The built-in converter was developed by JP de Jong Parts.   

First of all, I have a few questions for you. What is the exact type number of your machine? What is the year of construction? The model number is located at the bottom of the base. We can only convert the types with tilt heads 5KSM125-195, KSM90, K45 and the 5KPM5 models with our built-in converter.  

American models often do not have a 5 in front of the model number. We do not leave this up to the customers themselves because a triac also has to be soldered to the PCB. Placing the print is only possible on machines equipped with carbon brushes that are visible on both sides.  

The costs are only for installation where the shipping to you amounts to € 20.00 in the Netherlands. Higher shipping costs apply abroad. To the EU €40.00, to the rest of the world €100.00.  

If you have more questions about our converter, we would love to hear from you.

A lot is written about it on various forums and we are often asked about it. That is why we would like to clarify how you can connect your Kitchenaid or other device that requires 110-115 Volts to the socket here in the Netherlands. To make it work like it does in the US.  

Below is a brief explanation of the how and what.    

There are standard so-called moving transformers with a real transformer on the market and electronic transformers that are sold as moving transformers.

The advantages of moving transformers with a real transformer inside are that they always provide the correct output voltage to your device. 

The disadvantages are the high weight and the space they occupy. 

There are also electronic transformers that do not contain a transformer but an electronic circuit. We will not go into more detail about the shape of the electronic circuit because this is a complex matter. 

The advantages are that they take up little space and are lightweight.

However, the disadvantages are greater than you initially think. there are models and brands on the market that automatically switch to the so called correct voltage. Often they respond too late, causing your device to fail. The electronics are then destroyed because protections, capacitors, resistors, etc. burn out.

They also sometimes cause a lot of interference on the mains so that, for example, a high interference can be heard on the short wave band. This disrupts emergency services, police, fire brigade and aircraft traffic. 

The LV Yuan transformer of 1000 and 3000 watts that we now offer is one with a real transformer, so with the disadvantages and more importantly the advantages. Equipped with all inspections such as a CE inspection. At the bottom of this page you will find the original user manual and the declaration of conformity regarding the CE marking.   

It can be used in the Netherlands, but can also be used in the USA by turning the switch on the back and with the correct connection cable. Suitable for operating devices that are standard 110-115 volts in the Netherlands at 230-240 volts, but also the other way around, so for a device that is 230-240 volts to operate on 110-115 volts in the USA.
