Victron Energy Blue Smart IP22 12V DC 20A 3 Bank Charger - Dry Mount

Blue Smart IP22 12VDC 20A 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 professional-grade battery charger designed for versatile applications including workshops, classic cars, motorbikes, boats, and camper-vans. Featuring a built-in Bluetooth module, this charger allows wireless monitoring of voltage and current, as well as remote setting adjustments and firmware updates through a compatible app. Its advanced technology provides a reliable and efficient charging solution for a wide range of 12V batteries, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
The charger boasts a high efficiency of up to 94%, which significantly reduces heat generation during operation and minimizes power consumption when the battery is fully charged. Once the battery reaches full capacity, power draw drops to just 0.5 watt, making it one of the most energy-efficient chargers available. Equipped with an adaptive six-stage charging algorithm—comprising test, bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage modes—it intelligently manages the charging process based on the battery's condition and usage patterns. This microprocessor-controlled system helps extend battery life by preventing overcharging and maintaining optimal health.
The Blue Smart IP22 Charger also features a storage mode that reduces maintenance needs and delays battery aging during periods of inactivity exceeding 24 hours. In this mode, the float voltage is lowered to prevent gassing and corrosion. The charger periodically raises the voltage to recondition the battery, preventing electrolyte stratification and sulfation, which are common causes of early battery failure. Additionally, it is capable of charging lithium-ion batteries using a simplified bulk, absorption, and float algorithm, making it suitable for modern battery types.
Designed with user convenience in mind, the charger offers NIGHT and LOW modes, which reduce output current to minimize noise and heat—ideal for sensitive environments or overnight charging. The NIGHT mode automatically terminates after 8 hours, while LOW mode can be manually ended. Built-in protections against overheating ensure the charger reduces current if temperatures exceed 50°C, preventing damage and maintaining reliable operation. Eleven LEDs provide clear status indications, displaying charging stages such as test, bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage, along with mode settings including normal, high, recondition, and Li-ion. This comprehensive feature set makes the Victron Energy Blue Smart IP22 Charger a versatile and dependable solution for maintaining and charging a variety of 12V batteries across multiple applications.
