Unicolor Uniroller in EU

[Ales']

Hi, I just got uniroller to replace my jobo.
It arrived from USA with american type plug.
Do anyone have experince of using this 110v motor base in Europe(Italy)?
What type of convertor and for how much power I need to get?
And just to avoid creating the second post:
How much liquid I need to use in 16x20 unicolor drum to develop 2 7x17?
for 8x10 in Cibachrome drums I used 250ml of developer. According to my calculations two 7x17 equals 3 8x10 so it woud make 750ml of developer, but is it enought for such a big drum?
Thanks

You need a 230V-110V (115V is OK too) AC converter. An autotransformer will work, or a step-down transformer, or possibly even an AC-DC-AC converter (the latter might even be the cheaper option these days). The required power is on the bottom label of your roller base; it's probably 30W or so. Verify before purchasing a converter.
Whatever converter you buy, it needs to take 230V AC on the input and output 110 or 115V AC, at the required wattage (plus a decent margin; let's say at least 50%). It's likely that any type will work OK. Technically it will need to be 60Hz AC on the output but I doubt the roller base will have a problem running at 50Hz.

When the USA went to a national grid the West was 50 Hz, Eastern and Midwest was 60 Hz. Legend has it that San Francisco dumped thousands of electric clocks and the like in the ocean when 60 Hz was adopted

I have one and besides from the voltage it has synchronous motor and if you use it on 50Hz it would run a bit slow but I don't think it matters.
