Step-Down transformers are for changing 220-230 V,
50/60 Hz current to 110-115 V to permit use of standard
equipment with foreign electrical service. Each model is
housed in black metal case and has 3-wire cord and
receptacle. Transformers change voltage only, and standard
60 Hz motors run slower and hotter on 50 Hz current.
Therefore, use of transformers with motor-operated
equipment should normally be limited to small fractional
hp sizes in applications where speed is not important to
performance. The V-A rating should be at least double the
equipment watts rating. When available, always select an
instrument with built-in 230V/50 Hz in preference to a
transformer.
