Blue Smart 12V 15A AC-DC Battery Charger NEMA
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. The Blue Smart IP65 Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as (classic) cars, motorbikes, boats, and camper-vans.
Ultra High Efficiency “Green” Battery Charger
With up to 95% efficiency, the Blue Smart IP65 Charger generates up to four times less heat compared to the industry standard. Once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0.5 Watt, which is five to ten times better than the industry standard. This efficiency makes it an eco-friendly choice for battery charging.
Durable, Safe, and Silent
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger is built to last, with low thermal stress on electronic components. It is protected against the ingress of dust, water, and chemicals, making it highly durable. Additionally, it features protection against overheating, where the output current will reduce as the temperature increases up to 60°C, but the charger will not fail. The charger operates silently without a cooling fan or any other moving parts.
Silent Operation and Protection
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger’s silent operation is ideal for environments where noise is a concern. Its fan-less design eliminates noise while ensuring maximum reliability and protection against dust and moisture.
Reconditioning and Recovery Functions
A lead-acid battery that has been insufficiently charged or left discharged for days or weeks will deteriorate due to sulfation. The Blue Smart IP65 Charger can partially reverse sulfation by charging the battery with low current up to a higher voltage. Additionally, the charger has a recovery function for fully discharged batteries. It attempts to recharge a fully discharged battery with low current and resumes normal charging once sufficient voltage has developed across the battery terminals.
VictronConnect App Integration
Setup, readout, and configure your Blue Smart IP65 Charger via your smartphone using the VictronConnect app. You can display the status of your charger and battery and control the charger’s functions using the app. Download the app for iOS and Android here.
Advanced Features
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger includes several advanced features to protect and enhance battery life. Storage mode reduces corrosion of the positive plates by lowering the float charge voltage after the absorption period. Temperature-compensated charging adjusts the charge voltage based on ambient temperature, ensuring optimal charging in various environments. The charger also has a specific charging algorithm for Li-ion batteries, with automatic Li-ion under voltage protection reset.
Advanced Charging Modes
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger features advanced charging modes, including reconditioning mode, which is designed to restore deeply discharged batteries. The charger’s adaptive charging algorithm ensures optimal charging for different battery types and conditions.
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger is the ultimate charging solution for various applications, providing unmatched efficiency, durability, and advanced features to keep your batteries in optimal condition.
