Converting 220V 50Hz to 110V 60Hz

[dpbours]

<p>@Jay,</p>

<p>I do speak German (being Dutch), but I have to apologize that I can't really write it...</p>

<p>But I searched for Jobo spare part lists on the Jobo site and looking at the parts that can be replaced on different models and being an electronics engineer from background, I have a good guess of which part will be critical and which one not towards using a transformer.<br>

The difference between the CPP and CPA have already been discussed on various forums and the spare part lists reflect that this discussion is correct.</p>

<p>So what does the data plate really say?</p>

<p>When I live in Germany in the 80's we had a bell & Howel 8mm movise projector that was 110v 60 Hz. I used a stepdown transformer 220 to 110 to use the projector. It was running on 110 50 Hz. After about six months the motor burned out and I junked the projector.</p>

<p>If the motor is not markerd 50/60 Hz expect it to fail when powered by the wrong AC frequency.</p>
