Detailed description

The Mastervolt Mass 24/50-2 battery charger is designed for the most demanding marine and mobile environments. Delivering a 50A charging current at 24V, this model features a three-stage automatic charging process (3-step+) that ensures fast and secure recharging of your battery banks. Unlike the ChargeMaster range, which is more suited to standard recreational installations, the Mass series is built for intensive and professional use, offering superior robustness with its C2-type housing and IP23 protection rating.

Performance and system integration

This charger has two outputs: a 50A main output for the service battery bank and a 3A secondary output dedicated to maintaining the starter battery. It is fully compatible with the MasterBus network, enabling centralized configuration, monitoring, and control from a compatible display. Supplied with a 6-meter temperature probe for thermal compensation, it ensures optimal battery life for lead-acid, gel, AGM, or lithium-ion batteries. Installation requires vertical mounting in a ventilated space, with secure connections in a dedicated compartment accessible only to qualified installers.

Reliability and safety

Built with industrial-grade components, the Mass 24/50-2 charger weighs 4.6 kg and operates on a 230V AC power supply (50-60Hz). It includes advanced protections against short circuits, polarity reversal, and overheating, with automatic power reduction above 40°C ambient to protect internal electronics. Compared to equivalent competitors such as Victron Energy’s Centaur series, Mastervolt’s Mass model stands out for its native MasterBus connectivity and its ability to maintain high-precision charging even during significant fluctuations in the electrical grid or generator output.

Expert opinion

Pol CONIN

Digital Manager

« The industrial standard for 24V charging in marine environments »

The Mastervolt Mass 24/50-2 charger is a true benchmark for embedded electrical installations requiring industrial-grade reliability. In real-world use, its rugged housing and power electronics enable it to withstand the most demanding engine-room environments, though it must be installed to avoid direct spray (IP23). The 3-step+ algorithmic charge management, paired with the supplied temperature probe, ensures a perfect charging curve—critical for preserving large-capacity battery banks. Native integration with the MasterBus network simplifies configuration and monitoring of the entire energy system. The inclusion of a secondary 3A output is a strategic advantage, allowing the engine-start battery to be maintained without requiring an additional distribution module.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Mastervolt Mass 24/50-2 charger?

The Mastervolt Mass 24/50-2 is a professional battery charger designed for the most demanding marine and mobile environments. It delivers a charging current of 50A at 24V and uses a three-stage automatic charging process to ensure fast and safe recharging of your battery banks.

How many outputs does this charger have?

This model has two separate outputs:

A main 50A output dedicated to charging the service battery bank.A 3A secondary output specifically for maintaining the starter battery.

Which battery types are compatible with this charger?

The Mass 24/50-2 charger is highly versatile. It is fully compatible with the following battery technologies:

Flooded lead-acidGelAGMLithium-ion

What is the protection rating of this model?

This charger has an IP23 protection rating. This means it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm and against rainwater at angles up to 60° from vertical, making it suitable for indoor mounting in a marine environment.

How should the Mass 24/50-2 charger be installed?

Installation must meet several criteria for optimal operation:

It must be mounted vertically, with the connection cables facing downward.The space must be well-ventilated and protected from excessive moisture.It must never be installed directly above batteries to avoid corrosive gas emissions.

Is the charger supplied with a temperature sensor?

Yes, the charger is supplied as standard with a temperature sensor featuring a 6-metre cable. This sensor automatically adjusts the charging voltage based on the battery temperature, optimising its service life.

Is this charger compatible with the MasterBus network?

Yes, it is fully compatible with the MasterBus communication network. This allows you to configure, monitor, and control the charger centrally from a compatible display. A MasterBus terminator is also included in the box.

What is the required supply voltage for the device to operate?

The charger operates on a standard 230V AC power supply, with a frequency between 50 and 60 Hz.

What happens if the ambient temperature in the bilge is very high?

The charger includes advanced thermal protection. If the ambient temperature exceeds 40°C, the device automatically reduces its charging power (derating) to protect its internal electronic components and prevent overheating.

Can the charger be installed in the same compartment as the batteries?

No, it is strongly discouraged to install the charger in the same enclosed compartment as the batteries. Lead-acid batteries generate potentially explosive and corrosive gases during charging, which could damage the charger's electronics.

What is the weight of this Mastervolt charger?

The charger alone has a net weight of 4.6 kg. With its full packaging, the total weight is approximately 6.8 kg.

How much free space must be left around the device when installing it?

To ensure sufficient airflow and proper cooling, it is essential to leave at least 10 cm of free space all around the charger.

How to check which charging phase the device is in?

The front panel of the charger is equipped with LED indicators. These lights allow you to monitor in real time the device's operating status and the current phase of the charging process (Bulk, Absorption, Float).

What is the 3-step+ charging process?

The 3-step+ process is an automatic charging algorithm developed by Mastervolt. It comprises three main phases:

Bulk: Fast charge at maximum current.Absorption: Full charge at constant voltage.Float: Maintenance voltage to keep the battery at 100% without damage.

Who should install this charger?

The charger is designed for permanent connection to AC and DC electrical systems. Its installation and wiring must be carried out by a qualified technician or electrician, in compliance with local regulations.

Is the charger noisy during operation?

The charger uses an active ventilation system to cool its internal components. The fan may produce a slight noise when operating at full power, but its speed automatically adjusts to the cooling needs of the device.

Is an earth ground required for this charger?

Yes, it is mandatory for safety reasons. The charger must be connected to an earth ground conductor via the dedicated terminal on the AC input to prevent any risk of electric shock.
