Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can this converter handle long-term 5A loads?

Yes, the unit is rated for continuous 5A output (60W). For best performance, ensure proper ventilation and wire gauge (at least 14 AWG).

Q2: Is this safe for marine and outdoor use?

Absolutely. The IP67-rated enclosure protects against rain, splashes, and even short-term immersion up to 1 meter.

Q3: What happens if the input voltage goes outside the 35–60V range?

The converter will automatically shut down to prevent damage. It restarts once the input returns to safe levels.

Q4: Can I use this with lithium-ion or LiFePO₄ batteries?

Yes. It’s fully compatible with 48V lithium and lead-acid systems, as long as the voltage stays within 35–60V.

Q5: Is the 12V output isolated from the input?

No, this is a non-isolated buck converter. The negative terminals are common, which is standard for automotive and solar setups.

Q6: Will it power a 12V refrigerator or large LED setup?

As long as total power stays under 60W and 5A, yes. For higher loads, consider a unit with greater output capacity.
