The Victron Orion 48/12-60 is a heavy-duty, non-isolated DC-DC converter engineered to seamlessly step down 48V power sources to a highly stable 12V output. Delivering a continuous current of up to 60A, it is the ultimate solution for powering 12-volt equipment in telecommunications, off-grid solar systems, electric vehicles, and marine applications.
Key Advantages
- High Output Capacity: Provides a continuous 60A output current.
- Adjustable Output: Voltage can be precision-tuned between 10V and 15V (factory default is 13.2V).
- Wide Input Range: Operates flawlessly on input voltages from 38V to 66V.
- Exceptional Efficiency: High energy conversion rate with a 92% efficiency.
- Scalability: Supports parallel connection of up to five units to multiply total current capacity.
- Active Cooling: Equipped with a built-in temperature-controlled fan for optimal thermal management.
- Battery Charger Mode: Fully functional as a reliable buffer charger for batteries.
Technical Specifications & Protection
- Voltage Monitoring: Auto-shutdown triggers when input drops to 38V, with automatic restart at 40V.
- Operating Temperature: Functional from -20°C to +55°C (power derates by 3% for every degree above +40°C).
- Physical Specs: Ultra-low no-load current (< 20mA), compact dimensions (65x88x195 mm), lightweight (0.9 kg), and robust M6 bolt DC connections.
Control Interfaces
- Remote ON/OFF: Can be controlled remotely via a low-power switch or engine run relay, eliminating the need for a high-current switch in the input wiring.
- Built-in Potentiometer: Allows for exact manual calibration of the output voltage.
Primary Applications
- Telecom & IT: Powering 12V servers, routers, and communication hubs from a standard 48V telecom bus.
- Off-Grid Solar: Converting 48V battery bank power to run standard 12V appliances and electronics.
- E-Mobility & Golf Carts: Supplying power to 12V lighting and auxiliary systems from a 48V traction battery.
- Marine Systems: Ensuring reliable 12V power for navigation and communication equipment on vessels.
