GCON DC 12V to 48V 2A 96W IP68 Waterproof Boost Converter

SKU CH-46AZ-BN7YX

Waterproof IP68 boost converter steps 12 V DC to 48 V at 2 A with 96 W output and 95 % efficiency

  • IP68 waterproof rating protects against dust and immersion
  • 95 % peak efficiency reduces heat and power loss
  • Five protection circuits guard against overload, over-current, over-temperature, short-circuit and over-voltage
  • Auto-recovery restores operation once conditions return to normal
  • Die-cast aluminium shell resists shock and moisture for durable outdoor use

DC 12V to 48V Boost Converter

This waterproof boost converter steps a 12 volt DC source up to 48 volts at 2 amps for a maximum output of 96 watts. It is built for engineers and installers who need reliable voltage conversion in outdoor or vehicle environments.

IP68 Sealed Aluminium Housing

The die-cast aluminium shell meets IP68 waterproofing and resists shock and moisture without active cooling. Over-load, over-current, over-temperature, short-circuit and over-voltage protections trigger auto-recovery once normal conditions return, while peak conversion efficiency reaches 95 percent.

Generator and Solar Input Guidance

The manufacturer notes that pulsed DC from a generator should be filtered with a capacitor before connection, and that a solar panel's open-circuit voltage must not exceed the converter's maximum withstand voltage. Stable DC input within the rated range is recommended for continuous operation.

Questions about this item

How do I wire the GCON DC 12V to 48V boost converter and what input-voltage mistake should I avoid?

Connect a stable 12 V DC source to the input terminals, observing polarity, and ensure the supply never exceeds the converter's rated input range; if using a solar panel, verify its open-circuit voltage stays below the maximum withstand voltage and add a filter capacitor when feeding pulsed DC from a generator.

What ongoing maintenance does the IP68-rated boost converter require?

Periodically inspect the die-cast aluminum housing and cable glands for damage or corrosion, confirm the IP68 seal remains intact, and clean any debris from the fins to maintain the 95 % maximum transfer efficiency and auto-recovery protection functions.

Which limit will I hit first when running the converter continuously at full load?

The 96 W output ceiling (48 V at 2 A) is the primary limit; sustained operation at this level relies on the aluminum shell to dissipate heat, and the over-temperature protection will trigger auto-recovery if thermal capacity is exceeded.
