Epoch Batteries 48V to 12V 10A Voltage Reducer | IP68

The Epoch Batteries 48V to 12V 10A Voltage Reducer Steps 16V to 58V DC Down to a Fixed 12V Output for Loads up to 120W

This voltage reducer takes a DC input from 16V to 58V and delivers a fixed 12V DC output at up to 10A, or 120W, with up to 95% conversion efficiency. Its package list names it a DC 36V/48V to 12V 10A 120W converter.

Epoch lists uses in automotive systems, surveillance systems, LED products and LED strips, instruments and meters, and other low-power systems. The aluminum shell is silicone potted and IP68 rated.

Epoch Batteries 48V to 12V 10A Voltage Reducer Features

Wide 16V to 58V DC Input

The reducer accepts DC input anywhere from 16V to 58V, a wide window for higher-voltage DC systems.

Fixed 12V Output up to 10A

Output is a fixed 12V DC, rated at 10A max and 120W. Keep your total load within that rating; larger loads need a higher-rated reducer.

Up to 95% Conversion Efficiency

High conversion efficiency means less input power is lost as heat while the reducer runs your 12V loads.

IP68 Potted Aluminum Shell

Epoch describes the IP68 rating as a waterproof grade that can work in the rain, and calls the silicone-potted aluminum shell shockproof, moisture-proof and dust-proof with good heat dissipation. The case operating temperature is -40°C to 85°C.

Built-In Protection With Automatic Recovery

It protects against undervoltage, overcurrent, overload, low load, short circuits and overheating, and resumes operation automatically once conditions return to normal.

Real-World Applications

Automotive accessories. Run 12V automotive loads from a higher-voltage DC system.

LED lighting. Power LED products and LED strips within the 10A rating.

Monitoring equipment. Feed 12V surveillance systems, instruments and meters.

Practical Comparison

10A Voltage Reducer Versus a Higher-Amp Reducer

This reducer is sized for 12V loads up to 10A (120W). If your loads add up to more, choose a reducer with a higher output rating rather than running this one past its limit.

Buyer Guidance

Check Your Voltage and Load

Make sure your system's highest DC voltage stays within 16V to 58V, including while charging, and that everything you plan to run totals 10A or less.

Prepare the Wire Ends

To use the included quick connect terminals, strip 0.4 inch (10 mm) of wire and insert it into the connector.

This May Be A Good Fit If

• Your DC source stays between 16V and 58V
• Your 12V loads total 10A (120W) or less
• You want an IP68, potted aluminum reducer

Common Questions

Will It Work on My 36V or 48V System?

The input range is 16V to 58V DC and the package list names it a 36V/48V to 12V converter. Epoch doesn't name specific batteries or vehicles for it, so confirm your system stays within 16V to 58V.

Can It Get Wet?

It's IP68 rated, and Epoch says it can work in the rain. No immersion depth is given, so don't plan on submerging it.

What Happens After a Short or Overheat?

The built-in protection steps in, and the reducer resumes operation automatically once conditions return to normal.
