Victron Battery Charger Blue Smart IP22 12/20(1) 230V CEE 7/7

Bluetooth Smart IP22The wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and toupdate the charger when new features become available.High efficiencyWith up to 94 % efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heatwhen compared to the industry standard. And once the battery is fully charged,power consumption reduces to 0,5 Watt, some five to ten times better than theindustry standard.Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk absorption - recondition float storageThe Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor controlled 'adaptive' batterymanagement. The adaptive feature will automatically optimize the chargingprocess relative to the way the battery is being used.Fully programmable charge algorithmAbsorption, Float and Storage voltages as well as the Recondition setting andthe temperature compensation value can be programmed with the Bluetooth app.After enabling the Expert mode, the app allows changing practically allparameters and time limits used by the charge algorithm.Storage Mode: less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in useThe storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected todischarge for 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of thepositive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption levelto 'equalize' the battery. This feature prevents stratification of theelectrolyte and sulfation, which are major causes of early battery failure.Also charges Li-ion batteriesLi-ion batteries are charged with a simple bulk absorption float algorithm.Fully discharged battery recovery functionWill initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts.Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with internal disconnectfunction.NIGHT and LOW settingWhen in NIGHT or LOW mode, the output current is reduced to max. 50 % of thenominal output and the charger will be totally noiseless. The NIGHT modeautomatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.Protected against overheatingOutput current will reduce as temperature increases up to 50 °C, but the BlueSmart Charger will not fail.Eleven LEDs for status indicationCharge algorithm: TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE /READY.MODE button to set: NORMAL (14,4 V) / HIGH (14,7 V) / RECONDITION / LI-ION.Forty cycle history logThe history screen contains historical usage data over the charger's lifetimeand detailed statistics for the last 40 charge cycles.VE.Smart NetworkingThe VE.Smart Network is a wireless device to device (D2D) communication networkbetween Victron products, using Bluetooth Smart.Optional battery voltage and temperature compensation, and current sensingThe VE.Smart Network opens the possibility to optimize the charge process: aSmart Battery Sense, Smart Battery Monitor or a SmartShunt can be used tocommunicate battery voltage and temperature to one or more battery chargers. ASmart Battery Monitor or SmartShunt will also communicate battery current.Synchronized parallel chargingSynchronize up to ten battery chargersin a VE.Smart network to make them chargea battery as if they were one large charger. The chargers will synchronize thecharge algorithm between them. They will simultaneously switch from one chargestate to another, for example from bulk to absorption.Synchronized parallel charging has several interesting advantages:- Redundancy: if one charger stops for whatever reason, the other chargers willcontinue to operate.- Flexibility: simply add a charger to the network if more current is needed.- Cost: several low power chargers will in general cost less than one high powercharger.- Installation: several low power chargers may be easier to fit in a confinedspace.NOTE: DC Battery Cables not included. Features- Builtin Bluetooth- High efficiency- Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk - absorption - recondition -float - storage- Storage Mode: less maintenance and ageing when the battery is not in use- Also charges Li-ion (LiFePO?) batteries- NIGHT and LOW setting- Protected against overheating- Eleven LEDs for status indicationSpecifications- Input voltage range: 180 265 VAC- Charge current, normal mode: 20 A- Charge current, NIGHT or LOW: 10 A- Efficiency: 93%- No-load power consumption: 0.5 W- Frequency: 45 65 Hz- Number of outputs: 1- Charge algorithm: 6-stage adaptive- Can be used as power supply: Yes- Protection: Battery reverse polarity (fuse), Output short circuit, Overtemperature- Protection category: IP22 What's in the box * 1 x Blue Smart IP22 Charger 12/20(1) 230 CEE 7/7 * 1 x User Manual
