Up transformer & down transformer 500W voltage converter step-down/step-up

basic information

This transformer is necessary for using overseas electrical appliances that differ from those in Japan within Japan, or conversely, for using Japanese appliances abroad. It is a universal model that allows the use of overseas power plugs without any conversion of plug shapes, providing peace of mind. This transformer is suitable for both domestic and overseas use, with a rated capacity of 550VA and an efficiency of ≥90%. The input voltage can be freely switched between AC100V ~ 110V / 220V ~ 240V, and the frequency is 50/60Hz. The output voltage can also be freely switched between AC100V ~ 110V / 220V ~ 240V. Its dimensions are 215×165×160 mm, and it weighs 2.5kg. The power cord length is 1.5m. For safety, it is equipped with a protective device that blows a fuse in the event of overload or output short circuit, and it is a quiet, energy-saving product. When using it, it is necessary to select the input voltage, as using the wrong voltage can cause damage to the unit, making it important to choose the correct voltage. Additionally, it is recommended to select a transformer with a capacity approximately twice the rated current of the electrical appliances being used, taking into account the starting current of motors and other devices.

Applications/Examples of results

1: World-compatible Japanese electrical products can be used overseas, and overseas devices can be used within Japan. 2: It is recommended to use at a rated capacity of 500W for 1 hour and at a continuous usage wattage of 300W. 3: Safety temperature control protection (thermostat) to prevent short circuits and power overload. 4: Protection function to eliminate voltage drop (to prevent damage and performance degradation of home appliances due to voltage drop). 5: For the transformer capacity, please select a product with a rated current approximately twice that of the starting current of the electrical appliances used, such as motors. 【Features】 1: There is a switch for input voltage selection and output voltage selection. 2: It outputs simultaneously from multiple sockets. (Please adhere to the total rated capacity.) 3: Both step-up and step-down are possible; you can change to the desired voltage using the output voltage switch on the front panel. 4: Thermal protector (overheating prevention device) with built-in auto-reset fuse for safe and secure design. 5: Circuit protector (overcurrent prevention device).

  【Select the Appropriate Voltage Transformer】 Since transformers have voltage losses, choose a transformer with a wattage that exceeds the power you will be using. a: For electrical appliances that do not use motors, please use about 80% of the rated capacity. b: For electrical appliances that use motors, please use about 50% of the rated capacity. * Appliances with motors may temporarily require a voltage higher than what is displayed on the equipment. To ensure safety and security, please consider using a transformer with a capacity of 60% of the rated capacity for power usage up to 300W. (If you are using more power than this) please use a transformer with a higher wattage.

  What is a transformer? When using overseas electrical appliances that are different from those in Japan, a transformer is necessary. A transformer is used to change the voltage, allowing you to connect it between the appliance you want to use and the outlet, enabling you to use foreign appliances with Japan's AC100V power supply. Additionally, with a switch on the back, it is also possible to use Japanese appliances overseas. This transformer is of the transformer type and can be used with all electrical devices, but larger capacity transformers tend to be bigger and heavier, so you need to choose one based on the type of device and its power consumption. Furthermore, this transformer is a universal model that allows you to use overseas power plugs directly, providing peace of mind without the need for plug shape conversion.

  It is suitable for precision equipment such as desktop PCs and office equipment designed for 100V domestic use, high-performance home appliances, medical devices, and gaming consoles. You can use Japanese electrical products without worry, even with unstable power supply voltages in various countries, as they can operate within a wide input voltage range of 100 to 240V. If the total power is within 500W, you can connect multiple electrical products using a power strip or similar device. Japanese home appliances can be used not only for long-term stays such as overseas assignments and studying abroad but also for using overseas medical devices and measuring instruments, product demonstrations, filming, editing, and other business purposes.
