LED Gas Price Signs Controller box/Power Supply - 450 Watts

The GLS‑888 450 W Controller Box and Power Supply is a heavy-duty, high-capacity solution engineered to power and manage large LED gas price signage systems. Designed for demanding forecourt environments, this 450‑watt controller offers reliable 24 V DC output, secure communication capabilities, and rugged field construction—all within a weather-resistant, service-friendly enclosure. Constructed with thick-gauge steel and finished in industrial-grade powder coating, the enclosure is built to endure years of outdoor exposure. Fully sealed to IP65 specifications, the unit offers complete protection from dust, rain, salt spray, and environmental contaminants.

A gasketed front-access door provides quick and safe entry for inspection or maintenance. Inside, sensitive electronic components are mounted with vibration-damping fixtures to withstand physical impacts and temperature swings common in canopy or wall installations. The internal 450 W power supply delivers ample low-voltage DC current capable of supporting twelve full-height 8‑inch LED digits and additional fractional or mixed-format modules. Dedicated fused outputs ensure even power distribution to each digit string, preventing voltage drops and ensuring consistent brightness.

Fuses are located on a service-accessible panel, making replacements fast and avoiding the need to power down the entire system. A universal AC input range from 100 to 240 V with 50/60 Hz support allows flexible application across global installations. The controlled power output is paired with a passive cooling system: strategically placed heat sinks and ventilated housing dissipate heat silently and without moving parts, minimizing maintenance and extending component life in ambient temperatures spanning from –30 °C to +60 °C. Integrated RS-485 communication enables wired connection to point-of-sale systems, forecourt control units, or centralized pricing software—supporting automated, synchronized updates.

For remote control flexibility, an optional RF module can be added. This provides encrypted wireless price adjustments from ground level using handheld transmitters or centralized dashboards. Secure communications prevent unauthorized tampering, while an onboard event log retains time-stamped pricing changes for performance reviews or audit compliance. An LED diagnostic panel inside the enclosure displays real-time voltage, current draw, and fault codes, enabling technicians to identify potential issues quickly. All wiring is UL-rated and clearly labeled to meet electrical and safety standards.

A detachable AC terminal block provides simplified, tool-free connections, while a dedicated grounding lug supports code-compliant installation. Installation is streamlined with universal mounting options (canopy, wall, or equipment rack). The unit is supplied with a machined drill template and mounting hardware to facilitate quick setup. Pre-assembled AC and DC wiring harnesses reduce installation errors. Gasket-sealed cable glands prevent water ingress at entry points. Optional tamper-resistant fasteners, door locks, and anti-reflective faceplates add security for unmanned or high-traffic site installations.

Designed for scale and future-proofing, the controller box supports not only fuel price displays but also temperature and telemetry sensors, security system integrations, and signage expansion. The modular scale allows stations to grow or update configurations without replacing the core power supply. This unit is compatible with any fuel pricing display system, including displays for regular, mid-grade, premium, diesel, fleet, or alternative fuel types. It supports both gallon and liter formats and integrates seamlessly with digital sign formats and legacy mechanical replacements.

Ideal for single-site operations or regional rollouts, it supports retrofits and new constructions alike. Comprehensive documentation—including installation guides, wiring schematics, and troubleshooting protocols—comes standard. Technical support is available via phone or email for setup assistance, firmware configuration, or performance guidance. The controller box includes a two-year limited warranty on power supply, electronics, and enclosure, underscoring a commitment to long-term performance.

As a central hub for power, data control, and diagnostics, the 450 W controller box offers unmatched capacity, environmental protection, and field-serviceability. Its high-output power architecture, secure connectivity, and smart thermal design create a foundation for dependable LED sign operation. This system empowers operators to deliver clear fuel pricing with real-time updates, minimal maintenance, and consistent visibility—ensuring smooth forecourt branding and customer trust across any gas station setting.
