Hmm, yes I guess that would work well.

Only drawback is during battery operation at 48v it would drop to 45v 
immediately which is still within the 10 percent over/under at 43.2 and should 
stay in operation.

On a 48v battery system, what is the lower range of voltage for half draw of 
200ah 48v series? It’s not that low, is it?

If you are only using a half amp, 2-3 1N4004 diodes in series will give you the 
drop you need.

Yeah, not sure, but on a FB WISP page I posted about a similar topic someone 
chimed in that they had indeed killed a MetroLinq at over 52v during charge on 
direct battery connection.

That +/- 10% seems contrived.  Like to know what kind of regulator they are 
using.

Ah yes, I guess they are not aware of typical float charge on 48v direct 
battery system and did not include the simple circuitry to limit overvoltage in 
their DC terminal feeds.

Hi,

The maximum recommended voltages for ML2.5 is 48VDC +/- 10%, that represents a 
maximum of 52.8 VDC. I had a case in the past in which the client exceded the 
52VDC and the radios got damage, so I will not suggest to use 54VDC.

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but I’m still stuck on this mini-pop DC plant thing.


Is there a DIN mountable voltage regulator that will allow me to feed load from 
48v battery string without going over 50v at 6-10A?


I’m still trying to power a couple of MetroLinq 2.5 antennas at the site, but 
people tell me they explode if given more than say 52v.


Which means my float battery system will kill the radios if it goes into 
recharge mode at 54v?


Or am I overthinking things?


Looks like to solve this I would need something like Mean Well $100 SD-350B-48 
between the battery array and the load to assure it sticks around 50v.


Is that my only solution here?
