Victron Energy Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger Isolated 48/12 20A (240W)

Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger Isolated 48/12 20A (240W)

The Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger is an adaptive 3-stage charger (bulk absorption float) designed for dual-battery systems, such as in vehicles or on boats, where the starter battery (hence the alternator) is used to charge the service battery. The name Smart originates from its built-in Bluetooth connection, which allows the charger to be monitored and configured remotely via Bluetooth. It also features a remote on/off switch and an engine running detection mechanism. This isolated model allows the input and output to have separate chassis grounds.

The Orion-Tr Smart charger can be used in 12V, 24V, or 48V systems and is suitable for both lead acid and lithium batteries. Models are available up to 400W, and unlimited multiple units can be connected in parallel to increase output power.

Suitable for high temperatures up to 55C with a full rated output up to 40C.

Features:

• Remote on/off terminal - The remote on/off terminal eliminates the need for a high current switch in the input wiring. The remote on/off can be operated with a low-power switch, or, for example, the engine run/stop switch.
• All models are short-circuit proof and can be paralleled to increase output current. An unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel.
• High temperature protected - The output current will reduce at high ambient temperature.
• IP43 protection - When installed with the screw terminals oriented downwards.
• Screw terminals - No special tools are needed for installation.
• Input fuse (not replaceable) - On 12 V and 24 V input models only.
• Adjustable output voltage - Not intended for battery charging. Please consider using an Orion-Tr Smart for battery charging.

The Victron Energy Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger model ORI481224120 is a versatile, adaptive 3-stage charger designed for dual-battery systems in vehicles, boats, and similar applications. It features a bulk, absorption, and float charging profile, optimized for maintaining and recharging batteries efficiently. The charger operates in 12V, 24V, or 48V systems and is compatible with both lead-acid and lithium batteries, making it suitable for a wide range of energy storage setups. Its isolated design allows input and output to have separate chassis grounds, enhancing safety and system flexibility. The built-in Bluetooth connectivity enables remote monitoring and configuration, providing convenience for system management. Additional features include a remote on/off terminal, engine running detection, and the ability to connect multiple units in parallel to increase total output capacity. The charger is designed to withstand high temperatures up to 55°C, with full rated output available up to 40°C, ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments. Its IP43 protection rating, when installed with screw terminals downward, offers resistance to dust and splashes, while the screw terminals facilitate straightforward installation without special tools. The input fuse on 12V and 24V models provides additional protection, although it is non-replaceable. The adjustable output voltage feature allows fine-tuning for specific applications, although it is not intended for direct battery charging, for which dedicated models are recommended. The Orion-Tr Smart charger is ideal for those seeking reliable, flexible, and remotely manageable DC-DC charging solutions for complex battery systems.
