xVictron Blue Smart IP22 Charger 24V/12A (1 Output) 230V UK
The Victron Blue Smart IP22 24/12 is a single-output, Bluetooth-enabled battery charger rated at 24V and 12A, supplied with a UK BS 1363 mains plug. It is designed for professional and trade use where a reliable, programmable charger is needed for 24V battery banks in vehicles, boats, off-grid systems and industrial equipment.
Key Features
- 12A charge current output on a single output channel for 24V battery systems.
- Built-in Bluetooth connectivity allows full monitoring and configuration via the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android.
- IP22 ingress protection rating: protected against solid objects over 12.5mm and against direct water spray, suitable for use in engine bays, vans and marine environments.
- Adaptive 7-stage charge algorithm covering bulk, absorption, float, storage, equalisation and recondition phases.
- Compatible with lead-acid battery types including GEL, AGM, enhanced flooded (EFB) and conventional flooded, as well as lithium LiFePO4 batteries.
- Storage mode automatically reduces float voltage after 24 hours to minimise battery wear during long-term storage.
- 230V AC input with a standard UK BS 1363 plug fitted as standard, no adapter required.
- Temperature-compensated charging when used with an optional Victron temperature sensor.
Product Overview
The Blue Smart IP22 range uses a fully adaptive charge algorithm that adjusts absorption time based on actual battery condition rather than a fixed timer. This means a deeply discharged battery receives a full, properly managed charge cycle, while a battery in good condition is not overcharged. The 7-stage process includes a recondition phase that can recover stratified or mildly sulphated lead-acid batteries, extending service life in demanding applications.
Bluetooth configuration via VictronConnect gives installers direct access to charge settings, battery type selection, charge history and real-time status without needing a separate display or proprietary interface cable. All settings are stored on the unit, so the charger operates independently once configured. The IP22 enclosure is appropriate for enclosed spaces such as vehicle cabinets, battery compartments and engine rooms where some moisture exposure is possible but direct immersion is not expected.
At 0.9kg, the unit is compact enough for permanent installation in tight spaces. The single-output configuration suits applications where one 24V battery bank requires dedicated, continuous charging from a 230V shore power or mains supply.

Installation Notes
This charger connects to a standard 230V UK mains socket and requires no hardwiring for basic use. Permanent installation in a vehicle, vessel or battery cabinet should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent installer familiar with 12V/24V DC systems. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit during charging. For LiFePO4 battery compatibility, verify the battery BMS supports external charger connections before use. No grid connection or G98/G99 compliance is required for this product.
