Hi
I bought a kitchen aid professional 5 series from the US, its 110 volt 450 watts, I wanted to convert it to 220 volt, as I dont a large transformer sitting in the kitchen, how can I buy spare parts to replace the electrical inside?
Thanks
Hi guys,
The only available Kitchen Aid stand mixers on the European markets are the Kitchen Aid Classic and the Kitchen Aid Artisan.
The best way is to contact a Kitchen Aid service center / repair facility in your area.
Here is the European website of Kitchen Aid: http://www.kitchenaid.eu/eu_EU/ka/ka_europe.htm
If you bought a different Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer (like the Professional series) you probably won't find the required parts to convert it to a European model. The only way would be to use a voltage converter.
I hope this helps.
Another thing I like to mention:
The Kitchen Aid runs at 110V/60Hz, the European voltage is 230/50Hz. The voltage converter would be able to drop the output voltage from 230V to 110V but the frequency 50Hz will still be the same. The Kitchen Aid motor is designed for 60Hz. The lower frequency could eventually overheat and damage the motor.
It depends if the motor is or not asynchrone

Hey everyone... I just did a successful conversion from kitchenaid 120v to 220v. All you need are three items: the 220 V armature (spinning part of the motor), the 220V field (stationary part of the motor) and a new phase control board. This will only work with certain mixers listed in the links provided. I used goodmans to source the parts and the manual to change everything out! You can change the plug as well but I just used a standard us to uk adapter. As well, EU regs require an RFI filter... I figured I would just not include that part : ) http://www.kitchenaidparts.eu/documents/pdf/service-manual/classic-svc-manual-new-email-version.pdf KitchenAid mixer electronics electrical components at Goodman

Thanks for the help, tips and reply I wish you could just add pictures of the parts, may be a links to the parts one by one, there are only 3 as you mentioned. possibly a youtube tutorial. As the names are not exactly same, for example field part of the motor, there is no field motor with 220v , there is one with 240v and I am not sure if that is the correct part, if not I don't want to say bye to my brand new mixer.Seeing is believing.People may not find enough courage to do it without being sure about the right parts
Hi Mate,
can you please send me links for the 3 parts?
my kitchenaid is 6qt.
thanks,
eliran.
Would any one be able to advice what parts to get to convert my kitchenaid ? and other small appliances as well? ( I have breville, instant pot, omega etc) Have to move to Europe and it's my lifetimes worth of equipment !

same problem for me too
I bought it in the US and need to use it in France ...
110v 60hz juicer having series motor burned. want to rewind it for 220v 50hz. what turns ratio should i use?
I have the same problem- a professional series KitchenAid. Although, I don't mind a large converter hanging around- but I am worried about the frequency issue. Is there anyway to deal with it- as I need a large mixer for my business.
Get another one and hook the power cords together in series and always use two, or hook a 120V toaster in series with the mixer :)
Get another 120V mixer or a 120V toaster and connect the power cords in series and you are set :)
James I have a new KMS154GBQ2SA mixer want to take it to europe and convert it here I saw your post and found some parts at Goodmans. They offer zero help, assistance or support. Can you tell me if this unit can be converted with those 3 parts? And what are the part numbers?
Contact [email protected] or google Lanas Kenwood spares and send a message there. They sell conversion kits and have full knowledge.
