Annie A2-12
Hello guys, I have recently obtained an annie a2-12 compressor tester. Upon reading the instruction manual, I've found out that is the 60Hz only version - a bit disappointing. My question is can I still use it for starting compressors?, as it will be fed with 240v 50Hz. I guess that the other functions wouldn't be accurate because of the frequency change as it is set up for 60Hz, but I only ever use it for starting.
Any thoughts appreciated
Andy

Re: Annie A2-12
Can,t see why you would not be able to use it..
The start bits are only switches and capacitors.

Re: Annie A2-12
Andy,
If a 60Hz unit, will it not be designed / rated for 120v?
This will mean caps (and transformer?) are wrong voltage.
I havent used one of these, so not sure if a transformer is present....somewhere there was a circuit on a previous thread.

Re: Annie A2-12
You can feed it on 110 or 220v power @ 60hz, I still haven't got around to giving it a go but I will let you know what happens.

Dear Peter_1
I am very sorry for the comments I made. By an oversight I misunderstood it. Therefore I would kindly request you to delete the above post of mine.

Why not write or call Thermal Engineering about your question.

Re: Annie A2-12
I have the same unit which my sister sent me from the USA. I have used it as is to start and reverse 240/50hz compressors no prolbem.
If no sure get an old scrap compressor from a dump site and test.
