Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger 24/5(1) 230V CEE 7/7 | BPC240513006

The Victron Blue Smart IP67 24/5 is a single-output battery charger for 24V battery banks, powered from a 230V mains supply via a CEE 7/7 plug. Rated at 5A, it is built to IP67 standard, so it is fully dustproof and can withstand temporary immersion in water. It suits professional installers, marine and vehicle applications, and anywhere a charger needs to cope with a demanding environment.

Key features of the Victron Blue Smart charger

• IP67 enclosure, dustproof and protected against temporary water immersion up to 1 metre for 30 minutes.
• Bluetooth built in, monitor and configure the charger through the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android, no dongle needed.
• Battery compatibility, charges flooded, gel and AGM lead-acid batteries plus LiFePO4, using a multi-stage adaptive charging algorithm.
• Output, 5A on a single output channel, for 24V battery banks in smaller off-grid, marine and vehicle systems.
• Mains connection, CEE 7/7 (Schuko/French) plug for direct use in standard European 230V sockets.
• Storage and recondition modes, help maintain battery condition during long periods of inactivity.
• Weight, 1.8 kg, in a housing suited to fixed or portable use.

How the charging cycle works

The Blue Smart IP67 range runs through bulk, absorption, float and storage stages. The adaptive algorithm varies absorption time depending on how long the battery took to reach absorption voltage, so a battery that is topped up regularly isn't held at absorption as long as one that started deeply discharged.

Bluetooth monitoring

VictronConnect gives real-time charge status, lets you adjust charge voltages and current limits, select battery chemistry presets, and check charge history, all without a cable or interface box. Useful when the charger itself is mounted somewhere awkward to reach, such as a locker or engine bay.

Applications

Charging 24V banks on boats where moisture is a constant risk; maintaining 24V leisure batteries in campervans and motorhomes on shore power; off-grid cabins with a 24V system and mains or generator supply; 24V backup systems on industrial equipment in exposed enclosures; and seasonal maintenance of 24V systems left idle over winter.
