Specifications
Product Description
The Victron Blue Smart IP22 24/16 (1) is a professional 24 V, 16 A charger designed for those who require power, precision, and complete control in a single battery bank. Its high-efficiency electronics run an intelligent 6-stage algorithm that automatically adjusts voltage and current to each charging phase, caring for lead-acid batteries (AGM, GEL, and flooded) and LiFePO₄ with BMS. Integrated Bluetooth connectivity allows monitoring the process from the VictronConnect app, adjusting profiles, viewing history, and updating firmware. In addition, the VE.Smart network enables sharing voltage, temperature, and current data with Victron sensors to compensate for cable drop and actual terminal temperature, achieving extremely precise charging. The IP22-rated chassis and Night/Low mode ensure quiet and reliable operation in boats, campers, machinery, and 24 V solar panels.
Main Features
- 16 A at 24 V on a single output; adaptive 6-stage management (test, bulk, absorption, reconditioning, float, and storage).
- Integrated Bluetooth Smart for real-time control, session history, and updates from VictronConnect.
- VE.Smart network for temperature and voltage drop compensation using Smart Battery Sense, SmartShunt, or BMV-712 Smart.
- Recovery of deeply discharged batteries (attempts to start charging from 0 V) and reconditioning phase for lead-acid.
- Night/Low mode for silent operation and temporary current reduction when required.
- High efficiency (~93%) and ultra-low standby consumption (~0.5 W) to minimize losses and heat.
Advantages or Benefits
- Reduces charging times in medium-sized 24 V banks while keeping the battery within its optimal range.
- Extends service life by avoiding undercharging, overcharging, and stratification through fine management of each stage.
- Professional management from your mobile: chemistry profiles, alarms, history, and OTA updates.
- Advanced safety with protections against reverse polarity (fuse), short circuit, and overtemperature.
- Compact IP22 format, ideal for confined spaces in marine, campers, and 24 V PV systems.
Purpose or Applications
Recommended as a main or maintenance charger for 24 V banks in boats, motorhomes, special vehicles, UPS/backup, and small photovoltaic installations. Suitable for lead-acid (AGM, GEL, and flooded) and LiFePO₄ with BMS.
