Has anyone used this as a replacement to a 120v draft inducer? My original is a Jankel J238-138-1344, but it clearly states it is 120v, not 115v.

Your house only produces 110v anyway. You should be fine with the 115v model
1571565
I've seen 120 Volt AC service run from 110V to 125V. My Fasco rated 115v is working just fine.

Yes and it's very quiet easy to install,and a great price you have to replace the gasket i purchase one from an auto parts store that can stand very hot intense heat you will have to trace and cut it out to fit,
1571567
120v and 115v are used imterchangeably. It just means standard AC incoming power.

I just put one in. Works great. There is no difference between 115 and 120 volt motors.

Yes I have its still in operation if you look at your home appliances they state that operation between 110-120 vac so no problem I hope that answers your question :)

My model is DR-988. My owners manual specifies it as a 240 v. 5600 watt heater. I'm not an electrician but I believe the actual wattage is determined by the incoming voltage. My voltage is about 220 so I'm probably getting less wattage since the spec is for 240 volts. Anyway it puts out a lot of heat.

No idea. Its a standard 220 VAC 2hp motor. I would suggest you ask your electricians out there if they can do it. Worst case scenario, you could buy a 2hp motor in your country and replace. Trouble with this lathe is, if you ever have anything internal break on it...they offer no means to get replacement parts to assist repair. In essence, you are stuck with a rather large and heavy paperweight that you cant do anything with. I made the mistake of buying one of these and had a gear break internally. I was polishing a rod of stainless with it when it happened, not working it heavy. Anyway, cant get replacement parts. After a year of fighting with them to get a replacement part, I gave up and bought a Jet lathe. I will never buy Central Machinery again. BAD IDEA IF YOU DO!!!!!

This curling wand is intended for household use. Use on Alternating Current(60 Hertz) ONLY. This unit is designed to be operated at 120V AC. P.s this is from the Operating Instructions from the product. I hope this helps.

Amazon kicked my reply back, probably because it had a web address in it. Check out irrigationdirect.com They have the transformer/power supply. 21.50. Check the internal fuse first.

I have this appliance and like it very much. It is my second one in approximately 15yrs. It has a US-style electrical plug; which is to say it is designed for use with 120VAC outlets. I have successfully used similar dryers/curling irons with adapters while traveling in several western European countries and elsewhere in the world and don't remember any problems - but only while traveling. I can't say if this will work well on a long-term basis. Good luck!

Many thanks for your query. I have no idea - I haven't got the typewriter yet. I know how to use it, but not the technical stuff. I was trying to establish whether this converter would cope with such a presumably powerful typewriter to convert a 2 pin US plug to fit a 3 pin UK plug and convert UK 240 volt current into US 110 volt current, without blowing up the typewriter! I don't want to buy an expensive vintage typewriter for it not to work at all in the UK. Many thanks, Sylvia

I really don't know. I did send one unit back to Amazon as I kept blowing the breaker. This happened with two units. Progressie Dynamics sent me a unit after I talked with them. I finally saw that the heavy wires were the 12 volt, not the 115 as I thought. It was clearly maarked too! Since wiring the unit correctly it has worked perfectly. I have had it at least 2 years if not 3.

Sounds like a question for an HVAC specialist. I am not, sorry.. I only did enough research to meet my needs and am not knowledgeable about other applications of this inducer.

I wired my motor for 220v. Let me check the specs (including breaker) and get back to you later tonight or tomorrow.

The big question is: Now that we have burnt out something inside the main unit, can we replace this unit with one that has been made for 240V? If anyone knows where we can source the main body of the machine with a 240V rating, please let me know. Thanks

Sounds like a wiring fault to me (perhaps a 120V heater hooked up to 220V?). I've used this thermostat with an oil-filled heater with excellent results, and with other, non-oil-filled heaters, with no funny business of any kind.

Lyle I had the same problem on a 120v line. The pressure got so high it burst a section of pipe. You will find the contacts are pitted or burned, If not check the spring action it may be jammed.

Douglas, I bouth the A143 draft inducer blower through Amazon. It was listed as a direct replacement for the Jakel J238-138-1344 (mine was a J238-138-1344M) and it works okay. Look for your Jakel number in the listing at Amazon or cross-reference with a Fasco number then to those listed at Amazon. The motors do not come with a gasket, I used the highest temperature rated permatex silicon for a gasket.Hope this helps.Paul

The machine I have is 110/115V. Seems to me that you would burn that version out on 220.

Yes, that's exactly what happened to mine too. I had a 120v one which I was pretty sure may not be able to handle the equipement I had - the filter, pump and heater. I dismantled my broken one and looked at the back and saw that it had a similar voltage rating to this one and so i bought this ... installed it myslef and worked fine for the last few months now!

As long as used with the correct voltage, it should work fine. My whirlpool is 110/120 Volt, and it was a perfect replacement. Good luck
