Live in US(110/120 60Hz) does this unit change 60hz to 50hz to accommodate strict 220v 50Hz german appliance?

To date I have not used mine. I am hoping to change 110 to 240 power, but not sure when I will get time to work with it.

No, it does not. Cycles per second or hz are established at generation. This unit converts voltage only via a simple transformer. To change frequency you must "regenerate" your power. Check out this link for more info : http://www.georator.com/Frequency-converter-basics.html

I'm in South Africa with 220V 50hz. Works hundreds. Check the model spec though.

The unit itself has a dedicated 110V wall-wart transformer. It won't run on 220V/50HZ without being attached to a converter. If you really wanted to use this unit overseas, you'd need to find a comparable replacement power pack over there... it likely would not be difficult to find... the unit runs on 12VDC & has a very common connector, similar to what many automotive devices use.

Transformer will convert 110 volts to 220 volts OR 220 volts to 110 volts. It will not convert Europe 50hz to US 60hz. If the mixer has to have 60 hz, the transformer will not work.

On the back of the amplifier it says 110-120 volts AC, so I would assume you can't use 240 or 220, however it does allow 50 and 60 hz frequency.

The one I have appears to only accept AC 120V 50/60Hz. I am guessing that there is a non-US model that accepts different power input.

It is 120V 60Hz 86W. There is no way to change the Voltage or Frequency as you might do with more sophisticated electronics to accommodate other countries.

No, it is only rated for 120V-60Hz. A step-down transformer would be required to use it at 220V. If the 220 volts is 50HZ that is probably not a problem.

Everything on the unit and the manual indicates it will only work with 120V ~60Hz. I cannot find any mention of 220V.

I guess the problem is not just the voltage conversion (from 220v to 110v), it is the frequency that cannot be converted from 50Hz in Europe to 60Hz (what the trimmer needs).

I would contact the manufacturer, American DJ, and ask the technician. But I would assume with any electronic device that runs on 120v ac, one would need a converter to change to 240 volts.

The actual unit requires 18.8VAC, 13.5VA. Mine came with an AC transformer (wall plug) to convert it to that voltage. I don't know if 60Hz or 50Hz is critical because they probably convert it to DC inside the unit. You might have to call the company.

In my country I use it with 220 V,50Hz.I dont recall the specific properties written on the box.

A rating plate on the bottom of the appliance states "120V 60Hz 700 W" -- hope that helps.

No, absolutely not. It converts between 120V 60hz and 220V 50hz and back. You can buy converters for Japan and the US. Thanks for the lesson that Japan stands as yet another differing standard. Interesting

No, it can only be used with 110-120V 50/60Hz (according to the manual, and the label on the bottom of the base)

You might be able to with a transformer/converter,(220 vac to 110 vac). but I do not know how the 50hz power in Germany will affect the motors and the electronics. You can contact Traeger support. They should be able to answer both power questions. http://www.traegergrills.com/support or Customer Service: (800) 872-3437 5 AM - 7 PM PT | 7 days a week
