- Vendor: Victron
Specifications
Product Description
The Victron Skylla IP65 12V 70A Charger (3 outputs) combines high power with maximum robustness for marine and industrial applications. Its epoxy-coated steel housing and IP65 rating protect the coated electronics against salt and humidity. It provides three fully isolated outputs (up to 70 A total), an LCD screen for configuration/diagnostics, and VE.Can communication for NMEA2000 integration, Skylla-i Control panel, and synchronized parallel operation. The adaptive 7-stage algorithm adjusts absorption times according to depth of discharge, includes a BatterySafe mode to prevent gassing, and a Storage mode that reduces voltage when there is no load, preventing sulfation and stratification.
Main Features
- 70 A at 12 V with 3 fully isolated outputs (70 A total shared).
- Input 90–265 VAC, 45–65 Hz, power factor ≈0.98; suitable for unstable grids and generators.
- 7-stage algorithm with BatterySafe and Storage mode; typical voltages: absorption ≈14.4 V; float ≈13.8 V; storage ≈13.2 V.
- Temperature sensor and voltage probe to compensate wiring and extend battery life.
- VE.Can (NMEA2000), remote On/Off, and possibility to parallel multiple chargers.
- Forced cooling, DPST alarm relay, and use as a stabilized power supply.
Advantages or Benefits
- Simultaneous charging of up to three banks (service, starter, and auxiliary) without external splitters.
- Reduced battery aging thanks to precise voltages, thermal compensation, and intelligent maintenance.
- Local (LCD) or remote monitoring and control via CAN-bus network; easy integration into NMEA2000 systems.
- True resistance in harsh environments, with protected electronics and IP65 sealing.
- Scalable: several Skylla IP65 units can be synchronized to increase power or redundancy.
Purpose or Applications
Designed for yachts, sailboats, charter vessels, and special vehicles that require maintaining three 12 V banks with maximum control and reliability. Also suitable for stationary power panels and telecom.
