Experience enhanced performance, protection, and peace of mind with Victron's trusted quality.
The Orion Smart DC-DC charger can be set up to only provide power when the engine is running. This is possible thanks to the built-in engine shutdown detection. This also prevents the onboard voltage of the vehicle from becoming too low. It is not necessary to intervene in the system of the vehicle, to install a separate motor run sensor or to intervene in the CAN-bus system. Apart from this detection, the Orion Smart DC-DC charger can also be activated by a forced allowed to charge feature, e.g. connected to the ignition switch.

Any Bluetooth enabled Apple or Android smart phone, tablet or other device can be used to monitor, change settings and to update the charger when new software features become available via the VictronConnect App.
All models are short circuit proof and can be paralleled to increase output current- An unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel.
|
Bluetooth Smart Enabled- Any Bluetooth enabled smart phone, tablet or other device can be used to monitor, to change settings and to update the charger when new software features become available.
Fully Programmable- Battery charge algorithm (configurable) or fixed output. Smart alternator compatibility: engine running detection mechanism.
Adaptive 3-Stage Charge Algorithm: Bulk – Absorption – Float- For lead acid batteries it is important that during shallow discharges the absorption time is kept short in order to prevent overcharging of the battery. After a deep discharge the absorption time is automatically increased to make sure that the battery is completely recharged.
Remote on-off- A remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected to a two-pole connector. Alternatively, the H terminal (right) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery plus, or the L terminal (left) of the two pole connector can be switched to battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle, for example).
Vehicle manufacturers are now introducing smart ECU (Engine Control Unit) controlled alternators to increase fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Smart alternators deliver a variable output voltage and are shut down when they’re not needed. The converter has a engine running detection mechanism. This prevents the converter from discharging the starter battery when the alternator does not supply power. The Orion-Tr Smart Isolated DC-DC charger separates the starter battery from the service battery when the engine is not running.
*Please Note: A 60A circuit protection is required on both sides of the unit (start battery and auxiliary battery). Minimum cable size is 10mm2.
Victron have chosen to separate the charger and the solar regulators, these are the advantages:

Remote on-off: A remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected to a two-pole connector. Alternatively, the H terminal (right) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery plus, or the L terminal (left) of the two–pole connector can be switched to battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle, for example).
The Orion-Tr Smart charger can be used in 12V or 24V systems and is suitable for lead acid and lithium batteries. Models are available up to 400W, and unlimited multiple units can be connected in parallel to increase output power. All you need to do is plug it in, clip it on and turn it on. That’s it. Set and forget. They will never overcharge and are compatible with common automotive batteries including lithium (LiFeP04).
REMOTE ON/OFF
Use the remote function to enable and disable the converter remotely with the remote on/off connector or using the VictronConnect app. Typical use cases include a user operated hard wired switch and automatic control by for example a Battery Management System.
ELECTRONIC PROTECTION
Over-temperature protection and power derating when temperature is high. Overload protected. Short circuit protected. Connector over-temperature protection. An unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel to increase charging amps.
SAFE & LIGHTWEIGHT
Can be Paralleled to increase output current. An unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel.
LCD POWER READOUTS
Battery meter makes it easy to see the status of your battery
EASY TO USE
A remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected to a two-pole connector. Alternatively, the H terminal (right) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery plus, or the L terminal (left) of the two-pole connector can be switched to battery minus (or the chassis of a vehicle, for example).
TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
The output current will reduce at high ambient temperature.
IP43 Protection
When installed with the screw terminals oriented downwards.
Either unit can be used for systems that don’t require isolation, but the non-isolated requires one less wire to be installed.
One example of a non-isolated system is an automotive system, such as both batteries are negative and connected to the chassis of a vehicle. The system is non-isolated but either unit will suit.
The Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger is a professional DC to DC adaptive 3-stage charger with built-in Bluetooth. For use in dual battery systems in vehicles or on boats where the (smart) alternator and the start battery are used to charge the service battery. The unit can be monitored and programmed via Bluetooth and can be remotely controlled via a remote on/off switch and has an engine running detection mechanism. The Orion Tr-Smart charger can be used in 12V or 24V 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 °C with a full rated output up to 40°C.
