The Blue Smart IP22 Charger 24/12-1 is a professional-grade, efficient battery charger with built-in Bluetooth, designed for use across a range of applications, including workshops and motor vehicles such as classic cars, motorbikes, boats, and campervans. It offers advanced features to optimize battery charging, improve efficiency, and allow convenient monitoring and configuration via Bluetooth.
Key Features:
- Bluetooth Smart Connectivity: The Blue Smart IP22 Charger 24/12 (1) features wireless Bluetooth functionality, allowing users to monitor essential parameters such as voltage and current in real-time. Additionally, settings can be adjusted and the charger updated with new features as they become available, providing flexibility and ease of use.
- High Efficiency: With up to 94% efficiency, this charger generates significantly less heat compared to standard chargers, reducing heat build-up by up to four times. After the battery is fully charged, the power consumption drops to just a few watts, which is five to ten times more efficient than traditional chargers, minimizing energy wastage.
- Fully Programmable Charge Algorithm: The charger offers a fully programmable charging process via the Bluetooth app, enabling users to adjust absorption, float, and storage voltages. It also allows programming the recondition setting and temperature compensation value for more tailored charging. By enabling Expert Mode in the app, users can gain access to more detailed parameters and modify time limits and charging variables for even greater control over the charging process.
- Adaptive 6-Stage Charging Algorithm: The charger incorporates a microprocessor-controlled adaptive charging system that automatically adjusts based on the battery’s usage. The charging stages include test, bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage. This adaptability ensures that the charging process is optimized based on the specific needs of the battery, leading to improved efficiency and battery health.
- Li-ion Battery Charging: The Blue Smart IP22 Charger 24/12 (1) also supports Li-ion batteries, charging them with a simplified bulk, absorption, and float algorithm. This provides a safe and efficient method of charging for Li-ion battery types, offering added versatility for various applications.
- Fully Discharged Battery Recovery: The charger features a recovery function for fully discharged batteries, even those that have been drained to zero volts. It can initiate charging from a completely dead state and will resume normal charging once sufficient voltage is detected. Additionally, the charger can reconnect to Li-ion batteries that have an internal disconnect function, ensuring safe and effective charging.
- NIGHT and LOW Modes: The charger includes two special operating modes to reduce noise and power consumption. In NIGHT mode, the output current is reduced to a maximum of 50% of its nominal output, making the charger nearly silent. This mode automatically turns off after 8 hours. LOW mode also reduces output current and can be manually ended, offering quieter operation when needed without compromising battery care.
- Battery Sense Compatibility: For added accuracy and better performance, the Victron Energy Battery Sense accessory can be used. This device measures voltage directly at the battery terminals, preventing errors caused by voltage loss due to cable resistance. This ensures that the correct charge voltage is applied to the battery, providing better charging precision and longer battery life.
The Blue Smart IP22 Charger 24/12-1 is a highly versatile, energy-efficient charging solution suitable for both traditional lead-acid and Li-ion batteries. With its advanced charging capabilities, remote monitoring, and customizable settings, it’s designed to provide optimal charging performance for a wide range of battery-powered devices.
