The Victron Orion XS 12/12-70A DC-DC Battery Charger is a high-performance non-isolated DC-DC charger engineered for dual-battery systems in RVs, camper vans, boats, and commercial vehicles. Delivering up to 70A of charging current and 1000W of continuous output power, it provides reliable, efficient charging for auxiliary batteries while protecting the starter battery in systems equipped with conventional or smart alternators.
Engineered from the ground up, the Orion XS redefines adaptive DC-DC battery charging. Designed for vehicles with conventional or intelligent alternators, it compensates for voltage drops caused by long cable runs and ensures the auxiliary battery receives precise, controlled charging while protecting the starter battery from excessive discharge.
Integrated engine shutdown detection automatically activates the charger only when the alternator is supplying power, making it an excellent solution for modern Euro 5 and Euro 6 vehicles equipped with smart alternators.
The Orion XS features an adaptive 4-stage charging algorithm that automatically adjusts absorption time according to the battery's depth of discharge. It includes eight pre-programmed battery settings and fully programmable charging parameters through the VictronConnect App for maximum installation flexibility.
Built-in Bluetooth Smart allows wireless configuration, monitoring, diagnostics, and firmware updates using the VictronConnect App. The Orion XS also supports VE.Smart Networking for wireless battery voltage, temperature, and current sensing, while the VE.Direct port enables integration with Victron GX devices for advanced monitoring and remote diagnostics.
Multiple Orion XS chargers can be connected in parallel to increase total charging capacity, making the system easily expandable for larger installations.
Important: The Orion XS 12/12-70A has an IP20 protection rating and is intended for installation in a dry indoor environment.
Warranty: 5-Year Victron Energy Warranty.
