Victron Phoenix Smart IP43 12/24V charger

"Victron Phoenix Smart IP43 charger

Bluetooth Smart enabled

Any smartphone, tablet or other device with Bluetooth enabled can be used to monitor the ch argeur, change settings and update it if new software features are available.

Phoenix Smart (1+1): two outputs for charging 2 battery banks

Designed for maintenance of a starter battery, the second output is limited to around 3 amps at a slightly lower voltage.

Phoenix Smart (3): three complete current outputs to charge 3 battery banks

All outputs can supply the full rated output current.

Automatic voltage compensation

The charger compensates for voltage drops on the DC wiring by slightly increasing the output voltage if the DC current increases. Please refer to the manual for further details.

The right amount of charge: variable absorption time

When the battery is under little load (e.g. on a boat connected to the quay), the absorption charge phase is shortened to avoid overcharging. After a deep discharge, the absorption time is automatically increased to ensure that the battery is fully recharged.

Preventing damage due to gassing: BatterySafe mode

If, to recharge a battery quickly, a high charging power is combined with a high absorption voltage, the Phoenix charger will prevent deterioration due to excessive gassing by automatically limiting voltage progression, as soon as the gassing voltage has been reached.

Less maintenance and ageing when the battery is not in use: Storage Mode

Storage mode is activated when the battery has not been used for 24 hours. In standby mode, float voltage is reduced to 2.2 V/cell (13.2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week, the voltage is raised to absorption level to "equalize" the battery. This function prevents electrolyte stratification and sulfation, major causes of premature battery ageing.

Can also charge lithium-ion batteries (LiFePO4)

An On-Off charger control function can be implemented by connecting a relay or an open-collector optocoupler output from a lithium-ion BMS to the remote control port. Alternatively, full voltage and current control can be performed via Bluetooth.

Remote On/Off

The system's remote on/off has two terminals: the remote H terminal, and the remote L terminal. A remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected between terminals H and L. Alternatively, terminal H can be pulled up, or terminal L pulled down. For further details, please refer to the manual.
