Overheating and Damage: The primary risk of using a 48V battery with a 36V motor is overheating. Motors designed for 36V systems are not equipped to handle the increased voltage, which can lead to excessive heat generation. This overheating can cause permanent damage to the motor’s windings and bearings, reducing its lifespan significantly.
When you use a 48-Volts inverter, you can use regular and more flexible connectors to connect the inverter to the battery bank. This is so because the thinner the wire, the higher the resistance. And if your DC voltage is lower, you will pass more current through the wires, and they can get very hot, and you lose a lot of battery power.
Looking for a 36 V inverter is often harder than finding a 12 V or 24V inverter since they are less common. Although not used as often, they still serve important roles in mid-range power applications. All of these higher-voltage systems should be used when powering equipment that draws over 3,000 W. Higher voltage is important for several reasons.
Plan before you upgrade. If you consider putting a 48V battery in a system made for 36V, it is essential to check all parts—including the motor, wiring, controller, and safety features—to ensure that the upgrade is safe and effective. A checklist helps.
