Blue Smart IP67 Charger 12/17 (1)

The Blue Smart IP67 12V/17A charger is an advanced device from Victron Energy that enables fast and efficient charging of 12V batteries with a charging current of 17A. Thanks to built-in Bluetooth technology, the charging process can be managed from a smartphone using the Victron Connect app. This modern tool is ideal for a variety of applications, such as motor vehicles, classic cars, motorcycles, and boats.

Remote management and control via application

The charger offers full remote management, allowing you to monitor and adjust charging parameters in real time. The Victron Connect app allows for easy setup, and Bluetooth ensures a reliable wireless connection.

Regeneration function for deeply discharged batteries

One of the charger's key features is its ability to recondition deeply discharged batteries. The charger uses a forced, low-current charge to gradually restore the battery to full capacity.

Intelligent charging and battery protection

The device uses a seven-stage charging algorithm that automatically adjusts the charging process based on the battery's condition. This means the charger maintains the battery in optimal condition, providing it with adequate power and extending its lifespan.

Efficiency and energy savings

The charger boasts a high energy efficiency of 95%, significantly reducing energy loss and minimizing heat generation. Once charging is complete, the device enters power saving mode, consuming less than 1 watt of energy.

Battery storage mode and maintenance

By lowering the float voltage, the storage mode significantly reduces the risk of corrosion and gassing of the battery plates, extending its lifespan. Once a week, the voltage is automatically increased to equalize the battery, preventing sulfation and electrolyte stratification.

Waterproof and durable construction

The charger's housing is designed for harsh environments. The fully enclosed, waterproof aluminum construction protects the device from water, dust, and oil. IP67 certification guarantees protection against spills and shocks, making the device ideal for outdoor use.

Compatibility with LiFePO4 batteries

The Blue Smart IP67 supports lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. Users can easily select the appropriate charging mode using the button on the housing, ensuring complete versatility and safety for use with various battery types.
