Încărcător Blue Smart IP67 12/13 bază

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 immersed in water (second digit 7). It is also resistant to oil, shocks, and is 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 power consumption, making it more economical and more environmentally friendly than many standard chargers.

When the battery is fully charged, the power consumption of the Blue Smart IP67 12/13 (1) charger is extremely low, dropping to less than 0.5 watts. This standby consumption is significantly better than the industrial average, contributing to substantial 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 been discharged 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 raised to the absorption level to "equalize" the battery, preventing electrolyte stratification and sulfation, which are major causes of premature 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 disconnection 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:

Reverse polarity protection: An external ATO-type fuse protects against incorrect connections.Output short-circuit protection: 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 update the charger wirelessly via 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 charging status: fast blinking for bulk charging, slow blinking for absorption, solid for float charging, and off for storage mode. Green LED: Indicates that the charger is powered on.

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

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 adapts 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 extended range makes it versatile for various applications, from small service batteries to larger starter batteries.

The Blue Smart IP67 12/13 charger (1) provides a nominal output voltage of 12 V and a maximum charging current of 13 A. These specifications are ideal for efficient and fast 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 (float charge). 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 is crucial never to place it directly above the battery, as potentially corrosive gases emitted by the battery could damage the charger. Ensure the location allows for good air circulation.

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 cable (230 VAC) into a wall outlet.The charging cycle will then start automatically.Always unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before connecting or disconnecting the DC terminals.
