Page 3: General Description
Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated 1. General Description The Orion Smart DC-DC chargers are specially developed DC-DC converters for controlled charging or fixed output mode. In charger mode the three-state charge algorithm will increase battery life by properly charging the battery. Especially in the case of vehicles with an alternator smart control, or voltage drop caused by long cable runs, controlled charging is indispensable. -

Page 6: Installation
Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated 4. Installation 4.1. General • Mount vertically on a non-flammable surface, with the power terminals facing downwards. Observe a minimum clearance of 10 cm under and above the product for optimal cooling. • Mount close to the battery, but never directly above the battery (in order to prevent damage due to gassing of the battery). 4.2. -

Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated Figure 2: Typical connection setup as charger 4.4. Connection remote on-off The recommended use of the remote on-off is: a) A switch wired between the L-H pins (On-level impedance between L-H pins: < 500kΩ) b) A switch wired between (input/starter) battery plus and H-pin (on level: > 3V) c) A switch between the L-pin and (input/starter) ground (on level: <... -
Page 8: Engine Shutdown Detection Override
Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated 4.5. Engine shutdown detection override In charger mode the “engine shutdown detection sequence” determines if conditions are met to enable charging, see chapter 5. The “engine shutdown detection override” forces the charger to allow charging independently of the engine shutdown detection. Engine shutdown detection override is activated by applying >7V to the remote L-pin. -
Page 9: Cable And Fuse Recommendations
Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated When the engine shutdown detection has been switched off in Victron Connect (‘forced charging’) current will be drawn from the starter battery even if the engine is not running. During ‘forced charging’ the input voltage lockout is the only limit left to disable charging automatically, make sure this level is not set too low, in most applications 12.5V is sufficiently low. -
Page 10: Engine Shuthown Detection
Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated 5. Engine shuthown detection The engine shutdown detection mechanism simplifies your ORION-Tr DC-DC Charger system by detecting if the engine is running without wiring additional switches or sensors. The factory default setting will work with most regular and smart alternators but can be re-configured with the VictronConnect App. -

Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated 5.2. Engine shutdown detection setup with VictronConnect Open VictronConnect and press the Cog symbol to enter the settings. Figure 9: Engine shutdown detection setup menu The following settings can be changed with VictronConnect: The default values displayed are for the 12V input models. Those values are scaled depending on the input voltage of the model. - Page 12 Orion-Tr DC-DC Smart Charger Non-Isolated If the low voltage period exceeds tshutdown charging will be disabled on engine shutdown detection. • Voltage drop across the input cable: As seen in “engine shutdown detection sequence 1→3”, V will be lowered by Vcable. When the alternator voltage drops fast (smart alternator) the charge-control needs some time to reduce charge current and keep V at V...
