It suits mobile, marine and off-grid systems that need a stable 24V supply drawn from a 12V battery bank, and its IP20 rating means it belongs inside a dry, protected enclosure rather than an exposed location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage conversion\u003c\/strong\u003e, 12V nominal input stepped up to 24V output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput current\u003c\/strong\u003e, up to 8A continuous.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopology\u003c\/strong\u003e, non-isolated, so input and output share a common negative.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection rating\u003c\/strong\u003e, IP20, for installation in cabinets, panels or enclosed compartments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 0.182 kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number\u003c\/strong\u003e, ORI122408020, GTIN 8719076022732.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the design is non-isolated, input and output share a common ground reference. That keeps the unit efficient and compact, but it is not the right choice where galvanic isolation between circuits is required; Victron's isolated Orion-Tr range covers that case instead. The IP20 enclosure protects against solid objects larger than 12.5mm only, with no protection against moisture, so it needs a dry switchboard, control cabinet or ventilated battery compartment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis converter is used to power 24V auxiliary loads, motors or lighting circuits from a 12V vehicle or marine battery bank, without running a separate 24V battery system. Typical settings include off-grid cabins, campervans, motorhomes, commercial vehicles, boats with a 12V house bank feeding a 24V circuit, and industrial control panels needing a 24V supply derived from 12V.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit the converter in a dry, protected enclosure away from moisture and condensation, with adequate ventilation to manage heat during continuous operation. As input and output share a common negative, this must be accounted for in the wiring design. Connection work should be carried out by a qualified electrician or a competent installer familiar with DC power systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1x Victron Orion 12\/24-8 DC-DC Converter (IP20)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095603409184,"sku":"ORI122408020","price":43.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-ori122408020-1.webp?v=1785755107","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/dc-dc-converter-victron-orion-12-24-8","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
