Can the XS be connected to a 12volt charging system and charge a 24 volt battery at 50 amps ?
The new Orion XS 1400 is limited to 50a input, and 50a output.
So, will that unit actually allow me to have a 12 volt input and a 24 volt output ? It say it’s programmable but doesn’t say if the input and the output have to be the same voltage
The data sheet gives the input and output voltage ranges.
Link as above.
The description on the product page says “mixed voltages”

Take a look in the demo library in VictronConnect.
thank you all for taking time to respond to this post
I found nothing in the demo library not even a photo of the Orion, but very nice videos with great music.
The advertising for XS 1400 says “connect any alternator to any battery” so I’m guessing a 12V alternator could charge a 24V battery via the XS 1400 if correctly configured.
12V input at 50A would obviously not give 50A out to a 24V load. Probably 24A at most given the claimed 98.5% efficiency.
thank you for the reply James, that’s what Im guessing as well, however,I was hoping to find someone who has actually done it and can confirm this works.I feel like more will be changing their solar systems to 24 volts but we are just not there yet.Thanks again and make it a great day.
