Modelo: BlueSolar Light 12/24-5- Sku: VICTREG044
- Vendor: Victron
Specifications
Product Description
The Victron BlueSolar Light 12/24-5 5A is a compact and robust PWM charge controller for small solar systems operating at 12 V or 24 V. It automatically detects battery voltage, applies three-stage charging (bulk, absorption, and float), and offers specific functions for solar lighting thanks to its day/night control with integrated timer. Designed to provide maximum reliability with minimal self-consumption, it features complete protection and a two-digit, seven-segment display that simplifies adjustment and diagnostics.
Main Features
- 5 A nominal current for small 12/24 V systems.
- Three-stage battery charging with predefined voltages: absorption 14.2 V/28.4 V and float 13.8 V/27.6 V.
- Lighting control: day/night function with timer easily adjustable from the LED display.
- Automatic low voltage disconnect (LVD) at 11.2 V/22.4 V and manual reconnection at 12.6 V/25.2 V or automatic at 13.1 V/26.2 V.
- Protections: overload, output short circuit, reverse polarity (PV/battery), and overtemperature.
- Self-consumption < 10 mA, IP20 enclosure, common positive for easy integration.
Advantages or Benefits
- Longer service life for lead-acid batteries thanks to stage management and precise LVD.
- Quick installation: automatic 12/24 V detection and accessible terminals.
- Integrated lighting control without additional equipment, ideal for autonomous lighting.
- Low self-consumption maximizes available energy in low-power applications.
- Reliable Victron design for operation in demanding environments with humidity up to 95% without condensation.
Purpose or Applications
Recommended for solar lighting (gardens, pathways, signage), small systems in caravans or boats, light telecommunications, remote sensing, electric fences, and any 12/24 V application with low consumption and lighting control needs.
