Victron Blue Smart IP22 Charger

The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the new 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 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.

Fully programmable charge algorithm 
Absorption, Float and Storage voltages as well as the Recondition setting and the temperature compensation value can be programmed with the Bluetooth app.
After enabling the Expert mode, the app allows changing practically all parameters and time limits used by the charge algorithm.

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 for 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2 V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V 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, which are major causes 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.
