The Victron Orion 12/24-20 is a high power Victron DC-DC converter that turns a 12 V supply into an adjustable 20-30 V output.
An ever-increasing amount of electric equipment is being used on vehicles and boats. This Orion 12/24-20 is the 12 V to 24 V model in Victron Energy's high power, non-isolated DC-DC converter range. It delivers a stable, adjustable 20-30 V output from a 9-18 V supply, with high efficiency. An inferior supply can cause damage to 24 V equipment, and an Orion voltage converter is designed to prevent that.
The Orion 12/24-20 steps a 12 V supply up to 24 V, for example to run 24 V equipment from a 12 V vehicle. Its output is adjustable, so it can also buffer-charge a 24 V battery. Up to five units can be connected in parallel for more current.
This is a non-isolated converter, with no galvanic isolation between input and output. If you need an isolated DC-DC converter, look at the Victron Energy Orion-Tr isolated range. Temperature-controlled fan cooling helps at high temperature, and output derates by 3% per °C above 40°C.
Charging a 12 V leisure battery from the alternator? You want a DC-DC battery charger such as the Victron Orion XS 12/12-50A instead. Figures here are from Victron's Orion non-isolated datasheet.
