It is designed for professional vehicle, marine and off-grid installations where a 24V system bus needs to supply 12V loads without a separate battery bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-isolated step-down (buck) converter: 24V input to 12V output at up to 30A continuous current.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP20 protection rating: suitable for installation in enclosed, dry equipment bays and control panels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.7 kg, making it straightforward to mount in space-constrained installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFixed output voltage of 12V, providing a stable supply for 12V accessories, lighting, control circuits and ancillary loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-isolated topology delivers high efficiency with minimal heat generation compared to linear regulators.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVictron Orion range: a well-established product line with a broad install base across marine, vehicle and off-grid applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orion 24\/12-30 uses a non-isolated buck converter topology to step down a 24V DC supply to a regulated 12V output. Non-isolated converters share a common ground between input and output, which is acceptable in the majority of vehicle and marine installations where the chassis or hull forms a shared negative. The 30A output rating gives a maximum output power of 360W, sufficient to run a substantial 12V load from a 24V system bus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the converter is non-isolated, it is not suitable for applications where input and output circuits must be kept electrically separate. In those cases, Victron's isolated Orion-Tr range would be the appropriate choice. For standard 24V-to-12V step-down duties in a shared-ground system, the non-isolated design is the more efficient and cost-effective option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe IP20 rating means the unit is protected against solid objects greater than 12mm but carries no water or dust ingress protection. It must be installed in a dry, enclosed location such as a battery compartment, equipment locker or control panel enclosure. It is not suitable for direct exposure to moisture, spray or condensation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: ORI241230022\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput voltage: 24V DC (nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput voltage: 12V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput current: 30A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum output power: 360W\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTopology: Non-isolated (buck)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtection rating: IP20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076069591\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupplying 12V accessories and control circuits from a 24V vehicle or truck electrical system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowering 12V loads aboard vessels with a 24V DC house bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and installations with a 24V battery system requiring a 12V sub-circuit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTelecom and industrial enclosures where a 24V bus feeds 12V control or communications equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorhomes and coaches with a 24V chassis system needing a regulated 12V auxiliary supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 x Victron Orion 24\/12-30 non-isolated DC-DC converter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit must be installed in a dry, enclosed location in line with its IP20 rating. Ensure input wiring is correctly fused close to the source battery or busbar. The non-isolated design requires a shared negative (common ground) between the 24V input and 12V output circuits. It is not suitable for applications requiring galvanic isolation. Installation should be carried out by a qualified 12\/24V DC systems installer familiar with vehicle, marine or off-grid wiring practices. Verify that cable sizing is appropriate for the 30A output current and that adequate ventilation is provided around the unit to allow heat dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59866755989838,"sku":"ORI241230022","price":49.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_ORI241230022_-_Orion_24-12-30_DC-DC_converter_IP20.webp?v=1781200409","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-orion-24-12-30-dc-dc-converter-ip20","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
