Description

The Orion XS 1400 is a wide input range DC-DC battery charger for dual battery systems in vehicles and boats, suitable for both 12V and 24V installations thanks to its 9 to 35V input range and 10 to 35V adjustable output. It charges a service battery from the starter battery or alternator and delivers up to 1400W, making it well suited to systems with a Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternator that supplies a charging voltage too low to fully charge the service battery, and to long cable runs where voltage drop reduces charge voltage at the battery.

An integrated engine shutdown detection mechanism establishes whether the engine is running and only activates the charger when the alternator is supplying power, protecting the starter battery from deep discharge. The adaptive four-stage charge algorithm (bulk, absorption, float and storage) shortens the absorption time after shallow discharges and extends it after deep discharges, with fully programmable charge profiles and eight pre-programmed battery settings for lead-acid and lithium batteries. An automatic buck-boost stage keeps the output voltage stable and independent of the input voltage.

Built-in Bluetooth Smart, a VE.Direct port and VE.Smart Networking allow the charger to be configured and monitored through the VictronConnect app and to receive voltage, temperature and current data from a compatible monitor such as a SmartShunt or BMV. The unit is rated IP65, is cooled by natural convection without a fan, and an unlimited number of units can be connected in parallel to increase output current.

Can the Orion XS 1400 be used in both 12V and 24V systems?
Yes. It has a wide 9 to 35V input range and a 10 to 35V adjustable output, so it can charge both 12V and 24V service batteries. The output is set with the VictronConnect app and an automatic buck-boost stage keeps the output stable regardless of input voltage.
Is the Orion XS 1400 a battery charger or a converter?
It is a DC-DC battery charger. It uses an adaptive four-stage charge algorithm (bulk, absorption, float and storage) with eight pre-programmed battery profiles. It can also be set to power supply mode with a fixed output voltage if required.
Will it work with a Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternator?
Yes. The Orion XS includes engine shutdown detection that only activates the charger when the alternator is supplying power, which makes it suitable for vehicles with smart alternators that supply a variable or low charging voltage.
How is it configured and monitored?
Through built-in Bluetooth Smart and the VictronConnect app on a smartphone, tablet or computer. It also has a VE.Direct port for a wired connection to a GX device for DVCC, monitoring and diagnostics, and supports VE.Smart Networking to receive voltage, temperature and current data from a compatible battery monitor.
What is the ingress protection rating?
The Orion XS 1400 is rated IP65, meaning it is dust-tight and protected against heavy rain. It is cooled by natural convection and has no cooling fan.
