I'm about to buy a 3000 off eBay. It's in America and I live in europe, do I have to buy some kind of adapter so I don't blow any fuses when I plug it in?
Thanks
Depends on the MPC3000.
On the MPC3000 back panel, near the power connector inlet you will see a "
Mains Power Designation" ID. ( the position varies depending on production runs )
[A] = AAL ( USA ) – 110 volts.
[B] = BEAB ( ENGLAND ) – 220-230 volts.
[C] = CSA ( CANADA ) – 110 volts.
[E] = CEE ( EUROPE ) – 220-230 volts.
[J] = JPN ( JAPAN ) – 100 volts.
[S] = SAA ( AUSTRALIA ) – 240-250 volts.
[U] = U/T ( UNIVERSAL WORLD AREA ) 100/110/220-230/240-250 volts.
[V] = VDE ( GERMANY ) – 220-230 volts.
[Y] = CUSTOM – per custom supply documentation.
[E][V][B] 220V-230V Europe/Germany/UK
mains power -----> 220/230-110V
step down transformer -----> possible [A][C] or [C][A] 110V USA/Canada
mains input of MPC3000.
If you are in Europe it makes more sense to purchase a unit from your territory. (
mains voltage compatibility being more probable in this case )
