Frequently Asked Question
The Victron Orion XS 12/12-50A is a high-efficiency, non-isolated DC-DC battery charger designed for dual-battery systems, offering adaptive charging, Bluetooth connectivity, and robust protection features
Input Voltage Range: 9-17V --- Output Voltage Range: 10-17V (adjustable) --- Max Output Current: 50A --- Efficiency: Up to 98.5% --- IP Rating: IP65 (dustproof and waterproof) --- Operating Temp: -20°C to +60°C (derating above 40°C)
Adaptive Charging Algorithms: Supports multiple battery types with customizable settings --- Parallel Scalability: Multiple units can be paralleled for higher output --- Bluetooth Smart & VE.Direct: Enables monitoring and configuration via the VictronConnect App or GX devices --- Smart Alternator Compatibility: Works with Euro 5/6 engines
The charger offers overload, short-circuit, over-temperature protection, low-temperature shutdown, and input undervoltage protection to safeguard batteries and the system
Yes, it delivers up to 50A (700W) continuously at temperatures up to 40°C without derating, thanks to its aluminum PCB cooling technology
Configuration is done via the VictronConnect App or VE.Direct port. Input/output currents are adjustable in 0.1A increments for precise control
Yes, it is fully compatible with smart alternators found in Euro 5/6 engines. It can handle variable voltage outputs and ensures proper charging of the auxiliary battery even when the alternator output drops.
The Orion XS supports multiple battery chemistries, including: Lead-acid (AGM, Gel, Flooded) Lithium-ion (LiFePO4) The charging profile is adjustable via the VictronConnect app.
No, this specific model (12/12-50A) is designed for 12V to 12V systems. For 24V systems, you would need an appropriate Victron Orion model designed for those voltages.
No, the "XS" model is non-isolated, meaning the input and output share a common ground. If isolation is required, consider other models like the Victron Orion-Tr Isolated series.
Yes, fuses are required on both input and output lines to protect against overcurrent or short circuit.
Yes, multiple Orion XS units can be connected in parallel to increase output current capacity. Ensure all units are configured identically for proper operation.
Yes, it has an ignition sensing feature that allows it to turn on/off automatically when the vehicle’s engine is running.
You can monitor real-time performance data such as input/output voltage, current, and temperature using: The VictronConnect App via Bluetooth Smart or VE.Direct cable connection. A GX device like Cerbo GX for advanced monitoring and remote access.
The Orion XS DC-DC charger is ideal for applications such as: Motorhome's and campervans with dual-battery systems (starter + leisure batteries). Marine setups with house batteries charged from an engine alternator. Off-grid solar systems where batteries need regulated charging from other DC sources.
No regular maintenance is required apart from ensuring clean connections and checking for any signs of corrosion or damage periodically.
No, this model is not designed for direct solar panel input; you would need a solar charge controller like the Victron SmartSolar MPPT series for that purpose. This comprehensive Q&A should cover most technical aspects of the Victron Orion XS DC-DC Charger! Let me know if you'd like further clarification on any specific topic.
