It is aimed at professional installers working on campervans, motorhomes, marine vessels and off-grid vehicles where two separate battery banks need to be managed independently. The unit delivers up to 30A (360W) of charge current and is controlled via Victron's VictronConnect app over Bluetooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30A maximum output current at 12V, giving a continuous charge power of 360W from a 24V input supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-isolated design: input and output share a common ground, which suits most vehicle and marine dual-battery installations where a shared chassis ground is already present.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBluetooth built-in: configure charge profiles, monitor status and update firmware directly from the VictronConnect app on iOS or Android, without additional hardware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports adaptive multi-stage charging (bulk, absorption, float) to suit lead-acid, AGM, gel and lithium (LiFePO4) battery chemistries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEngine detection feature: the charger can be configured to start only when the alternator is running, protecting the starter battery from being drained by the service bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo independent load outputs allow the unit to power additional 12V loads directly, not just charge a battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWide input voltage range accommodates fluctuating alternator voltages and varying system conditions without shutting down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with the VE.Direct port for integration with Victron GX devices and the Venus OS ecosystem.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orion-Tr Smart non-isolated range sits between basic voltage converters and fully isolated DC-DC chargers. Because the input and output share a common negative, the non-isolated version is only suitable where both battery banks share the same chassis or ground reference. In most 12V\/24V vehicle and marine installations this is the case, and the non-isolated design allows for a more compact and cost-effective unit without compromising charge performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe multi-stage charge algorithm is the key practical advantage over a simple DC-DC converter. A plain converter holds a fixed output voltage, which is not sufficient to properly charge a battery. The Orion-Tr Smart applies a full bulk, absorption and float sequence, meaning the service battery receives a proper charge cycle every time the vehicle is running. Charge parameters are fully adjustable via VictronConnect, including absorption voltage, float voltage and absorption time, so the unit can be tuned precisely to the battery chemistry installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe engine detection function monitors input voltage to determine whether the alternator is active. When the input voltage drops below a configurable threshold (indicating the engine has stopped), the charger shuts down automatically. This prevents the service battery from back-feeding into the starter battery and leaving the vehicle unable to start. For lithium service batteries in particular, this behaviour is important because lithium banks can draw high currents that would rapidly deplete a lead-acid starter battery if left connected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border: 2px solid #f87c24; border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f87c24; color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eORI241236140\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e12V\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eMaximum Output Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e30A\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eMaximum Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e360W\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eIsolation\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eNon-isolated (common ground)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eBluetooth (VictronConnect), VE.Direct\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eCompatible Battery Chemistries\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eLead-acid, AGM, Gel, LiFePO4\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e1.8 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGTIN\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #f87c24; padding: 8px;\"\u003e8719076048978\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging a 12V leisure or service battery from a 24V vehicle electrical system in motorhomes and campervans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine dual-battery installations where the main bank is 24V and a 12V service bank powers lighting, pumps or electronics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid vehicles and expedition builds requiring reliable, programmable battery-to-battery charging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTruck and HGV auxiliary power systems where a 24V chassis supply needs to charge a separate 12V equipment battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegration into Victron GX-based monitoring systems via VE.Direct for centralised data logging and control.\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-Tr Smart 24\/12-30A (360W) Non-Isolated DC-DC Charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit is non-isolated and requires a common negative ground between the input (24V) and output (12V) battery banks. Do not use this model in installations where the two battery systems are electrically isolated from one another; use the isolated Orion-Tr Smart variant instead. Wiring must be correctly rated for the maximum current draw and protected with appropriately sized fuses on both the input and output sides. Installation should be carried out by a qualified auto-electrician or marine electrical engineer. For lithium battery installations, verify that the battery BMS is compatible with the charge profile configured in VictronConnect before commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59866756153678,"sku":"ORI241236140","price":158.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_ORI241236140_-_Orion-Tr_Smart_24-12-30A_360W_Non-isolated_DC-DC_charger.webp?v=1781200418","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-orion-tr-smart-24-12-30a-360w-non-isolated-dc-dc-charger","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
