Victron Energy Orion-Tr 48/12-30A (360W) Isolated DC-DC Converter

Technical Specifications  User manual

The Victron Energy Orion-Tr 48/12-30A converts a 48V-class DC supply into adjustable 12V output for powering lower-voltage equipment in RVs, marine systems, vehicles, and off-grid installations. Its galvanic isolation separates the input, output, and case, while remote on/off control and built-in protection support reliable operation in demanding electrical systems.

FEATURES

• Voltage conversion: Converts 48V DC to an adjustable 10–15V DC output.

• High output current: Provides 30A continuous output at 40°C.

• Galvanic isolation: 200V DC isolation between input, output, and case.

• Remote on/off control: Operates through a low-power switch or compatible engine signal.

• Parallel operation: Multiple units can be connected in parallel to increase output current.

• Built-in protection: Short-circuit protection and thermal protection with automatic output-current reduction at high temperatures.

• IP43 protection: Applies when installed with the screw terminals facing downward.

• Simple installation: Screw terminals require no special tools.
