Victron Phoenix Smart IP43 12V 50A 3-Bank Charger

The Victron Phoenix Smart IP43 12V 50A is a three-bank charger accepting 120-240V AC, rated IP43.

Fifty amps across three banks is the largest Phoenix Smart configuration, and each output can take the full 50 amps individually rather than being locked to a third of capacity. The combined total stays within the charger's rating, so a bank returning nearly flat draws heavily while one already charged takes almost nothing.

That arrangement matters most on a boat where the banks come back at very different states, which is the normal situation after any trip. A fixed-split charger of the same rating would give each output around 17 amps whether it needed them or not.

The adaptive charging process varies absorption time by discharge depth rather than following fixed timing, and Bluetooth gives setup and monitoring through VictronConnect. Auto-ranging 120-240V input works on shore supplies in either region, and IP43 suits a protected marine installation rather than an exposed one. Explore more 3-bank battery chargers.
