Description
xVictron Orion-Tr 24/12-5 (60W) Non-Isolated DC-DC Converter
The Victron Orion-Tr 24/12-5 is a non-isolated DC-DC converter that steps down a 24V supply to a regulated 12V output at up to 5A (60W). It is designed for mobile, marine and off-grid applications where a stable 12V feed is required from a 24V battery or bus system.
Key Features
- 24V input to 12V output conversion at up to 5A continuous current (60W rated power).
- Non-isolated design provides efficient voltage conversion with a compact, lightweight form factor (90g).
- Wide input voltage range accommodates real-world battery voltage fluctuations on 24V systems.
- Output voltage is adjustable, allowing fine-tuning to suit specific load requirements.
- Suitable for powering 12V accessories, instruments or control circuits from a 24V vehicle or vessel electrical system.
- Compact enclosure designed for straightforward installation in tight spaces such as panel boards, lockers or equipment bays.
Product Overview
The Orion-Tr range from Victron Energy covers a broad set of DC-DC conversion requirements. The 24/12-5 variant addresses one of the most common needs in dual-voltage systems: running 12V loads from a 24V supply without a separate battery bank. This is particularly relevant in commercial vehicles, motorhomes, narrowboats and off-grid cabins where a 24V main system is paired with 12V ancillary equipment.
As a non-isolated converter, the Orion-Tr 24/12-5 shares a common ground between input and output. This is acceptable in most single-vehicle or single-vessel installations where the chassis or hull ground is common throughout. For applications requiring galvanic isolation between circuits, such as certain marine installations or multi-battery systems with separate grounds, the isolated variant of the Orion-Tr should be selected instead.
At 60W and 90g, this unit is one of the smaller converters in the Orion-Tr range. The adjustable output voltage allows the installer to set the output precisely, which is useful when compensating for cable voltage drop or when a load requires a specific supply voltage within the 12V range.

Installation Notes
This is a non-isolated converter with a shared common ground between input and output. Verify that a common ground configuration is appropriate for your installation before fitting. Input and output wiring should be correctly rated for the current involved and protected with appropriately sized fuses at the source. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person familiar with DC electrical systems. For marine installations, check whether galvanic isolation is required by your vessel's wiring standard before selecting this model.
