The Victron Orion-Tr Smart 12/12-30A is an isolated DC-DC charger that converts power from a 12V alternator or battery bank to charge a 12V auxiliary battery. It is used in vehicles, boats and off-grid installations. It charges in three stages: Bulk, Absorption and Float.
It delivers 30A of continuous current, with a peak output of 40A for short surges. Galvanic isolation up to 200V DC between input, output and case protects against ground loops and voltage spikes. Built-in Bluetooth lets you configure and monitor the charger and update its firmware through the VictronConnect app.
Charge profiles can be programmed for AGM, Gel, Flooded and Lithium batteries. Engine detection prevents the starter battery from being drained when the engine is off, and the charger works with Euro 5/6 smart alternators. A remote on/off terminal connects to a battery management system or a manual switch, and units can be run in parallel for higher current. Protection is provided against short circuit, over-temperature and reverse polarity.
