1. Safety instructions

Blue Smart IP22 Charger 1. Safety instructions Carefully read the manual before the charger is installed and operated; retain the manual in a safe place for future reference. The charger must not be installed or operated by anyone who lacks the appropriate knowledge or competence required for safe installation and/or usage. Charger installation and operation A. Install the charger in a location with good natural airflow/ventilation and sufficient unobstructed space around it; refer to the the 'Installation > Mounting' section for more information. B.

Install the charger on a non-flammable substrate and ensure there are no heat-sensitive items in the immediate vicinity; it is normal for the charger to become hot during operation. C. Install the charger in a location where it is protected from environmental conditions such as water, moisture, dust and direct sunlight. D. Do not install or operate the charger directly above the battery, or in a sealed compartment with the battery; batteries can emit explosive gasses. E. Do not cover or place any other items on top of the charger. Battery installation and charging A. Install and charge the battery in a location with good natural airflow/ventilation. B.

Ensure that there are no ignition sources near the battery; batteries can emit explosive gasses. C. Battery acid is corrosive; if battery acid comes into contact with skin immediately rinse with water. D. Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries or Li-ion batteries if the battery temperature is below 0°C. DC connection to battery A. Use flexible multi stranded copper DC power cable with sufficient cross sectional area, and install a suitably rated inline fuse or circuit breaker located as close as practical to the battery; refer to the 'Installation > Wiring' section for more information. B. Ensure that the DC power cable polarity is correct at all connections. C.

Ensure that the DC system is fully shut down/isolated prior to disconnection of any existing cabling and/or new connections are made to the battery/DC system. D. There are specific wiring connection instructions for charging a battery installed within a vehicle; refer to the 'Installation > Wiring' section for more information. AC connection to mains supply A. AC connection to the mains supply must be in accordance with local electrical regulations. The charger must be plugged into an earthed AC mains power outlet. B. Do not operate the charger if the AC power cable is damaged, contact a service agent. Charger setup A.

Refer to the battery manufacturers instructions and specifications to ensure the battery is suitable for use with this charger and confirm the recommended charge settings. B. The integrated charge modes (selected via the charger or Bluetooth) combined with adaptive charge logic are well suited for most common battery types; such as flooded lead-acid, AGM, Gel and LiFePO4. If necessary, advanced configuration with user defined settings is also possible using a Bluetooth enabled device (mobile phone or tablet) with the VictronConnect app. Page 1 Safety instructions WARNING: CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.1. UL compliance supplement - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Blue Smart IP22 Charger 1.1. UL compliance supplement - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for Blue Smart Charger models. 3. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Victron Energy may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 2. Do not expose charger to rain or snow. 4. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. 5. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension cord must be used, make sure: a.

That pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on charger; b. that extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and 6. Do not operate the charger with damaged cord or plug; contact your service agent or the manufacturer. c. that wire size is large enough for ac ampere rating of charger. 7. Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; contact your service agent or the manufacturer. 8. Do not disassemble the charger; contact your service agent or the manufacturer when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire. 9.

To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk. 10. WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSIVE GASES a. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL BATTERY OPERATION. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT EACH TIME BEFORE USING YOUR CHARGER, YOU READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. b. Follow these instructions and those published by the battery manufacturer and manufacturer of any equipment you intend to use in vicinity of the battery. 11. PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS a. Consider having someone close enough by to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery. b.

Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes. c. Wear complete eye protection and clothing protection. Avoid touching eyes while working near a battery. d. If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid enters eye, immediately flood eye with running cold water for at least 10 minutes and get medical attention immediately. e. NEVER smoke or allow a spark or flame in vicinity of a battery or engine. f. Be extra cautious to reduce risk of dropping a metal tool onto battery. It might spark or short-circuit the battery or an other electrical part that may cause explosion. g.

Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery can produce a short-circuit current high enough to weld a ring or the like to metal, causing a severe burn. h. Do not use the battery charger for charging dry-cell batteries that are commonly used with home appliances. These batteries may burst and cause injury to persons and damage to property. i. NEVER charge a frozen battery. 12. PREPARING TO CHARGE a. If it is necessary to remove the battery from a vehicle prior to charging, always remove the grounded terminal from the battery first.

Make sure all accessories in the vehicle are off, so as not to cause an arc. b. Be sure that the area around the battery is well ventilated while the battery is being charged c. Clean battery terminals. Be careful to keep corrosion from coming in contact with eyes. d. Add distilled water in each cell until battery acid reaches level specified by battery manufacturer. Do not overfill. For a battery without cell caps, such as valve regulated lead acid batteries, carefully follow the charging instructions of the manufacturer. e. Study all battery manufacturer’s specific precautions while charging and recommended rates of charge. f.

Determine the nominal voltage of the battery by referring to the owner’s manual of the vehicle and make sure it matches the output rating of the battery charger. Page 2 Safety instructions
