UX-1.5K

Outstanding performance & reliability, the unique benefits of the UX Step Up voltage & Frequency Converter
Overview
This series is a double conversion Power Converter which produces stable pure sine wave voltage and frequency output (O/P). With this Converter, you can protect your equipment from most power issues, including power sags, power surges, brownouts, and line noise. With the common neutral topology, the converter provides internal connection from AC I/P neutral to AC O/P neutral; thus, it does not need to use an isolation transformer to provide 0 volt from AC I/P neutral to O/P neutral. This feature will reduce the interference to loads of communication or video systems.
Features
  • Outstanding Performance & Reliability
  • Common Neutral, Double Conversion Topology (0/P Neutral to 1/P Neutral is O volts normally)
  • Wide Range Input Window and Input Power Factor Correction
  • Low Noise, Smart Cooling Fan Design
  • High Efficiency, New Full-bridge Inverter Design
  • Automatic Restart After Overload Shutdown
  • AC Input Generator Compatible
  • Multifunction LCD Screen

General

Can I run a 50Hz motor on 60Hz supply?

Running a 50 Hz motor on a 60 Hz supply will make it run
about 20% faster. This can cause extra heat, vibration, and reduced torque
depending on the design. Some motors are built for both 50/60 Hz and will work
safely, while others may wear out quickly or fail.

To ensure proper performance and protect your equipment, we
recommend using a PowerXchanger frequency converter.

Can I use a PowerXchanger to convert 50Hz European equipment to operate in U.S. 60Hz factories?

Yes, that’s exactly what PowerXchanger is designed to do. It converts both the voltage and the frequency so your 50 Hz European equipment can run reliably on U.S. 60 Hz power at industrial and factory sites.

This ensures motors, tools, and sensitive electronics operate at their intended speed and performance. Always confirm the voltage and power rating of your equipment to choose the right PowerXchanger model.

How do I know if I need a frequency converter or a voltage transformer?

A voltage transformer only changes the voltage, while a frequency converter changes both voltage and frequency.

If your equipment label shows it supports both 50/60 Hz, you usually only need a transformer to match the voltage. If it specifies a single frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz only), then you will need a frequency converter to run it properly.

Always check the rating plate on your device to determine which solution is required.

Returns and Refunds

How do I return a product?

Items must be returned within 30 days after receiving your order. Items must be returned in the same condition in which they were received, be unworn/unused, have any tags still attached, and include all the original packaging.

How long will it take to receive my refund?

Refunds are processed within 7 days from when we receive the item(s).

Shipping

How long will it take to receive my order?

Standard shipping normally takes 3-5 days. Next day shipping is available on all domestic orders (for an additional charge). International shipping times depend on the products and destination (estimated at checkout).

What countries do you ship to?

We currently ship to the United States, Canada, Australia and the UK. To enquire about shipping to a different destination, please contact us.

Technology

What is the difference between a voltage transformer and a frequency converter?

Voltage transformers adjust the voltage level (e.g., from 230 V down to 110 V), protecting your devices from overvoltage
damage.

Frequency converters ensure that the electrical frequency (50 Hz vs. 60 Hz) matches what your device was built for.

Why does the frequency matter?

Because so many devices, from washing machines and CPAP
Machines to audio equipment, kitchen appliances, and tools all rely on precise
timing or motor speed governed by the mains frequency. Run a 60 Hz-designed
motor or compressor at 50 Hz, and it will spin slower, draw more current,
overheat, or fail altogether.
