I have a 48V solar panal do i need my 48 to 12 volt converter or can this handle it?

You will need a 48 v control charger to prevent over charging,,, then a 48 v inverter to a 220 or 110 what ever volts you may need, John

Of course as long as only 12 of those 48 volts get to your plug and what ever 12 volt appliance you plug into the outlet...it might be best, if you don't understand minor electric voltages and batteries that an expert is consulted...otherwise you might burn, short or blow a fuse...hope this helps.

No idea in a solar panel use but they are 12v. So If the panel is 12v you may need to adapt it some how

i use a 400 watt converter which is the max i believe without adding panels...

Sorry, it will not. You need a meter which is calibrated to be compatible with a 12 volt system. You should be able to find one on line as you found this one. Good luck.

Yes, James, it should do just fine, as the 1210RN is rated for 100V of panel voltage. The switching regulator is essentially an "energy converter" where watts-in less conversion loss equals watts-out at a nominal charge voltage. I use two paralleled sets of three 12vdc panels in series which produces about 60vdc open circuit and 36vdc under load (90W). The 100AH 12vdc AGM battery is happy as can be with an approximate charge of 13.8-14.0vdc charge. Best luck - Bill N4LG

Don't really know, but off hand I would say you will fry your inverter. The inverter is for 12V input and a 12V PV panel VOC will run about 18 volts. I have seen this type of inverter in a 24V model which may work. You might be able to find a DC to DC voltage converter to half your PV panel output voltage and double the amperage and that would probably work on this inverter also.

I also bought this . It only works on a 24 volt dc system. Mine was not advertised to convert from a 12 volt dc source.

Can't help on the solar panel. I have used the 12v option off of my house batteries. The unit worked fine

The 12-48v range relates to the battery voltage of your system. The limits of solar input are 4000 watts, 45 amps, 125v. Do not exceed 125 volts for the solar string. Yes, any solar will work if you don't exceed the limits of the device.

No! Techno geeks will tell you yes. Experience tells you no. You need a voltage reducer for a 48 volt system or there is a good chance of ruining it.

Yes. It should work fine in a 48 volt circuit. But if you are using 6 volt batteries you can hook it up to only 6 of them and run it at 36 volts.

It does not support it. My mixer has no switch that enables 48v unless it's constantly on which I doubt.

You won't want to connect the panel directly to a battery, as it could damage or overcharge it. The panel itself only provides a voltage, you need a charge controller between the panel and the battery. The one I used (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HWQZNQ/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc;=1) is not currently available, but should give you an idea of what to look for. You want a controller that can handle at least 30 watts and 17.5 volts input for charging 12v batteries.

You need to buy a 12 regulator they sell for solar panels so it will not over charge your 12 volt batteries.

12 volt battery would be ok. If the source is solar, be sure it really is no more than 12 volts. Many solar charging setups for 12 volt batteries could put out as much as 17 volts.

no just use 1 12 volt battery if you have a 48 volt system or 2 6 volts if you have a 36 volt sys.
