The non-isolated version is a little easier to install since you only need to run a DC+ cable from the vehicle battery to the Orion DC-DC charger and the ground uses the chassis which is connected to your house power system negative bus bar through the chassis ground on the Lynx Distributor in our example wiring diagram. On the isolated versions, you need both the DC+ and the DC-.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the \"isolated\" and \"non-isolated\" Orion DC-DC chargers will keep the two battery systems separate (won't charge) unless it believes the vehicle is running using the \"engine detection\" feature that basically monitors the voltage on the vehicle battery side of the unit and, when it goes up to over 14 volts, that's the signal that the vehicle is running and it can start charging the house batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat they mean by \"isolated\" is that negative connections are isolated from each other and in the \"non-isolated\" version the negative is common\/shared on the input and the output. This is mostly important when you have sensitive equipment in your system such as radios\/etc. in a marine environment.

The non-isolated version is a little easier to install since you only need to run a DC+ cable from the vehicle battery to the Orion DC-DC charger and the ground uses the chassis which is connected to your house power system negative bus bar through the chassis ground on the Lynx Distributor in our example wiring diagram. On the isolated versions, you need both the DC+ and the DC-.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the \"isolated\" and \"non-isolated\" Orion DC-DC chargers will keep the two battery systems separate (won't charge) unless it believes the vehicle is running using the \"engine detection\" feature that basically monitors the voltage on the vehicle battery side of the unit and, when it goes up to over 14 volts, that's the signal that the vehicle is running and it can start charging the house batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat they mean by \"isolated\" is that negative connections are isolated from each other and in the \"non-isolated\" version the negative is common\/shared on the input and the output. This is mostly important when you have sensitive equipment in your system such as radios\/etc. in a marine environment.

Provided there is over 13.2V on the leisure battery (13.5V if lithium) and the starter battery is below 13V the BB shall allow approximately half current to flow back to the starter battery up to about 13.4V (float voltage). It simply allows the starter battery to remain topped up when there is surplus energy in the domestic battery. This feature will NOT drain your domestic battery - it simply takes surplus. Once your alternator \/ engine turns on or you provide the BB with an ignition signal the BB reverts to normal charging of the leisure battery.

For example, you can parallel a BB1240 with a BB12120 to get 160A of charge current. Likewise, two BB1270 units for 140 amps total or two BB12120 units for total of 240 amps directed to house bank charging from one alternator or two alternators as input sources is a common application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Redundancy, having multiple DC-DC chargers can help with redundancy.

As each BB has 3 different power levels, adding multiple BBs together gives you 6, 9, 12 etc.. different power levels. For example, if you wanted 90A you could get a BB1270 and a BB1240 and set the power levels to 85% each via the BBR remote (to give you approximately 90A).

Examples of why you may wish to reduce performance:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) if you have solar panels and the weather is good, by reducing the power of the BB, you shall conserve fuel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2) The alternator is better suited running at slightly lower current than what was expected or you don't want the alternator to work as hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3) It may be recommended by your battery supplier to charge the battery up at a slightly lower current.

Thus, giving you large levels of flexibility to hone in to a specific charge current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Current Limit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe default current setting for the BB range is 100% - meaning that the performance default is full power.

The non-isolated version is a little easier to install since you only need to run a DC+ cable from the vehicle battery to the Orion DC-DC charger and the ground uses the chassis which is connected to your house power system negative bus bar through the chassis ground on the Lynx Distributor in our example wiring diagram. On the isolated versions, you need both the DC+ and the DC-.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the \"isolated\" and \"non-isolated\" Orion DC-DC chargers will keep the two battery systems separate (won't charge) unless it believes the vehicle is running using the \"engine detection\" feature that basically monitors the voltage on the vehicle battery side of the unit and, when it goes up to over 14 volts, that's the signal that the vehicle is running and it can start charging the house batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat they mean by \"isolated\" is that negative connections are isolated from each other and in the \"non-isolated\" version the negative is common\/shared on the input and the output. This is mostly important when you have sensitive equipment in your system such as radios\/etc. in a marine environment. In a vehicle installation, everything is eventually grounded to the chassis and therefore there is no way to actually isolate the grounds. If you have a vehicle towing a trailer\/RV where there are two chassis that's another scenario where you could benefit from \"isolated\" DC-DC chargers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother situation where ground isolation is helpful is when you are working with sensitive electronic equipment like radios, high-end audio, etc. and are using the \"power supply\" mode instead of the \"charger\" mode.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47626903486654,"sku":"ORI121221040","price":395.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/6359\/2382\/files\/Orion_XS_12-12-70A_top.png?v=1781295246"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/6359\/2382\/collections\/cat_03.png?v=1761858771","url":"https:\/\/www.vanlifeoutfitters.com\/collections\/dc-dc-chargers-converters.oembed?page=2","provider":"Vanlife Outfitters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
