The Victron Orion 12/24-20 is a non-isolated DC-DC converter that turns a 12V supply into an adjustable 24V output (20 to 30V, set to 26.4V) at up to 20A (480W). It powers 24V equipment from a 12V system and can buffer-charge a 24V battery.

Description

The Victron Orion 12/24-20 is a non-isolated DC-DC converter that steps a 12V supply up to a 24V output, delivering up to 20A (480W continuous). The output is adjustable with a potentiometer over a 20 to 30V range, with a factory setting of 26.4V, so it can power 24V equipment from a 12V system or buffer-charge a 24V battery from a 12V source.

Efficiency is around 93 percent and a temperature-controlled fan keeps the unit cool at this higher power level. A remote on/off connector removes the need for a high-current switch in the input wiring and can be driven by a low-power switch or the engine run/stop signal. Adjustable-output models can be paralleled, up to five units, to increase the available output current.

Power connections use M6 bolts for secure high-current wiring, and the converter installs without special tools.

Can the Orion 12/24-20 charge a battery?
It can buffer-charge a 24V battery from a 12V source because the output is adjustable, but it is a converter rather than a multi-stage charger. For a controlled charge profile use an Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger.
Does it have a cooling fan?
Yes. At this higher power level the converter uses a temperature-controlled fan, which only runs when needed to keep the unit cool.
Is the output voltage adjustable?
Yes. The output is set with a potentiometer over a 20 to 30V range and leaves the factory at 26.4V.
Is it isolated?
No. This is a non-isolated converter, so the 12V input and 24V output share a common negative. If galvanic isolation is required, choose an isolated Orion-Tr converter.
