Victron Orion-TR Smart 12/12-30A is an isolated DC-DC charger and power supply designed for boats, RVs, and vehicles with smart alternators. It can act as a battery charger or fixed-voltage supply while protecting the starter battery and delivering reliable power to auxiliary systems.
-
Isolated DC-DC design: Provides independent charging and power supply with isolation to protect the starter battery and accommodate separate auxiliary battery banks.
-
High-power output: 360 W nominal (30 A at 12 V) with short-term peaks near 30 A for demanding loads.
-
Bluetooth Smart Enabled: Use the VictronConnect app to monitor, adjust settings, and receive updates.
-
Adaptive 3-Stage Charge Algorithm: For lead-acid batteries: Bulk – Absorption – Float with shortened absorption for shallow discharges and extended absorption after deep discharge; for lithium batteries: fixed absorption time (default 2 hours); fixed output voltage option available.
-
Smart Alternator Compatibility: Engine running detection ensures charging occurs only when appropriate; compatible with Euro 5/6 smart alternators.
-
Remote On/Off: Supports a two-pole remote switch or relay; you can switch either battery plus (H terminal) or battery minus/chassis (L terminal).
-
Paralleling Capability: Short circuit proof and can be paralleled to increase output current without a limit on the number of units.
-
Protection & Durability: High temperature protection automatically reduces output at high ambient temperatures; IP43 protection when screw terminals are oriented downward.
-
Easy Installation: Screw terminals require no special tools; input fuse is included as a non-replaceable safety feature.
-
Engine Shutdown Detection: Built-in detector stops the converter when the engine is not running, preventing starter battery discharge.
-
Technical specifications: Input 10–17 V; Under-voltage shut down at 7 V; Under-voltage restart at 7.5 V; Nominal output 12.2 V; Output adjust range 10–15 V; Output tolerance ±0.2 V; Output noise 2 mV rms; Continuous output current at nominal voltage and 40°C: 30 A; Maximum output current (10 s) at nominal voltage: ≈30 A; IP43 protection when downward screw terminals; Paralleling: unlimited units can be connected in parallel to increase output current.
Designed for marine, RV, and automotive environments, the Orion-TR delivers flexible, reliable power for critical systems on the move. It maintains optimal charging voltage across long runs and fluctuating input conditions, while protecting your starter battery. Bluetooth connectivity and the VictronConnect app offer straightforward monitoring and configuration for both lead-acid and lithium batteries. The ability to parallel units provides scalable power, and smart alternator compatibility ensures charging action aligns with engine operation.
