Blue Smart IP67 töltő 12/13 alap

The Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger has an IP67 protection rating. This means it is fully protected against dust (first digit 6) and can be temporarily submerged in water (second digit 7). It is also resistant to oil, shocks, and protected against ignition, making it ideal for demanding marine environments.

The enclosure of the Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger is made of die-cast aluminum, and its electronic components are fully encapsulated in resin. This robust design ensures maximum protection against water, oil, dust, and shocks, guaranteeing increased durability in harsh conditions.

This charger stands out with a high energy efficiency of 93%. This performance minimizes heat dissipation and reduces energy consumption, making it more economical and environmentally friendly than many standard chargers.

When the battery is fully charged, the power consumption of the Blue Smart IP67 12/13 charger (1) is extremely low, dropping to less than 0.5 watts. This low standby consumption is significantly better than the industrial average, contributing to significant energy savings.

The charger integrates a 5-stage adaptive charging algorithm, microprocessor-controlled, which automatically optimizes the charging process based on battery usage. These stages are:

Bulk (bulk charge): Constant current charge.
Absorption: Constant voltage charge to complete charging.
Recondition: Optional step to recondition deeply discharged batteries.
Float (float charge): Maintaining the battery at a float voltage.
Storage (storage): Reducing float voltage to minimize gassing and corrosion when the battery is not in use.

The storage mode activates when the battery has not undergone discharge for 24 hours. In this mode, the float voltage is reduced to 13.2 V (for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week, the voltage is brought back to the absorption level to "equalize" the battery, preventing electrolyte stratification and sulfation, which are major causes of early battery failure.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger can initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts. It can also reconnect a Li-ion battery with an internal disconnect function, which is a crucial feature for battery recovery.

The charger is protected against overheating and can be used in hot environments, such as an engine room. The output current will automatically decrease as the temperature rises above 40 °C, but the charger will continue to operate without failure up to 60 °C.

Yes, this charger is completely silent. It has no cooling fan or other moving parts, ensuring quiet operation, ideal for applications where noise must be minimized.

The Blue Smart IP67 12/13 charger (1) includes multiple protections to ensure safety and durability:

Polarity reversal protection: An external ATO fuse protects against incorrect connection.Short-circuit protection at output: Prevents damage in case of a short circuit.Overheat protection: Reduces output current to avoid damage from excessive temperature.

You can monitor voltage and current, adjust settings, and wirelessly update the charger using Bluetooth Smart. Simply use the VictronConnect app, available for Apple and Android smartphones and tablets, as well as Windows and macOS X PCs.

The charger is equipped with two LEDs to indicate its status:

Yellow LED: Indicates the charging state: fast blinking for bulk charge, slow blinking for absorption, steady for float, and off for storage mode.
Green LED: Indicates that the charger is powered on.

Yes, this charger can also be used as a power supply. This feature is useful for powering devices that require a stable 12V supply, even without a connected battery.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP67 12/13 charger (1) measures ambient temperature during the test phase and adjusts the charging voltage based on this temperature. The optimal charging voltage for lead-acid batteries varies inversely with temperature, and this compensation ensures optimal charging and extends battery life without requiring manual adjustments for cold or hot environments.

The Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger is compatible with a wide range of batteries, including lead-acid batteries (flooded, GEL, AGM) and Li-ion batteries. It adjusts its charging algorithm based on the selected battery type.

This charger is designed to charge and maintain batteries with capacities ranging from 14 Ah to 225 Ah. This wide range makes it versatile for various applications, from small service batteries to larger starter batteries.

The Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger provides a nominal output voltage of 12 V and a maximum charging current of 13 A. These specifications are ideal for efficient and rapid charging of 12 V batteries.

Yes, for Li-ion batteries, the charger uses a simplified three-stage charging algorithm: bulk (bulk charge), absorption, and float (maintenance). It is important to note that a Battery Management System (BMS) may be required to safely charge a Li-ion battery.

The charger must be installed in a well-ventilated area near the battery. However, it must never be placed directly above the battery, as potentially corrosive gases emitted by the battery could damage the charger. Ensure the location allows for good airflow.

To connect the charger:

Connect the ring terminals to the battery: the black cable (negative) to the battery’s negative terminal (-) and the red cable (positive) to the battery’s positive terminal (+). Plug the AC power cord (230 VAC) into a wall outlet. The charging cycle will then start automatically. Always unplug the AC cord from the power outlet before connecting or disconnecting the DC terminals.
