Will motor hold up?
I have a 98 TXT series 36 volt cart. The motor is the stock fleet speed motor. I am going to convert this cart to 48 volts and install a 500 amp controller. I am wondering if the 36 volt series motor can handle the load, or will it fry?
I have read on several other post that 36 volt series motors perform well with the 48 volt systems. So, with that in mind, what is the maximum amount of amperage this motor can withstand under the 48 volt system. |

Re: Will motor hold up?
Your motor will do fine on 48v, if you stay at a 400 amp controller. You can go to a larger controller but just dial it down. Talk to Scottyb and he can point you in the right direction.

This fleet motor can handle the amperage access a 500amp controller provides if you can use it responsibly. Remember the controller only allows access, it does not feed or send amperage. Avoid any stall situation.
