recovery function

These chargers will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to 0V, which will permit them to reconnect to a fully discharged LiFePO4 battery after the BMS has shut it down, allowing you to "wake up" your drop-in LFP battery from a shutdown state.

-NIGHT and LOW settings

When in NIGHT or LOW mode, the output current is reduced to 50% or less of the nominal output and the charger will be totally silent. The NIGHT mode automatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.

-Protected against overheating

Output current will automatically derate as ambient temperature increases up to 122°F and the charger will automatically shut itself down at temperatures above 140°F to protect itself and the connected battery.

-Eleven LEDs for status indication:

Multistage intelligent charge algorithm - TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE / READY

MODE button: NORMAL (14.4V) / HIGH (14.7V) / RECONDITION / LI-ION

-Industry-leading warranty

Like all Victron Energy products (except for batteries), this charger is covered by a 5-year product warranty and fully supported by a global network of authorized Victron Energy dealers and distributors
