Could this device be adapted to Europe? Is there a possibility to transfer to the European standards, f.e. 220 V and 50 Gz

Hi Liza. Do you feel comfortable using a transformer? If you do, then yes, it could be used in Europe. I know people who have used their KitchenAid products in Europe. Enjoy!

I have no idea; someone on this list should be more knowledgeable about international standards...good luck!

I went to this web site: http://www.kitchenaid.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/OCManualsLiteratureSearchResultView?catalogId=10552&langId=-1&storeId=10202 Their in the PDF's marked as version "1" I found a page that said the device worked only on 120 Volts AC and 60 Hz. If have Amazon type this in the search window "Simran AC-5000 Step Up/Down Voltage Converter Transformer 110V/220V - 5000 Watts" right now it is $161 Dollars US. This contraption will allow you to power up ***any*** American made device, less than 5000 Watts of coarse. Many of the hotels are putting smaller versions in their rooms for their American patrons. I traveled a bit before I retired and I noticed American products tend to be cheaper, so the investment up front for the transformer could be big savings down the road of time. You order the outlets from Amazon and have a dual power grid through out your home. One 220/50Hz and one with 120/60Hz. I hope this was helpful.

I know we can use electronics in Europe with adapters, but this wouldn't work without something to cut the power in half. It is 110V.

110V only cannot be used in Europe. Of course there is an adapter that you can buy to convert the voltage to 220V.

I'm not sure what you're asking. This unit will convert US power to European power or vice versa, as long as you have the plug adapters. If you have a power supply that accommodates either (like with most laptops) all you need is the plug adapter to make it work. We used the TriGear unit to power the chargers for our US cell phones and cameras in the UK. It would also work in the US to power items designed for use on 220/230 volts.

It can be used either in Europe or the US. The one concern is the power supply. Voltage in the US is 115/120V, voltage in most parts of Europe are 200/220V. You can purchase adapters which can handle the different voltage supplies, so that's not a limiting factor.

Hi, I only used equipment from Europe and didn't try the option. I'm sure it'll work good. I didn't have any problem so far.

Only if you buy a 220 to 110 transformer - like you would if you were going to Europe.

On the bottom of the battery charger here is what is listed for Input: 120V~50-60 Hz / 50/60Hz 240W, so I would say NO it would NOT be usable in Europe with 220V.

It works with European voltage and hz but the plug configuration is different so you will probably need an adaptor to go from US to European plugs. These are available with voltage converter sets or free standing.

Sorry, I live in the US. Do not know how it would work in Europe. I like my machine. Phillis

The power module mine came with is only for 120 volts AC. You might be able to find an adapter which in essence is a 240v to 120v transformer in Europe.

The particular adapter is rated to work with 220V/50 Hz but you would probably need to buy a plug converter.

I have one and it is not. You would need to use a converter to use in Europe.
2125749
You can if you purchase or own a converter. The plug itself is standard American. I'm confident that the power specifics fall within the accceptable European range.

Hi there - it is 120V only which I would assume means that it can not be used in Europe without a converter.

I think you would need a converter for the plug, just like the ones used for most U.S. appliances in Europe.

I suppose you should be able to, if your power supply outlet happens to be 110V/60Hz. Else you may have to buy the 240V/50Hz version from Amazon.com (if available) or from Amazon in UK. A way around it is to have a voltage converted.
