For use in dual battery systems charged with an (intelligent) alternator. This device not only ensures top-tier performance but also guarantees the safety of your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orion XS serves as a DC-DC battery charger or as a power supply, offering a wide input and output voltage range. This is especially significant in the case of vehicles with a Euro 5 or Euro 6 smart alternator, which often supplies too low charging voltage even when the engine is running or when extended cable lengths, as is often the case in boats and RVs, lead to voltage drops. In such scenarios, precise and controlled charging is imperative to fully charge the service battery while protecting the starter\/input battery from discharge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#c0392b;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable charging current\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe charge current is adjustable from 1 to 70 A with a minimum stepsize of 0.1 A via VictronConnect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#c0392b;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSmart alternator compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn integrated mechanism detects whether the engine is running (engine shutdown detection), which only activates the charger when the alternator supplies power.
