Victron Energy Smart IP43 24V 25A Dual-Output Battery Charger – PSC242551095


The Victron Energy Phoenix Smart IP43 Charger 24/25(1+1) 120–240V, manufacturer part number PSC242551095, is an intelligent AC-to-DC battery charger designed for compatible nominal 24V battery systems. It combines a powerful 25A main charging output, a separate auxiliary starter battery output, built-in Bluetooth Smart connectivity, VE.Direct communication, and Victron Energy's adaptive six-stage charging technology.

The 24/25(1+1) configuration provides two battery connections with different functions. The primary output delivers up to 25A for a compatible house or service battery bank, while the auxiliary output supplies up to 4A at a slightly lower charging voltage to help maintain a separate starter battery. This configuration is particularly useful in marine, mobile, and other electrical systems that maintain separate service and starting batteries.

Unlike the Phoenix Smart IP43 24/25(3), which provides three full-current battery connections sharing the charger's total rated current, the 24/25(1+1) is specifically designed for a main battery bank and a limited-current starter battery connection. This distinction is important when selecting the appropriate charger for a multi-battery installation.

Important: The PSC242551095 is a 24V AC-powered battery charger with a 25A main output and a separate 4A maximum starter battery output. It is not a solar MPPT charge controller, inverter, or automatic AC transfer switch. The AC mains cord must be purchased separately; the AC inlet retaining clip is included.
