BlueSmart IP67 Charger 12VDC - 13AMP
Features:
- Bluetooth Smart enabled The Blue Smart IP67 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available. With Bluetooth, the functionality of the IP67 charger is enhanced and is similar to that of our IP22 and IP65 chargers.
- Completely encapsulated: waterproof, shockproof and ignition protected Water, oil or dirt will not damage the Blue Smart IP67 Charger. The casing is made of cast aluminium and the electronics are moulded in resin.
- The highest efficiency ever! Setting a new industry standard: with 92% efficiency or better, these chargers waste three to four times less heat. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to less than a Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard.
- Adaptive 5-stage charge algorithm: bulk absorption recondition float storage The Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor controlled adaptive battery management. The adaptive feature will automatically optimise 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 2,2 V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimise 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 sulphation, a major cause of early battery failure.
- Also charges Li-ion (LiFePO4) batteries LiFePO4 batteries are charged with a simple bulk absorption float algorithm.
- Protected against overheating Can be used in a hot environment such as a machine room. Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 60C, but the charger will not fail.
- Two LEDs for status indication Yellow LED: bulk charge (blinking fast), absorption (blinking slow), float (solid), storage (off) Green LED: power on

The Victron Energy BlueSmart IP67 Charger model BPC121315106 is a robust, waterproof power solution designed for reliable 12V DC battery charging in challenging environments. Its fully encapsulated cast aluminum casing ensures protection against water, dirt, oil, and shock, making it ideal for outdoor or industrial use where durability is critical. The integrated Bluetooth Smart technology allows wireless monitoring of voltage and current, as well as remote adjustment of settings and firmware updates, enhancing operational control and convenience without the need for physical access to the charger.
The charger boasts industry-leading efficiency at 92% or higher, significantly reducing heat generation and power waste. When the battery reaches full charge, power consumption drops to less than one watt, far outperforming standard chargers in energy conservation. Its microprocessor-controlled adaptive five-stage charging algorithm optimizes battery health by adjusting the charging process based on actual usage, incorporating bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage modes. This approach extends battery life and minimizes maintenance needs.
In storage mode, when the battery remains discharged for over 24 hours, the charger reduces the float voltage to prevent gassing and corrosion, periodically elevating the voltage to maintain electrolyte balance and prevent stratification. The charger is compatible with lithium-ion (LiFePO4) batteries, applying a simple bulk, absorption, and float charge cycle suitable for these types of batteries. Its thermal protection ensures safe operation in hot environments; output current automatically reduces as temperatures rise up to 140°F (60°C), preventing failure in high-temperature conditions.
Two LEDs provide clear status updates: a yellow LED indicates charging stages—blinking fast during bulk, blinking slow during absorption, solid during float, and off during storage—while a green LED confirms power is on. This combination of features delivers a reliable, efficient, and versatile charging solution suitable for various applications, from marine to industrial equipment.
