Solar Converters Eq 24/48-30A, 24/48 Up/Down Converters

Model: EQ 24/48-30

Solar Converters Inc.
EQ 24/48-30 Battery Equalizer,
DC Autotransformer,
Up/Down Voltage Converter

This unit is an up or down voltage converter whose output is proportional to its input. It functions both ways, producing 24 V @ 30 Amps from a 48 V input or can be connected backwards to produce 48 V @ 15 Amps from a 12 V input.Also, regulated models are available to produce a fixed output voltage instead of the proprotional output. For example, Model EQ 24/48-25 R27 produces a fixed 27 V output at 30 amps from a 48 V nominal battery source.When connected across a 48 V battery, it functions as a battery equalizer, allowing loads to be taken off of the 24 V battery section of a 48 V battery pack without fear of damage to the battery pack due to voltage mismatch.

Features

• >95 % efficiency, typically 96 % over 20 % load
• Bi-directional power flow
• Weatherproof, NEMA 3R enclosure
• Simple to use

This standard unit regulates the output voltage proportional to 1/2 the input when connected 48 V input and regulates the output to 2 X input when connected 24 V input. This characteristic, when connected across 2 X 24 V batteries in a 48 V configuration, will keep the batteries at equal voltages.

Special units are available for example EQ 24/48-30 RXX where XX is the voltage on the 24 V side that the voltage is to be regulated to. For example, EQ 24/48-30 R27 will output 27 V @ 30 amps to either power a 24 V load or charge a 24 V battery to 27 V.

Note: For units that require a fixed voltage at the higher voltage output, for example, to charge a 48 V battery from a 24 V battery, use one of the Constant Voltage Regulators

Special Shipping Note:
All Solar Converter Products are behind in production. These items are usually shipped directly from the manufacturer in Canada. They cannot be shipped by any expedited methods such as UPS Blue or Red. They will generally be shipped via Canadian Express Mail which avoids import brokerage fees of $50-$60. Lead time on these products may be up to 4-6 weeks depending on their production. This is true of all Solar Converters products with the exception of the battery desulphator (item code SORBD-2) that we stock in our warehouse. If you want Solar Converters products to be shipped by normal Canadian Post, but would prefer to have the rest of your order to be shipped by a faster method, please write this information in your order's notes during checkout.
