About this product

The Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger by Victron Energy is a professional-grade adaptive charger for dual battery systems. It is specifically designed for use in vehicles or boats where the start battery and alternator are utilised to charge a secondary service battery. This charger is suitable for both 12V and 24V systems, accommodating a wide range of battery types, including lead-acid and lithium.

Its built-in Bluetooth connectivity enables real-time monitoring, configuration, and software updates via a smartphone or tablet. The unit is fully programmable, allowing for tailored battery charging profiles and settings for precise control. It features an adaptive 3-stage charge algorithm (bulk, absorption, and float), which automatically adjusts to battery usage for efficient charging.

Additionally, the Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC Charger supports parallel connections, permitting unlimited units to be connected for increased output power. With a high-temperature tolerance up to 55°C, IP43 protection (when installed with screw terminals facing down), and short-circuit-proof design, this charger is built for reliability and versatility in demanding environments.
