It is designed for professional installations where a 24V system needs to power 12V loads or charge a 12V auxiliary battery. Typical applications include commercial vehicles, marine vessels, and off-grid systems with mixed-voltage architectures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-isolated 24V to 12V DC-DC conversion with up to 80A continuous output current.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP20 rated enclosure, suitable for installation in protected indoor or cabinet environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh conversion efficiency, minimising heat generation and reducing the load on the source battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight design at 0.9kg, making it straightforward to mount in tight spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide input voltage tolerance accommodates real-world 24V system fluctuations without shutting down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with Victron's broader ecosystem of battery monitors, inverters and charge controllers for integrated system design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orion 24\/12-80 operates as a non-isolated buck converter, meaning the input and output share a common ground. This is an important distinction for system designers: non-isolated converters are efficient and cost-effective but require careful attention to grounding in the installation. Where galvanic isolation between circuits is required, a different converter variant should be selected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 80A output, this unit can deliver up to approximately 960W of 12V power from a 24V source. This makes it well suited to supplying substantial 12V loads such as lighting circuits, pumps, winches, or a secondary 12V battery in a dual-voltage vehicle or vessel. The IP20 rating means the unit must be installed in a dry, enclosed location away from moisture, dust ingress and direct exposure to the elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVictron's Orion range is widely used by professional installers across the marine, automotive and off-grid sectors. The 24\/12-80 sits at the higher end of the non-isolated range, providing a meaningful step up in output capacity compared to smaller models in the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: ORI241280020\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput voltage: 24V DC (nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput voltage: 12V DC (nominal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput current: 80A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConverter type: Non-isolated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP rating: IP20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.9kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076069614\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowering 12V loads from a 24V house battery bank in motorhomes, coaches or HGVs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging a 12V auxiliary battery from a 24V primary bank on marine vessels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupplying 12V control circuits or accessories in off-grid cabins and industrial installations with 24V DC infrastructure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-voltage systems where a 24V inverter or battery bank needs to feed legacy 12V equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTelecom and remote monitoring enclosures requiring a regulated 12V rail from a 24V 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\u003e1x Victron Orion 24\/12-80 DC-DC Converter (IP20)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis converter must be installed in a dry, ventilated, enclosed location in line with its IP20 rating.
