Victron Blue Smart IP22 Charger 12/20(3) 230V CEE 7/7 | BPC122044002

The Victron Blue Smart IP22 12/20(3) is a mains-powered battery charger that delivers 20A across three separate outputs on a 12V system. It suits installers and anyone running more than one battery bank from a single charger, whether on a boat, a vehicle or an off-grid setup. Bluetooth is built in, so the whole unit can be monitored and configured without any extra hardware.

Key features of the Victron Blue Smart charger

• Charge current, 20A across a 12V system, split between three independent outputs so up to three battery banks charge at once.
• Bluetooth built in, full control and monitoring through the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android, no dongle needed.
• Ingress protection, IP22 rated, suitable for sheltered outdoor locations, engine bays and marine environments where moisture is present.
• Charge algorithm, adaptive seven-stage cycle covering bulk, absorption, float, storage, equalisation and recondition.
• Battery compatibility, GEL, AGM, AGM Spiral, EFB and conventional flooded lead-acid, plus LiFePO4.
• Mains connection, CEE 7/7 Schuko plug fitted as standard, for European and UK Schuko sockets.

Storage and temperature management

Storage mode drops the float voltage after 24 hours to reduce battery degradation on units left charging long-term. An optional external temperature sensor allows temperature-compensated charging where fitted.

Applications

Marine installations with separate starter, service and bow thruster batteries. Motorhomes and campervans running multiple battery systems from shore power. Off-grid cabins needing mains-fed battery maintenance, commercial vehicle fleets charged overnight, and workshops keeping several lead-acid or LiFePO4 batteries on long-term maintenance charge.

What's in the box

• Victron Blue Smart IP22 12/20(3) charger with CEE 7/7 mains plug
• DC output cables with ring terminals

Installation notes

Connect to a 230V AC mains supply via the fitted CEE 7/7 plug, on a circuit rated and protected appropriately. Wire DC connections to the battery terminals with correct polarity and fusing on each output. For LiFePO4 batteries, confirm the battery BMS supports the charger's lithium profile before use. IP22 rating means it should not be installed where exposed to direct rain or submersion. For permanent marine or vehicle installations, use a qualified electrician or accredited marine electrician.
