The Victron Orion-Tr 24/12-20A is an isolated DC-DC converter that turns a 24 V supply into 12 V. It accepts 16 to 35 V in and is rated for 20 A continuous, or 240 W up to 40°C, with a 25 A maximum. The output is galvanically isolated, rated 200 VDC. Its under-voltage shutdown is 14 V.
Our take
The 14 V under-voltage shutdown means the converter stops once its 24 V input falls to that level. The 20 A continuous rating, with a 25 A maximum, sets how much 12 V load it can carry, and the 200 VDC isolation keeps the two sides electrically separate.
From our buying guide
Each maker sets its own alternator rules. Battle Born calls a DC-to-DC charger a simple and safe way to use alternator charging.
Check before you buy:
- It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
- Battle Born warns that a BMS shutdown leaves the vessel without power, and that one during alternator charging can severely damage the alternator.
