Our transformers are center tapped and yield 120 from center tap (neutral which is grounded at the entrance panel), this yields 120 between phase and neutral. Phase to Phase is 220/240 so Hz. Your motors should run without any problems, they will be 6/5 faster which also speeds up the fan and cooling. We use to ship overseas to 50Hz systems and had to oversize the motors because of the associated cooling problems and lower RPM. Since we were OEM we got verification from the manufacturers. | |
