Detailed description

Designed to provide stable 12 V DC power from a 12 V source, the Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A (ORI121210110) is a power conditioning solution. This isolated DC-DC converter delivers continuous power of 110 W at 25 °C and an output current of 9 A at a nominal voltage of 12.2 V. Its input voltage range of 8 to 17 V ensures reliable operation even with voltage variations in the main power system.

Technical Features and Versatility

The Orion Tr 12/12-9A features an adjustable output voltage between 10 and 15 V, allowing it to be used as a battery charger for dedicated 12 V batteries. The remote on/off function simplifies integration into complex systems, eliminating the need for a high-current switch. The device is protected against short circuits and includes a non-replaceable internal fuse for safety. Its ability to be connected in parallel allows increasing the total output current for applications requiring more power. Compared to higher-power Orion Tr models (e.g., 220 W or 280 W versions), the 12/12-9A is suited to installations with lower power consumption or where paralleling multiple units is preferred for increased modularity.

Integration and Compliance

With compact dimensions of 100 x 113 x 47 mm and a weight of 0.42 kg, this converter is installed via screw terminals, simplifying wiring. The 200 V DC galvanic isolation between input, output, and case provides essential electrical separation for protecting sensitive equipment and preventing ground loops. The Orion Tr 12/12-9A complies with EN 60950, EN 61000-6-3, EN 55014-1, EN 61000-6-2, EN 61000-6-1, EN 55014-2, and ECE R10-5 standards, attesting to its reliability and electromagnetic compatibility. Its operating temperature range is from -20 to +55 °C, with a 3 % current reduction per °C above 40 °C. The protection rating is IP20, but can reach IP43 when installed with screw terminals facing downward.

« Orion Tr 12/12-9A: galvanic isolation for 12V marine systems »

The Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A converter is a fundamental component for onboard energy management, particularly on medium-sized sailboats and motorboats requiring dedicated and stable 12V power. Its galvanic isolation function is a major advantage, enabling the creation of separate electrical networks. This is crucial for preventing electromagnetic interference, ground loops, and protecting sensitive electronic equipment (navigation, communication) from disturbances originating in other circuits (engine, services).

Unlike non-isolated Orion models, this Tr model provides increased safety for installations where ground separation is mandatory. It is ideal for powering specific equipment, maintaining the charge of a 12V auxiliary battery from the main 12V circuit, or stabilizing a voltage prone to drops. For example, it can ensure a constant voltage for a navigation system even when the service battery voltage fluctuates.

Installation is straightforward thanks to screw terminals and the remote on/off function, which allows easy control via a low-power switch or engine command. It is important to note that its IP20 protection rating requires mounting in a dry, protected compartment, although it can reach IP43 if the terminals are oriented downward. For power requirements above 110W, consider Victron Energy’s higher-power isolated Orion Tr models (220W, 280W) or parallel connection of multiple units of this model, a feature supported by Victron Energy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the primary function of the Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A converter?

The Victron Energy Orion TR 12/12-9A converter is designed to provide a stable, isolated 12 V DC output from a 12 V power source. It is a power conditioning solution that ensures a constant output voltage even when input voltage fluctuates.

What are the input and output voltages of this converter?

This converter has an input voltage range of 8 to 17 V. Its nominal output voltage is 12.2 V, adjustable between 10 and 15 V.

What is the continuous output power of the Orion TR 12/12-9A?

The Orion Tr 12/12-9A converter delivers a continuous output power of 110 W at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. At 40 °C, the continuous output power is 85 W.

Can this converter be used to charge a battery?

Yes, the Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A output voltage is adjustable between 10 and 15 V, allowing it to be used as a 12 V battery charger for dedicated 12 V batteries.

What is the efficiency of this converter?

The efficiency of this converter is 87%.

What is the operating temperature range of this device?

The operating temperature range of the Orion Tr 12/12-9A converter is -20 to 55 °C. Note that a 3 % power reduction applies per degree Celsius above 40 °C.

What is the ingress protection (IP) rating of this converter? Is it waterproof?

This converter has an IP20 protection rating. This means it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm, but it is not protected against water. It is therefore not waterproof and must be installed in a dry environment.

Does the Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A converter provide galvanic isolation?

Yes, this converter provides 200 V DC galvanic isolation between the input, output, and case. This isolation is essential for protecting sensitive equipment and preventing ground loops.

What are the dimensions and weight of the Victron Energy Orion Tr 12/12-9A?
