Description
The Victron Energy Orion-Tr 24/12-20A is a fully isolated 240W DC-DC converter engineered for reliable voltage conversion in mobile, marine, and industrial power systems.
Key Features
- Galvanic Isolation 200VDC isolation between input, output, and case eliminates ground loop issues and protects sensitive equipment.
- Remote On/Off Terminal A low-power switch or engine run/stop signal controls the unit remotely, eliminating the need for high-current input wiring switches.
- Paralleling Capability An unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel to scale output current as system demands grow.
- Adjustable Output Voltage Output is adjustable from 10–15V to fine-tune system voltage without additional regulators.
- High Temperature Protection Output current automatically reduces at elevated ambient temperatures, preventing thermal damage and ensuring longevity.
The Orion-Tr 24/12-20A delivers 20A continuous output at 40°C from a 16–35VDC input, with a peak efficiency of 88% and short circuit output current rated at 50A. Its screw terminal design requires no special tools, making installation straightforward in any professional setting.
With an operating temperature range of -20°C to +55°C and a humidity tolerance of up to 95% non-condensing, this unit is built for harsh environments. The IP43 protection rating applies when installed with screw terminals oriented downward.
Compliant with EN 60950, EN 61000-6-3, EN 55014-1, EN 61000-6-2, and ECE R10-5 automotive directive standards, the Orion-Tr meets rigorous international safety, emission, and immunity certifications for professional-grade installations.
