Victron Phoenix Battery Charger

• Adaptive 4-stage charging characteristic: bulk - absorption - float - storage
• Two fully rated outputs and one 4-amp output
• Universal input 90–265 V, 50/60 Hz                                                                                                                 

The Phoenix battery charger features a microprocessor-controlled adaptive battery management system that can be preset for different types of batteries. The adaptive function automatically optimizes the charging process according to how the battery is used. Every Victron Phoenix Charger comes with a battery temperature sensor. When the battery is connected, the charging voltage automatically decreases as the battery temperature rises.

This feature is especially recommended for sealed batteries and/or when significant fluctuations in battery temperature are expected. Every Phoenix Charger is ready to communicate with a computer via the RS-485 data port. Together with the VEConfigure software, which can be downloaded free of charge from www.victronenergy.com, and the MK2-USB data link (see accessories), all charger parameters can be adjusted.

Adaptive 4-stage charging characteristic: Bulk-Absorption-Float-Storage. The microprocessor-controlled “adaptive” battery management system can be configured for different types of batteries. The adaptive function automatically adjusts the charging process to the way the battery is used.

The Phoenix Charger is a fully high-frequency battery charger. The input stage ensures that the charger draws a sinusoidal input current with a power factor (cos phi) equal to 1. The next stage provides galvanic isolation and a perfect DC voltage at the output terminals. The charging process is controlled by a microcontroller. The self-learning software in the microcontroller automatically optimizes the charging process, taking into account how the connected batteries are used. The internal electronics are protected against moisture and dirt by a special coating, ensuring a long service life for your battery charger. The Phoenix Charger has two main outputs across which the full charging current is distributed. A third output with limited charging capacity is provided for charging, for example, a starter battery. The charger is protected against short circuits and high temperatures.
