RE: How to convert 60Hz machine to 50Hz
If the motor is designed for 60hz operation, it will run at 5/6 of normal speed at 50hz. This will reduce the work done by the compressor. This is true for any fans as well as anything else motor-driven.
It would be much better to get a product designed to run from the appropriate power source.
