Technical Specifications

Applications & Compatibility

The Victron Orion-Tr Isolated DC-DC Converter is highly versatile, making it suitable for a wide array of applications where a stable, isolated 24V DC power supply is required. It's commonly used in:

• Marine Systems: Powering navigation equipment, radios, and other sensitive electronics on boats.
• Vehicle & RV Systems: Providing stable power for onboard appliances and accessories in lorries, caravans, and motorhomes.
• Off-Grid & Remote Installations: Ensuring consistent power for communication systems, lighting, and other DC loads in solar or wind power setups.
• Industrial & Commercial Use: Supplying regulated power for control systems, sensors, and other 24V DC equipment.

Important Note on Battery Charging: While this converter can maintain a stable voltage, it is primarily designed as a power supply/voltage converter. For dedicated multi-stage battery charging, especially with smart alternators or lithium batteries, Solarika recommends considering the Victron Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger range, which offers advanced charging algorithms and Bluetooth connectivity.

Installation & Usage Notes

For optimal performance and safety, please ensure the following:

• Install the unit vertically on a non-flammable surface, with the screw terminals oriented downwards to achieve the stated IP43 protection rating.
• Allow for adequate ventilation around the converter (minimum 10 cm clearance above and below) to ensure optimal cooling and prevent derating at high ambient temperatures.
• Mount the converter close to the battery, but never directly above it, to prevent potential damage from battery gassing.
• Always refer to the official Victron Energy manual for detailed wiring diagrams, safety instructions, and specific installation requirements for your application.
• Ensure all cabling is correctly sized and fused according to manufacturer recommendations and local electrical regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q: Is this converter suitable for charging my leisure battery?
  A: This standard Orion-Tr model is primarily a DC-DC converter for stable power supply. While it can provide a constant voltage, it does not feature a multi-stage charging algorithm. For dedicated battery charging, especially for lithium batteries or with smart alternators, we recommend the Victron Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger range.
• Q: Does this model have Bluetooth?
  A: No, this is the standard Orion-Tr Isolated model (ORI242410110) and does not include Bluetooth connectivity. Bluetooth features are available on the "Smart" versions of the Orion-Tr range.
• Q: Can I connect multiple units in parallel to get more power?
  A: Yes, an unlimited number of these Orion-Tr converters can be connected in parallel to increase the total output current and power.
• Q: What does "isolated" mean?
  A: "Isolated" means there is no electrical connection between the input and output circuits. This provides galvanic isolation, which helps prevent ground loops, reduces electrical noise, and enhances safety by protecting sensitive equipment from potential faults on the input side.

Please verify the model, SKU, and compatibility with your existing system requirements before purchase. For detailed technical information, always refer to the official Victron Energy datasheets and manuals.
