Designed by Victron Energy, this converter is engineered for demanding environments, making it ideal for marine, automotive, industrial, and off-grid applications where a constant 12V supply is needed from a 24V system. Its completely encapsulated design ensures protection against water, dust, oil, and shock. This model is a non-isolated converter, meaning the input and output share a common negative connection. This design is highly efficient and suitable for systems where the 24V source and 12V load already share a common ground, such as a vehicle chassis. It functions as a dedicated power supply for 12V loads, providing a constant voltage output, and is not intended for multi-stage battery charging. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a DC/DC Converter for powering loads, not a multi-stage battery charger. It is Not Isolated, requiring a common ground between input and output. Key Features ▶ IP67 Encapsulated Design — Completely waterproof, shockproof, and ignition protected, with a cast aluminium casing and resin-moulded electronics for extreme durability. ▶ Wide Input Voltage Range — Ensures a stable 12V output from a 15V to 40V DC input, effectively managing voltage surges or sags from other connected equipment. ▶ High Output Power — Delivers a continuous 20A (240W) at 12V, capable of powering multiple 12V accessories simultaneously. ▶ Extra-Long Cables — Features 1.8-meter input and output cables, reducing the need for intermediate connections and enhancing overall system reliability. ▶ Overheating Protection — Designed to operate reliably in hot environments, such as machine rooms, without performance degradation. ▶ Short Circuit Proof — Integrated protection against short circuits for enhanced safety and longevity of the unit and connected devices. ▶ High Efficiency — Achieves up to 93% efficiency, minimising energy loss during conversion.

It's crucial to understand its role as a converter for loads, not a charger for batteries. Input Voltage: Requires a nominal 24V DC system, accepting a wide range from 15V to 40V DC. Output Voltage: Provides a regulated 12V DC output, suitable for powering standard 12V appliances and electronics. Grounding: As a non-isolated unit, it shares a common negative/ground connection between the 24V input and 12V output. Ensure your system design accommodates this. Fusing: An external fuse is required on the positive input cable for protection. A 15A fuse is recommended for this 20A model. Cooling: The unit features convection cooling, meaning it operates without a fan, contributing to its sealed and robust design. Typical Applications Application Description Marine & Boating Powering 12V navigation electronics, radios, and accessories from a 24V boat battery bank in wet bilge or engine room environments. Automotive (Heavy Duty) Converting 24V truck, bus, or heavy equipment systems to 12V for powering cab accessories, lighting, and communication devices. Off-Grid & Remote Systems Providing stable 12V power from 24V solar battery banks in exposed or harsh outdoor installations. Industrial Equipment Supplying 12V power to control systems, sensors, or other components in dusty, wet, or vibration-prone industrial settings. Built-In Protection Functions The Victron Orion IP67 DC/DC Converter incorporates multiple safety features to protect itself and your connected equipment. These include: Short Circuit Protection • Overheating Protection • Input Under-Voltage Shutdown • Output Over-Voltage Protection • Reverse Polarity Protection • IP67 Environmental Protection (Dustproof and protected against temporary immersion in water). Common Questions What does \"Not isolated\" mean for this converter? \"Not isolated\" signifies that the input (24V) and output (12V) share a common negative/ground connection. This is suitable for systems where both the power source and the load are already grounded together, such as in many vehicle electrical systems. Can this converter be used in wet or dusty environments? Absolutely. With an IP67 rating, the Victron Orion IP67 converter is completely encapsulated, making it dustproof, waterproof (protected against immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes), shockproof, and ignition protected. It's built for harsh conditions. Is this a battery charger? No, this unit is a DC/DC converter, not a battery charger. It provides a constant 12V output to power 12V loads from a 24V source. For charging a 12V battery from a 24V system, Victron offers specific DC/DC battery chargers like the Orion-Tr Smart series. What fuse size is recommended for installation? Victron Energy recommends a 15A fuse for the positive input cable of the 24/12-20A model to ensure proper protection. Installation Notes Ensure the input voltage from your 24V DC source is within the specified 15-40V DC range. Connect the negative cables (black) first to the supply and then to the load. A poor negative connection can lead to output overvoltage. Connect the load output (yellow) to your 12V DC load. Connect the positive input (red) to your 24V DC supply. This positive input must be protected by an external fuse; a 15A fuse is recommended for this model. Confirm that your system's 24V source and 12V load share a common negative ground, as this is a non-isolated converter. Mount the converter in a location that allows for adequate heat dissipation, even though it is protected against overheating. All electrical connections should be made by a qualified professional in accordance with local wiring regulations and safety standards. Before You Buy Verify System Grounding: Confirm your system requires a \"not isolated\" DC/DC converter, meaning your 24V source and 12V load share a common negative ground. If galvanic isolation is needed, an isolated converter is required. Confirm Voltage Requirements: Ensure your input is a nominal 24V DC system and your connected devices require a stable 12V DC output. Check Power Needs: Confirm the 20A (240W) continuous output is sufficient for the total power draw of all your connected 12V devices. Consider Environmental Factors: While IP67 rated, consider the ambient temperature and ensure adequate ventilation for optimal performance and longevity.
