{"product_id":"victron-skylla-ip65-battery-charger","title":"Victron Skylla-IP65 Battery Charger","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Victron Skylla-IP65 is a battery charger built for installations exposed to heat, humidity and salt air. Its epoxy powder-coated IP65 steel case withstands these conditions, and an acrylic coating protects the circuit boards against corrosion. Temperature sensors keep power components within specified limits, automatically reducing output current under extreme environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Victron Skylla-IP65 model can serve more than one battery bank. The (1+1) models charge a main bank and top up a starter battery from a second isolated output of approximately 3A. The (3) models charge three banks from isolated outputs that can each supply the full rated current, within a combined maximum of 70A on the 12V model or 35A on the 24V model. The 12\/70 versions suit 12V banks of 350Ah to 700Ah, and the 24\/35 versions suit 24V banks of 150Ah to 350Ah.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor lead-acid batteries, the 7-stage adaptive algorithm keeps absorption time short after shallow discharges and extends it after a deep discharge. BatterySafe mode limits the rate of voltage rise once the gassing voltage is reached. Storage mode reduces the float voltage to 2.2V per cell when the battery has not been discharged for 24 hours, minimising gassing and corrosion of the positive plates, and raises it to absorption level once a week to refresh the battery. The supplied temperature sensor and the voltage sense facility correct the charge voltage for battery temperature and cable losses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor lithium systems, a Li-Ion battery management system (BMS) can switch the charger on and off through its remote on-off port. Alternatively, connecting to the CAN-bus port gives complete control of voltage and current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical applications include marine installations running from shore power or generators, salt-air and high-humidity environments, multi-bank battery systems, and DC loads that need a stabilised supply where batteries or large buffer capacitors are not available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the LCD display to monitor status and adapt the charge algorithm to a particular battery and its conditions of use. The VE.Can (NMEA2000) interface connects the Victron Skylla-IP65 to a CAN-bus network or a Color Control display. A Skylla-i Control panel on the same interface adds remote control, monitoring and input current limiting for limited shore power or small gensets. The interface also synchronises multiple chargers in parallel over RJ45 UTP cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerbox Pacific provides local engineering support for system design and integration.
