VICTRON ENERGY Orion XS 12/12-70A Non-Isolated DC-DC Battery Charger – ORI121221040

Description

VICTRON ENERGY Orion XS 12/12-70A Non-Isolated DC-DC Battery Charger – ORI121221040

The Orion XS 12/12-70A is designed for modern dual-battery installations that need controlled, programmable charging from an engine alternator. It is well suited to marine and mobile systems with smart alternators, lithium house banks or charging requirements that exceed what a simple voltage-sensitive relay can safely manage.

• Up to 70A of controlled 12V-to-12V DC charging for high-demand auxiliary or house battery banks.
• Engine shutdown detection allows automatic charging control without a separate external engine-run sensor in typical installations.
• Compatible with smart alternators and uses a multi-stage charging algorithm for managed battery charging.
• VE.Direct connectivity supports integration with compatible Victron GX systems and DVCC operation.
• High-efficiency power conversion, programmable operation and parallel capability make it suitable for scalable charging systems.

Use the Orion XS where alternator protection, battery-specific charge control and system visibility matter. Cable sizing, fusing, ventilation and programming should be selected for the installation and battery chemistry rather than treating the charger as a drop-in relay replacement.
