The Victron Energy Phoenix Charger 12/50 has adaptive 4-stage charge characteristic: bulk €“ absorption €“ float €“ storage. Two full rated outputs and one 4 Amp output. Universal input 90-265V, 50/60Hz. The Phoenix charger features a microprocessor controlled adaptive battery management system that can be pre-set to suit different types of batteries. The adaptive feature will automatically optimise the charge process relative to the way the battery is being used.
Features of the Phoenix Charger 12/50
The right amount of charge: variable absorption time When only shallow discharges occur (a yacht connected to shore power for example) the absorption time is kept short in order to prevent overcharging of the battery. After a deep discharge the absorption time is automatically increased to make sure that the battery is completely recharged.
To increase battery life: temperature compensation Every Phoenix Charger comes with a battery temperature sensor. When connected, charge voltage will automatically decrease with increasing battery temperature. This feature is especially recommended for sealed batteries and/or when important fluctuations of battery temperature are expected.
Battery voltage sense In order to compensate for voltage loss due to cable resistance, Phoenix Chargers are provided with a voltage sense facility so that the battery always receives the correct charge voltage.
Computer interface Every Phoenix Charger is ready to communicate with a computer through its RS-485 data port. Together with the VEConfigure software and the data link MK2-USB, all parameters of the chargers can be customised.
