Victron Energy Blue Smart IP65 24/8 polnilec 24V CEE 7/17

The Victron Energy Blue Smart IP65 Charger 24/8 provides an output voltage of 24V and a charging current of 8 amperes.

Yes, this charger has an IP65 rating. This means it is protected against splashing, dust, and chemicals, making it suitable for demanding environments.

The charger integrates a seven-stage adaptive charge algorithm, optimizing each recharge cycle to maximize battery lifespan and performance.

Yes, the Blue Smart IP65 charger can recover deeply discharged batteries, even those with a voltage as low as 0V. It applies a low initial current, then resumes normal charging once sufficient voltage is restored at the battery terminals.

No, this charger is designed for completely silent operation. It has no fan or moving parts, which reduces noise and thermal stress on the electronic components.

The charger delivers high energy efficiency, up to 95%. This means it generates up to four times less heat compared to standard chargers. Additionally, once the battery is fully charged, standby power consumption drops to less than 0.5 Watt.

You can monitor the charger and battery status, as well as configure all charge parameters, via Bluetooth Smart connectivity and the VictronConnect application. This app is available for smartphones, tablets, and laptops.

Yes, the charger is designed for cold-weather performance and can operate down to -30°C. It measures ambient temperature during the test phase and adjusts the charging voltage accordingly for lead-acid batteries, eliminating the need for special settings in cold or hot environments.

The low current mode allows charging smaller batteries with a reduced current. For this 24/8 model, the charging current drops to 3A in low current mode. This mode can be activated by pressing the MODE button for 3 seconds and remains active until deactivated in the same way.

Yes, this charger has an automatic power supply function (Power Supply Function).

Reconditioning mode is a function that can help partially reverse sulfation in lead-acid batteries that have been insufficiently charged or left discharged for days or weeks. It charges the battery with a low current up to a higher voltage. It should be applied occasionally for VRLA batteries with flat plates (gel and AGM) and can be used for flooded batteries to equalize cells and prevent acid stratification.

The normal absorption charge voltage for a 24V battery is 28.8 V. For the 'High' mode, it is 29.4 V, and for Li-ion batteries, it is 28.4 V.

The normal 'float' (float charge) voltage for a 24V battery is 27.6 V. For Li-ion batteries, it is 27.0 V.

The normal 'storage' charge voltage for a 24V battery is 26.4 V. For Li-ion batteries, it is 27.0 V.

This charger is compatible with a wide range of battery technologies, including Li-ion (LiFePO₄), AGM, gel, and flooded lead-acid batteries.

This charger is recommended for battery banks ranging from 30 Ah to 80 Ah.

Yes, the charger is compatible with Li-ion batteries (LiFePO₄). It uses a specific charging algorithm for these batteries and includes automatic reset of Li-ion low-voltage protection.

The charger comes with clamps and M8 eyelets for battery connection.

To connect the charger to a battery installed in a vehicle, follow these steps:

Position the AC and DC cables to minimize the risk of damage from the hood, door, or moving engine parts.Check the battery terminal polarity. The POSITIVE terminal (POS, P, +) is usually larger in diameter than the NEGATIVE terminal (NEG, N, –).If the negative pole is connected to the chassis (negative ground, as in most vehicles), connect the RED clamp (POSITIVE) of the charger to the battery’s POSITIVE (+) terminal. Connect the BLACK clamp (NEGATIVE) to the chassis or engine block, away from the battery (avoid the carburetor, fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts).If the positive pole is connected to the chassis (positive ground), connect the BLACK clamp (NEGATIVE) of the charger to the battery’s NEGATIVE (-) terminal. Connect the RED clamp (POSITIVE) to the chassis or engine block, away from the battery.Next, plug the AC cable into the power outlet.To disconnect the charger, first unplug the AC cable, then remove the clamp from the vehicle’s chassis, and finally remove the clamp from the battery terminal.

When using this charger, it is crucial to take several safety precautions:

Ensure the area around the battery is well-ventilated during charging, as batteries generate explosive gases.Wear full eye protection and protective clothing.NEVER smoke and NEVER allow sparks or flames near the battery or engine.Be extremely careful to avoid dropping a metal tool onto the battery, which could cause a spark or short circuit.NEVER charge a frozen battery.Connect and disconnect the DC output clamps only after removing the AC cord from the power outlet. Never allow the DC clamps to touch each other.
