Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1)

The IP67 protection rating means the charger is fully waterproof, oil-resistant, and dustproof. Its die-cast aluminum housing and electronics fully encapsulated in resin make it shock-resistant and protected against ignition, making it ideal for marine and demanding environments.

The Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) has an efficiency rating of 96 %. This means it minimizes energy loss and produces three to four times less heat than conventional chargers.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) is completely silent. It has no cooling fan or any other moving parts.

Once the battery is fully charged, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) idle power consumption is less than 0.5 Watt.

The charger integrates a 5-stage adaptive charging algorithm controlled by a microprocessor:

Bulk (constant current): Initial charging phase.Absorption (finishing charge): Maintains a higher voltage to fully charge the battery.Reconditioning: Optional phase to restore heavily discharged or sulfated batteries.Float (trickle): Maintains the battery at a float voltage to compensate for self-discharge.Storage: Reduces float voltage to minimize gassing and corrosion when the battery is not in use.

This adaptive function automatically optimizes the charging process based on battery use, thereby extending its lifespan.

Storage mode activates when the battery has not undergone discharge for 24 hours. In this mode, the float voltage is reduced to 26.4 V (for a 24 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once per week, the voltage is raised to absorption level to "equalize" the battery, preventing electrolyte stratification and sulfation, which are major causes of premature battery failure.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) features a recovery function for fully discharged batteries. It can initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts and will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with an internal disconnect function.

Le chargeur est protégé contre la surchauffe et peut être utilisé dans des environnements chauds comme une salle des machines. Le courant de sortie se réduit à mesure que la température augmente au-delà de 40 °C (avec une réduction de 3 % par °C au-dessus de 40 °C), mais le chargeur ne tombera pas en panne. Il peut fonctionner jusqu'à 60 °C.

The Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) includes multiple protections:

Protection against battery polarity reversal (via a replaceable external fuse). Protection against output short circuits. Protection against overheating.

The charger is equipped with two LEDs for status indication:

The yellow LED indicates the charging cycle:
Fast blinking: bulk charge.
Slow blinking: absorption.
Solid: float charge.
Off: storage.
The green LED indicates that power is enabled.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) can be used as a power supply.

The Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) supports an AC input voltage range of 180 to 265 VAC at a frequency of 45 to 65 Hz. Its nominal voltage is 220-240 VAC 50-60 Hz.

Le chargeur Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) a des dimensions de 99 mm (hauteur) x 219 mm (largeur) x 65 mm (profondeur) et pèse 2,4 kg.

The Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) is designed to charge and maintain lead-acid batteries (including AGM, GEL, flooded) and Li-ion batteries.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/8(1) is compatible with Li-ion batteries. It uses a specific charging algorithm for these batteries (bulk, absorption, float). Note that a BMS (Battery Management System) may be required to charge a Li-ion battery.

For Li-ion batteries, the charging voltages are as follows:

Absorption voltage: 28.4 VFloat voltage: 27.0 VStorage voltage: 27.0 V

The charger must be installed in a well-ventilated area, close to the battery. It is important never to place it directly above the charging battery, as gases emitted by the battery could corrode and damage the charger.

Pour connecter le chargeur :

Connectez les bornes à œillet aux pôles de la batterie : le câble noir (négatif) au pôle négatif (–) de la batterie, et le câble rouge (positif) au pôle positif (+) de la batterie.Branchez le câble d'alimentation AC de 1,5 mètre (avec prise CEE 7/7) à une prise murale.Le cycle de charge démarrera alors. Assurez-vous de suivre les précautions de sécurité concernant la polarité et la ventilation.

The charger is equipped with Bluetooth Smart technology. You can monitor and control it remotely via the VictronConnect app, available for Apple and Android smartphones and tablets. The app allows you to view voltage, charging current, adjust settings, and update firmware.

The Victron Energy Blue Smart IP67 charger is designed to offer exceptional resistance in demanding environments, including marine applications. Its IP67 rating means it is fully encapsulated, making it completely waterproof against water, oil, and dust. Water, oil, or dirt will not damage it.

This robustness is ensured by specific construction features:

Its housing is made of die-cast aluminum.The electronic components are fully encapsulated in resin.These features provide high shock resistance and protection against ignition, making it perfectly suited to the harshest conditions.
