  • Remote on-off removes the need for a high-current input switch
  • Adjustable output allows use as a battery charger in mixed-voltage systems
  • circuit proof and parallelable for unlimited current scaling
  • IP43 rating when installed with terminals facing downwards
  • Screw terminals enable tool-free installation

What this converter does

The Victron Energy Orion 12/24-10 is a non-isolated DC-DC converter that steps a 12 V supply up to 24 V at up to 10 A. It is intended for mobile or off-grid systems that need a 24 V bus or want to charge a 12 V auxiliary battery from a 24 V source. The unit is rated IP20 for indoor use and carries California Proposition 65 notices for listed chemicals.

Before you connect it

Verify that your source can deliver the required 12 V input current and that the 24 V output voltage suits every downstream device. The adjustable output can be set for battery charging, so confirm the target voltage before powering loads. The remote on-off terminal uses a low-power signal, so plan a suitable switch or engine-run feed. Install with screw terminals facing downwards if you need the IP43 rating.

Heat noise and power

The converter is short-circuit proof and can be paralleled with an unlimited number of identical units to share load current. Input fuse protection is fitted on the 12 V and 24 V models. No fan is present, so operation is silent; thermal performance depends on free air flow around the case.

Questions about this item

Does the Orion 12/24-10 come with cables or mounting hardware, or do I need to buy them separately?

The converter has screw terminals that need no special tools; cables, lugs and mounting fixings are not included and must be sourced separately.

How do I decide between the 12 V to 24 V model and other voltage combinations in the Orion range?

Choose this unit when the source is a 12 V system and the load or battery bank is 24 V; other input/output pairs require a different Orion model.

What does the 10 A rating mean when the converter is powering a 24 V battery bank in a vehicle?

It delivers up to 10 A continuously at the adjustable 24 V output, is short-circuit proof, and multiple units can be paralleled for higher current.
