Victron Energy Blue Smart IP22 12VDC 15A 3 Bank Charger - Dry Mount with Bluetooth

Blue Smart IP22 12VDC 15A 3 Bank 120V Charger - Dry Mount

The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the professional battery charger with built-in bluetooth. The Blue Smart IP22 Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as (classic) cars; motorbikes; boats and camper-vans.

Bluetooth Smart

The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available.

High efficiency

With up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heat when compared to the industry standard. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0,5 Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard.

Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk absorption - recondition float storage

The Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor-controlled adaptive battery management. The adaptive feature will automatically optimize the charging process relative to the way the battery is being used.

Storage Mode: less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in use

The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2V/cell (13,2V for a 12V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to equalize the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulfation, a major cause of early battery failure.

Also charges Li-ion batteries

Li-ion batteries are charged with a simple bulk absorption float algorithm.

Fully discharged battery recovery function

Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts. Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with internal disconnect function.

NIGHT and LOW setting

When in NIGHT or LOW mode, the output current is reduced to max. 50% of the nominal output and the charger will be totally noiseless. The NIGHT mode automatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.

Protected against overheating

Output current will reduce as the temperature increases up to 50C, but the Blue Smart Charger will not fail.

Eleven LEDs for status indication

Charge algorithm: TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE / READY. MODE button to set: NORMAL (14,4V) / HIGH (14,7V) / RECONDITION / LI-ION.

The Victron Energy Blue Smart IP22 Charger is a versatile and efficient battery charger designed for use in workshops, vehicles, and marine applications. With a built-in Bluetooth interface, it allows convenient wireless monitoring and control of voltage, current, and settings via a smartphone or compatible device. This feature enhances user convenience by enabling remote adjustments and software updates without physical access to the charger. The charger supports a wide range of batteries, including lead-acid and lithium-ion types, making it suitable for classic cars, motorcycles, boats, and camper-vans.
Its high efficiency of up to 94% ensures minimal heat generation, which reduces thermal stress and extends the life of both the charger and the batteries. When the battery reaches full charge, power consumption drops to just 0.5 watts, significantly lowering energy costs and environmental impact. The charger's microprocessor-controlled adaptive six-stage charging algorithm—comprising test, bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage modes—optimizes charge cycles based on the battery’s condition and usage pattern. This intelligent management helps prevent overcharging, sulfation, and stratification, thereby enhancing battery longevity.
In storage mode, the charger reduces float voltage to minimize gassing and corrosion when the battery has been idle for over 24 hours. It periodically recharges the battery to the absorption level to maintain health and prevent aging. The charger also features a recovery function that can revive fully discharged batteries, including lithium-ion types, even if they have been discharged to zero volts. Additional modes, such as NIGHT and LOW, allow reduced current output—max 50%—which makes it suitable for overnight or low-noise operation, with NIGHT mode automatically ending after 8 hours and LOW mode ending manually.
The Victron Blue Smart IP22 Charger includes eleven LEDs for real-time status indication, covering stages such as test, bulk, absorption, recondition, float, storage, and ready. The mode button allows users to select between normal, high, recondition, or lithium-ion charging profiles. Protected against overheating, the charger adjusts its output current to prevent failure under high temperatures. Its durable design, intended for dry mounting, ensures reliable operation in various environments.
