Smart Charging for Boat Owners: Tailored for boat owners, this adaptive 5-step charger can provide 30A of charge to three battery banks. 

Bluetooth Smart Technology: Stay in control effortlessly with Bluetooth-enabled monitoring. Use your smartphone, tablet, or any Bluetooth-enabled device to monitor the charger, change settings, and update software features as they become available.

Adaptive 5-Stage Charge Algorithm: Experience optimal battery management with the adaptive 5-stage charge algorithm, including bulk, absorption, recondition, float, and storage modes. Customize the charge process based on your battery type and usage.

Automatic Voltage Compensation: Combat voltage drop over DC cabling with automatic voltage compensation. The charger adjusts output voltage to account for increased DC current, ensuring a stable charge.

BatterySafe Mode: Prevent damage due to excessive gassing with the BatterySafe mode. The charger limits the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage is reached, ensuring the safety of your batteries.

Storage Mode for Longevity: Minimize maintenance and aging during periods of inactivity with the Storage Mode. This feature reduces the float voltage to prevent gassing and corrosion, promoting battery longevity.

Versatility with Li-ion Batteries: Not just limited to traditional batteries, the Phoenix Smart Charger can also charge Li-ion (LiFePO4) batteries. Achieve full control of voltage and current through Bluetooth or connect a relay for on-off control.

Fully Programmable Charge Algorithm: Take charge of your charging process with a fully programmable charge algorithm. Use Bluetooth or the VE.Direct interface to customize settings according to your preferences.

Remote On-Off Functionality: Enjoy convenient remote on-off control with two terminals, Remote H and Remote L. Connect a switch or relay contact to manage the charger from a distance.

VE.Direct Interface for Connectivity: For wired data connections, use the VE.Direct interface to connect to a Color Control panel, PC, or other devices.

Programmable Relay for Customization: Tailor the charger to your specific needs by programming the relay using the VE.Direct interface or Bluetooth-enabled devices to trip on alarms or other events.

Charging Profiles & Voltage Settings

  • Charge Algorithm: 6-stage adaptive (Bulk, Absorption, Recondition, Float, Storage, Refresh) / 3-stage for Lithium-ion
  • Temperature Compensation (Lead-acid): -16mV/°C (N/A for Lithium-ion)
  • Normal Mode Charge Voltages: Absorption: 14.4V | Float: 13.8V | Storage: 13.2V
  • High Mode Charge Voltages: Absorption: 14.7V | Float: 13.8V | Storage: 13.2V

Battery Sizing Recommendations

  • Recommended Battery Capacity: Up to 300Ah
  • Minimum Battery Capacity (Normal Mode): Lead-acid: 120Ah | Lithium-ion (LiFePO4): 60Ah
  • Minimum Battery Capacity (Low Current Mode): Lead-acid: 60Ah | Lithium-ion (LiFePO4): 30Ah

Key Features & Functionality

  • Adaptive Battery Management: Automatically optimizes the charging cycle based on how the battery is used. If only shallow discharges occur, the absorption time is shortened to prevent overcharging. After a deep discharge, absorption time is increased to ensure full recovery.
  • Built-In Bluetooth Smart: Wirelessly configure, monitor, control, update, and program your charger using the VictronConnect app on a mobile phone or tablet.
  • VE.Smart Wireless Networking: Wirelessly pair with other Smart IP43 Chargers for synchronized charging to improve efficiency and prolong battery life. Can also receive real-time voltage, current, and temperature sense data from a compatible battery monitor (such as a Smart Battery Sense or SmartShunt) to optimize charging accuracy.
  • VE.Direct Wired Interface: Fully integrates with GX monitoring devices (like the Cerbo GX) for local system monitoring and remote access via the Victron Remote Monitoring (VRM) portal.
  • BatterySafe Mode: Limits the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage is reached (between 14.4V and 15.0V) to prevent damage from excessive gassing.
  • Automatic Storage Mode: Reduces float voltage to 13.2V if the battery is not discharged for 24 hours to minimize gassing and corrosion. Once a week, it temporarily raises the voltage back to absorption level to equalize the battery and prevent sulphation.
  • Severe Discharge Recovery: Successfully initiates recharging with low current on severely discharged batteries (even down to 0V) and resumes normal charging once battery voltage has sufficiently recovered.
  • DC Power Supply Mode: Configurable via VictronConnect to act as a constant DC power supply to power equipment with or without a battery connected.
  • Automatic Cable Voltage Compensation: Compensates for voltage drops over DC cabling by slightly raising the output voltage as DC current increases.
  • Programmable Relay: Features an SPDT relay (rated for up to 5A up to 250VAC or 5A up to 28VDC) that can be programmed to trigger on alarms or other specified system events.
