Will the motor work on 50Hz electric supply? The product page mentions 60Hz.

50 Hz Is a little low. If you are running a generator, I would dial it up to 55 Hz if possible. Running that low of current might burn the motor up because it won't be enough power to turn it.

Yes. It will work on 50 or 60 cycle, and 100 to 240 volts. From the website: * Multi-voltage operation: AC 100V-240V 50/60Hz You will have to turn it upside down though...(joke).

A transformer will be necessary. But, more importantly with a motor is the Hz. Unless the motor is designed for the frequency (which is 60 Hz in the US), the motor will run at speeds other than intended. Many countries use 50 Hz.

In general, most produces with an electric motor can only be used at 110V, 60Hz - or at 220V. But, not both.Most non-motorized products can be used at either voltage.

I don't know what you mean by "switch" between 50 hz and 60 hz. I haven't read or seen a manual for this unit, but I would assume the unit can be powered by a 50 hz or 60 hz power supply. Its made to use electronics from 220 volt countries here in the USA and vice versa.

Because it is a motor, you will not be able to get its full potential using 50 hertz power. It will still work just not at rated speed.

The plate on the motor says "120V~ 15A 50-60Hz" so no it cannot. 120V is all it will accept

Unfortunately we only carry this model in a 120-volt 60-hertz setup and our voltage converters will not handle the three motor load. Thank you, Michael H. Dan's Fan City

Obviously, it must be selected for 110V operation as 220v would burn it out rather dramatically. But 50 Hz is the frequency in Europe, 220V here in the US is still 60 Hz. In fact house power arrives as a 220V (60 Hz) circuit that is split into 2 x 110V lines (still 60 Hz) - there is no change in frequency. Secondly, there are only certain types of motors which are affected by frequency, ...these typically being so-called 'synchronous motors'. I've run saws from my generator all day - which uses a substantially square wave output (true sine wave generation is more expensive) - no problem. A power transformer by the way does not change the frequency - unless it is also a converter having batteries and active circuits for regenerating the sine wave output. I'm an electronic engineer by trade. Hope that helps.

yes, It will accept from 100-240V at 50/60 hertz. This sub will travel well.

I looked on the box and it shows only 60Z @ 240 and 208 volts. No mention of 50Z

Hi, I don't know for 60 Hz, but it's working for 50 Hz in an european country with a small adapter to support the 230 V :-) Otherwise this product is working flawlessly, I'm very happy with it !

It should work on 50 or 60 hz power. I have mine on 110/120/60Hz and works well.

120 volts AC it will work on 50 or 60 hertz or cycles per second. now if it was a clock that used the cycles per second for the seocnd hand to move then it would have to be 60 Hz.

Hello, it is working just fine for the US power rating of AC 120V/60 Hz. I am unsure whether it is also usable at 220V/50Hz. You might want to consult the manufacturer at scbp@ymail.com.

No. Both the motor and at least one of the drive sheaves would need to be changed to run on a 50 Hz system. Buy a machine built for the European market.
