Victron Blue Smart IP65 Charger 12/7 + DC Connector 120VAC
The Victron Energy BPC120731104R is an ultra-efficient battery charger designed to ensure optimal battery performance while being environmentally friendly. With its advanced features, this charger supports a variety of battery types and offers functionalities that maximize usability and safety, making it an essential tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Product Features
Ultra High Efficiency
The Victron Energy BPC120731104R boasts an impressive efficiency rating of up to 95%. This means it generates significantly less heat compared to conventional chargers, enhancing its longevity and reliability while reducing electricity consumption, making it an excellent choice for eco-conscious users.
Temperature Compensated Charging
This charger automatically adjusts its charging voltage based on the surrounding temperature. By measuring ambient conditions, it ensures that the lead-acid batteries receive the optimal charge, preventing damage that can occur due to extreme temperatures.
Reconditioning Mode
The reconditioning feature can partially reverse sulfation in lead-acid batteries that have been left discharged. By applying low current at a higher voltage, users can restore battery capacity and extend the overall lifespan of their batteries.
Durable and Safe Design
Constructed to withstand challenging environments, the Victron Blue Smart Charger features protection against dust, water, and chemical ingress. Its design also includes safeguards against overheating, ensuring safe operation even under high-stress conditions.
Bluetooth Connectivity
With integration of the VictronConnect app, users can monitor and control their charger easily via Bluetooth. This feature allows for real-time status updates on charging performance and battery health right from a smartphone, enhancing user convenience.
How It Works
The Blue Smart IP65 Charger operates through advanced algorithms that control the charging process distinctly for each battery type. Each stage of the charging cycle€”bulk, absorption, and float€”is automatically managed to secure optimal battery condition and performance.
Charging Stages
The charger goes through several stages: it quickly charges the battery with maximum current until the absorption voltage is reached, then continues charging at a constant voltage until fully charged, and finally maintains the battery at float voltage to keep it healthy.
Recovery Functionality
This unique functionality allows the charger to attempt to recharge batteries that have dropped to extremely low voltages, a feature not provided by many competitors. It employs low current to slowly build the battery voltage back to a normal level.
Low Current Mode
For applications requiring gentler charging, users can switch to low current mode. This is ideal for maintaining battery health during prolonged connection scenarios, minimizing the risk of overheating and overcharging.
