The Victron Orion-Tr 48/12-30A is an isolated DC-DC converter that takes a 48 V supply and delivers 12 V. Input range is 32 to 70 V, and it is rated for 30 A continuous output, which is 360 W up to 40°C, with a 40 A maximum. The output is galvanically isolated, rated 200 VDC. The unit is short-circuit proof and has over-temperature protection.
Our take
The 30 A continuous rating, with a 40 A maximum, sets how much 12 V load this converter can carry from a 48 V bank. The 200 VDC isolation also keeps the 12 V side electrically separate from the 48 V side.
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.
