The Victron Orion-TR DC-DC Converter delivers a clean, isolated 12 V output from a 12 V input, providing reliable power for sensitive electronics in rugged automotive, marine, and off-grid applications. It supports up to 30 A continuously and features configurable, isolated power with safety and scalability in mind.
-
Isolated output: galvanic isolation between input and output with 200 VDC isolation between input, output, and case for safer power distribution.
-
Remote On/Off: control the converter with a low-current switch or engine run/stop signal, avoiding the need for a high-current input switch.
-
Paralleling capability: unlimited units can be connected in parallel to scale output current; all models are short-circuit proof.
-
High temperature protection: output current derates by 3% for every °C above 40 °C to protect the unit in heat.
-
IP43 protection: terminals oriented downward for installations where screw terminals face down, offering added protection.
-
Rugged, tool-free installation: screw terminals with no special tools required; input fuse (not replaceable) on 12 V and 24 V input models only.
-
Adjustable output: output can be set from 10–15 V (nominal output 12.2 V) with ±0.2 V tolerance and 2 mV RMS noise; not intended for battery charging.
-
Efficiency and power: up to 87% efficiency; 30 A continuous at nominal voltage; 430 W continuous at 25 °C (360 W at 40 °C); 60 A short-circuit current.
-
Low standby power: no-load input current < 80 mA; < 200 µA draw when disabled via the remote port.
-
Durability and safety: complies with EN 60950 safety standard; immunity: EN 61000-6-2, EN 61000-6-1, EN 55014-2; automotive directive EN R10-5.
-
Environment and construction: operating temperature -20 to +55 °C (3% derate per °C above 40 °C); humidity up to 95% non-condensing; dimensions 130 x 186 x 80 mm; weight 1.8 kg; DC connection via screw terminals with a maximum cable cross-section of 16 mm² (AWG6).
-
Not for battery charging: not intended for charging batteries; if charging capability is required, consider the Orion-Tr Smart family.
-
California Prop65 warning: this product can expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm.
In practical terms, the Orion-TR provides a reliable, isolated power source for sensitive electronics across mixed-vehicle, boat, or off-grid systems. Its isolation minimizes ground loops and noise, while remote control and the ability to parallel units offer flexible, scalable power setups. With robust temperature protection and a compact footprint, it is designed to perform reliably in challenging environments without needing special tools for installation.
